      Making a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 P

      The Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 P is on the handgun roster. Would there be anything legal stopping me from cutting the barrel down on my 15-22 rifle and slapping on a Sig Brace and it being technically considered a 15-22 P? Or cutting off the faux buffer tube and cutting down the barrel on my rifle...

      Legal questions with building a multi-cal AR

      Given that purchasing lowers in Maryland is legal again, I'm considering putting together an AR-15 styled rifle. I understand we can build pistols and HBAR rifles, so long as the follow the copy-cat rules and blah blah blah. I don't need any explanation on that, as it seems to get brought up...

      Joining IWLA of Washington County

      I'll be attending the membership meeting this coming Wednesday, April 2nd, and was wondering if I need anything other than my checkbook for membership fees? Do I require a sponsor? Also, would anybody be willing to give me a tour of the facilities an hour or so before the meeting (or sometime...

      Spotting out ranges near Hagerstown

      Hey fellow Western Marylanders, I'm looking for a range to join around here in Hagerstown. Right now IWLA of Washington County is at the top of my list. Is there any chance that someone could take me there and/or provide some more information about it. From the website, it makes it sound like...

      Legality of a "car gun"

      Since it is near impossible to obtain a CCP here in this fine state, it is imperative to find alternative ways to ensure our protection for certain scenarios. What better alternative than having a rifle instead? With the I-81 shooting and the out of control motorcycle mob attacking a family in...

      Thanks! Great service, and great selection!

      I finally purchased my Hi-Point 995TS from Hafer's today, and I'm highly anticipating taking it to the range! I forgot to get the name of the gentleman that helped me out today, but he looked to be in his mid 20's with blondish hair. He was the friendliest and most respectful guy that has...

      Silly Question

      This is probably a silly question, but I am pretty sure what the answer is. If one were to obtain a semi-automatic variant of an automatic firearm that was manufactured before 1986, would it be legal to modify that firearm to be automatic?

      To buy or not to buy, that is the real question.

      I should buy a Hi Point 995 Convince me otherwise. Or encourage me. Pros? Cons? Is that fancy looking ATI stock any good, or should I disregard the few that say it'll make it blow up? I know that if I want to get the ATI stock, I need to steer clear of the 995TS. What is a good sell price...

      Updating my brother's Remington 742

      My brother prides in his Remington 742, however it definitely looks its age. I'd like to help update it a bit for the holidays, and was wondering if 7400 stocks and forends are compatible with the 742, and if not, are there any black composite stocks for the 742?

      M4 Stock Disassembly

      I've got a plain Smith & Wesson M4 stock that needs disassembled so I can prepare to paint the furniture on my 15-22. I'm wondering how I'd go about removing the entire latch from the stock, so that I can paint it, and what is under the latch. I understand that there's a small pin inside of the...

      Competition worthy ammunition for my 15 22

      There's a CMP rimfire competition coming up next weekend in Thurmont, and I'd like to make it my first competition. I'm not too keen on spending over 20 or 30 cents a round for Eley Match Grade ammunition. I shot about 120 rounds of CCI Standard Velocity from my S&W M&P 15 22 a couple of weeks...

      Questions on building an AR15 style rifle

      Seeing that options regarding AR15 styled rifles are sparse because of the restrictions put into place, I have some questions. Isn't it possible to purchase an HBAR rifle, and then swap the upper receiver? If not, then aren't 80% lower receivers always an option? Also, would an HBAR rifle...

      Is the M&P 15-22 regulated in any way?

      I'm 20 years old and looking to get my first firearm. There's no doubt in my mind that the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 is the rifle for me. My only question is- are there any sort of regulations that would prevent me from getting it since I am under 21? I will most likely get the model with the...

      Best 15-22 For the Money

      What would be considered the best 15-22 for the money? I've heard nothing but fantastic things about the S&W M&P 15-22, and also great things about the Mossberg 15-22. Mossberg's is a bit cheaper as well.

      Post-Ban HBAR Purchase

      I know that HBAR rifles will still be cash and carry after October 1st. I confirmed with an FFL that they will still be able to sell the Smith & Wesson M&P 15 Sport Compliant model (SKU: 811037). My question is, would it then be legal to (either/or): (a) Replacing the fixed position stock...

      Mossberg 500 or Remington 870?

      Which one is better for home defense, and why? I personally prefer the Mossberg 500 because of the ambidextrous safety.
