      Shotgun Sight Thread Length

      So, first time I'm replacing a bead sight on a shotgun and I noticed the threading on the Meprolight sight I got is a bit longer than the factory sight that came with my 500. When fully threaded in, it sticks out just under 1/32" into the barrel, rather than being flush like the factory sight...

      Colt D-Frame Confusion

      So, I picked up a Colt Police Positive Special dated 1933 on consignment from United a year or so ago. She was in great condition and looking lonely next to the Nagant I picked up, and I didn't have a Colt yet, so I figured why not? She's a pleasure to shoot and I really got her at a steal, from...

      First Slug Gun - What do I need?

      Walked into Dick's in Frederick (I know, I know) last Friday night and spotted a Remington 870 Fieldmaster looking lonely next to all the Winchesters and Stevens. It was on sale, so I couldn't help myself. This'll be my first 870 (I'm generally a Mossberg guy), and my first slug gun. 23"...

      Modern Holsters for Surplus Revolvers?

      Hey folks, I realize this might be sacrilege to ask, but I'm looking for alternate holster options to typical WWI-WWII European revolvers; namely, the 1895 Nagant, Mle. 1892, and maybe a Webley Mk IV? Probably sounds weird, I know, but I'd prefer to keep the vintage holsters in better shape...

      Ruger American Ranch - Loose Magwell?

      Hey folks, anyone else having issues with a loose magwell on their American Ranch in 5.56? There's barely any play from side-to-side, but the mag can rotate several degrees back and forth when inserted with the bolt open; it makes it really difficult to get a new round into the chamber without...

      Stupid question: .308 vs 7.62x39

      Just wanted to put this out there to confirm: I'm guessing a 7.62x39 muzzle brake cannot accommodate a .308 unless the device is specifically labeled to be ".30 Caliber"? My calipers are busted, but according to wikipedia, there's several thousandths' difference in bullet diameter, right?

      CDS Tactical 870 MOE Grip

      Hey folks, This is why you read when you order stuff, instead of going by the picture: I've got a new CDS Tactical Products adhesive grip pack that fits Magpul MOE pumps for the 870/Tac-14. I meant to order the one for the 590 instead, but it was 3AM and I wasn't paying attention. No point...

      What is this abomination, and where can I get one?

      I was looking at Henry Long Rangers since they just put out a new model, and this thing popped up in an image search. My first thought was maybe a Ruger, judging by the magazines? I can't seem to find anything beyond this single photo, and it's locked behind Pinterest's registration wall...

      So many 92s, so little time.

      Hey folks, I made the mistake of watching Die Hard a few times around Christmas, and now I've got Berettavirus. I've been looking for a while now, and I think I finally want to pick up a 92, but I can't decide which one to get. I definitely want one with a rail, but I don't see myself using a...

      Mechanic in Westminster?

      Hey folks, My brother's new to the Westminster area, and is looking for a general mechanic within that part of Carroll Co. Can anyone recommend one?

      MD Legal or No? Landor Arms TXS 804

      I know the regs on MSP's website say that a shotgun with a revolving cylinder is illegal in MD—because obviously every shotgun with one is a Striker-12 or Streetsweeper, and yet I know I've seen Rossi .45LC/.410s for sale in-state before. So, then, where does this guy fall in? Kinda annoyed...

      Ranges that allow target/buckshot?

      Hey folks, So, I'm looking for a range that'll actually allow me to practice with different home defense loads, rather than just slugs. I know AGC has trap and skeet, and the shotgun patterning range (though that's appeared to be out of order the last few times I've been there), but I'm...

      1885 Low Wall in .410

      Picked up this little beauty today, an old Winchester 1885 Low Wall chambered in .410; from what I've been able to find on the serial number, looks like she's either an 1890 or 1891. I'm gonna have a gunsmith check it out first before I even think about shooting it, but I'm wondering if...

      Shelf Life on Fiberglass?

      Hey folks, So, a relative of mine has an old fiberglass recurve that's probably about 50 years old at this time. It hasn't been strung in a long time, so I'm wondering if it's safe to even try? From what I can tell, both limbs are fiberglass with a rubberized handle in the middle. Not sure of...

      Trouble with Proven Arms & Outfitters

      Hey folks, Not sure if I just had a bad experience, but you might want to think twice before ordering from Proven Arms & Outfitters if they say they're putting your purchase on backorder. I suppose you could say they've... proven less than reliable. :lol2: To make a long story short: I ordered...

      RDB or CETME-L

      Hey folks, So, I'm in the market for a non-AR semi-auto in 5.56. I've narrowed it down basically to the Kel-Tec RDB 20" or RDB-C model, or a MarColMar CETME-L. Don't have any experience with either rifle, but I've heard good reviews about both. Unless there's a third option I haven't...

      Encounter at the AGC Pistol Range

      Hey folks, So, I noticed the forum for the AGC isn't available for posting anymore, and I wasn't really sure where else to put this. Long story short, kinda got into it briefly with a dude at the AGC Pistol Range this weekend who just straight up ignored a cease-fire call. It's been bugging...

      Potential Concealed Carry Suit in the Works?

      Hey folks, Just got the following from Firearms Policy Coalition, so I figured I'd post it here. Looks like FPC might get getting ready for another lawsuit, now that Barrett's been sworn in?

      Tube-Fed Rimfire Over 10 Rounds?

      Hey folks. So, I was all geared up and ready to order a Henry Pump-Action in .22 Magnum; I've been drooling over one of these on Sportsman's Guide for a few months now, they're finally back in stock and I tried to order one. Turns out SG won't ship it to MD, presumably because of the magazine...

      HQL Training Exemption

      Hey folks, So, I'm trying to get a family member set up with her HQL, but before we go spending money on fingerprinting and all that, I wanted to ask about the training exemption. Back when I applied for mine, I followed the advice on a thread here and took my Texas Hunter Safety course, and...
