      Shipping a C&R firearm to me

      For the first month that FFL EZ-Check was available, you COULD validate a C&R license number. But, some folks thought that this compromised their privacy, so DOJ limited the search to 01's only. Obviously, the fellas with the bulges in the cheap suits didn't see where 03 licensees were a...

      non regulated firearms tracking in MD

      Does anyone remember the "beltway sniper" case in October, 2002? MSP knocked on the door of everyone who had bought an AR-15 AFTER THAT MODEL HAD BECOME A "REGULATED FIREARM". Those who owned an AR-15 when it was just a "rifle" didn't get visited. Federal law prohibits the federal...

      ? on UMMC Emergency Room

      Why? Because a couple of hospitals have had a gun shot victim in the ER due to gang violence; when the perps found out he survived, they went into the ER to finish the job.

      Maryland CCW for FFL

      I would be surprised. Things change with the administration at the Handgun Licensing Section, but, going in public with valuable items has not usually been considered a substantial reason. If so, you could claim that guarding the expensive jewelry your wife wears is justification for a CCW...

      Dear Washington Post: no a .22lr is not a high powered rifle, Hearing Protection Act

      The democrats in Congress have often used deliberately misleading names for their legislation. The "Affordable Care Act" was supposed to make medical care so expensive that it would become unaffordable by working folks.

      WV firearms dealer won't sell to MD resident

      Not uncommon. A lot of folks used to become dealers because they liked guns. But, they find out that the "firearms business" is 10% guns & 90% business. Not only do you have to be a "people person", but you need to be able to read & comply with some pretty complicated legal procedures. So...

      Cast away from HoCo!

      I found a good transfer dealer in the EC area: http://www.eaklefirearms.com/default.html and, a good stocking dealer in Columbia: http://foxfirearms.com/ The closest indoor range is Continental Arms in Timonium. They run a tight ship, watching new shooters carefully. (Some folks don't like...

      M1 Garand trigger guard; latched or unlatched in storage?

      Never seen a problem with storing them latched, but I DID see a couple that were stored unlatched & could not be latched until the lock up area was sanded. I suspect that it depends upon the moisture content of the wood. US arsenals used to sand many stocks for rebuild use, & that included...

      I anyone else cyber stalking thier reps FB pages asking about 2A?

      Most of my reps get defensive when I suggest that they follow the Constitution & laws of the US. Changing their minds is a lot like trying to teach a cat how to sing: It is a waste of your time, & it annoys the cat.

      Antics From MD - Tax Returns for candidates.

      FIRST, I want to see a certified (impressed seal) copy of Obama's birth certificate. THEN, I'm willing to talk about other requirements.

      Yugo M59 SKS value?

      Yes, you will not find exact prices on the M59/66 rifles sold, even if you look at the Gunbroker COMPLETED listing. I suspect that's because a lot of buyers & sellers don't really know how to tell exactly what they are looking at; some buyers overpay, some get bargains. The "arsenal rebuilt"...

      Colt Cobra is back!

      Meh. It wouldn't be the first time that Colt showed a prototype, displayed a new gun in their catalog, and ----- nothing. They gave up on the Pony, & folks had to wait for the Mustang to be developed. As with older S&W's, folks will continue to chase the older Colt revolvers. "Keep...

      Shipping a handgun do's and dont's

      Federal law requires that there be no marking on the package that indicates that the contents is a firearm. You may need to alter the name of the addressee so that it is not readily deciphered. Next Day Air is required by Fedex & UPS for handguns. I've never been in the back of a Fedex hub...

      Anybody know laws of selling a lower to a CA resident?

      A receiver IS a firearm, under both Federal law & state laws. Although Federal law permits a nonlicensee to transfer a firearm to a dealer in any state, CA requires the firearm to come from a dealer. So, you would want to ship through Steve or another dealer. If the buyer hasn't already said...

      Ellicott City

      The Ho Co school system consistently rates in the top 3 systems IN THE COUNTRY. Your wife may find that a deciding factor. But, you need to know, lots of Asian immigrants specifically seek housing in the Centennial school district. Their kids are under tremendous social pressure to succeed...

      HQL 30+ Days

      You will need to become familiar with state law AND the pardon process: https://www.dpscs.state.md.us/publicservs/pardons.shtml You also need to know the difference between pardon & expungement. You need a pardon to be able to possess a regulated firearm; you cannot get your record expunged...

      Powder Storage

      If you have black powder, then a storage cabinet may be a good idea. But, all I have is a few lbs of smokeless powder, which is quite stable. I just keep it on a shelf in a closet.

      Expungement website

      Ummm, yes, they have a nice form. Call me suspicious but, does this remind anyone else about the places that would sell you an FFL application kit, when you could get the same information from ATF for free? Thanks all the same, but I would go to the government source...

      How Not To Approach Police
