      Making Wood barrel vice blocks

      Thx. Horizontally was my thought as well. You mean there aren't a lot of 92 ⅝" diameter trees to make studs from . Hell, it's a small block of wood. If it breaks, just try the other way. I overthink things too much, lol.

      Making Wood barrel vice blocks

      I need to get front sight off sub2000. I need to hold barrel in vice. I was going to try to make blocks from wood. So the barrel is about 9/16" diameter. Plan is to drill 9/16" hole in block of wood, then cut wood through the hole. The 3/16" thickness of the blade will mean that 2 sides will...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Think of it this way- If you are shooting at 200 yards, where does the barrel need to point? up above target a little. where would scope point? It would be on target. The further distance, the more barrel needs to point up. Do you have enough adjustment in scope to keep it on target as...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Interesting. Goes to show you how long ago I started thinking about getting good 22lr cause back then, it was only Mesa. They opened the OH site in 2020. Interesting to note that they suggest rifle have 750 rounds before testing. You read that right-750. For now maybe I'll play with my...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Something not mentioned about ammo. When i started looking into 22lr, i learned that Lapua has a program where you send your gun, or make appt and take it with you. They set your gun up in a test stand and test fire different types/ lots of their ammo. Then give you ability to buy bulk of...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      I was same place as you trickg. First thought about RPR. Then was organizing old issues of American Rifleman and in May 2023 issue there was article about getting started in long range rimfire competition. I have it if want to browse it. They mention CZ, Bergara, Tikka. Looked at them a...

      Shipping guns?

      Thx all. I had tried to call ffl before i posted but he wasn't open. I sent email and he said i could get a box. He was open tonight but I couldn't get there. I may try Hanover Armory on way home tomorrow. Thx for the offer of packing, but Huntingtown is almost hour and half away. I should...

      Shipping guns?

      Purchased a bullpup shotgun online from Palmetto State Armory and sent to FFL. Got it home and noticed finish is blemished. Manufacturer sent me RMA and UPS label. I have the box it came in, which has zip tie that holds gun from moving around. Is that the way they usually ship them, or do...

      MD Handgun Lock Exchange

      Still have it, but there are cable locks that are acceptable. I found that I had one that was on list and just took it last purchase.

      SB387 "Public Safety - Untraceable Firearms" - The Ban on Private Firearm Making

      I'm shocked it fit! I thought way back on this thread it was felt that it would not and therefore they couldn't be registered. Seems like ages ago-137 pages!

      SB387 "Public Safety - Untraceable Firearms" - The Ban on Private Firearm Making

      MD format or ATF? I can't recall what each was but I know not the same.

      SB387 "Public Safety - Untraceable Firearms" - The Ban on Private Firearm Making

      First call would have been to polymer 80. Don't think those parts are prohibited? A full kit is. Can't buy full kit since June I think. Lot of companies just don't want to work through maze of regulations in some states. Lot of companies won't ship any handguns to MD even though the gun...

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      Don't see P365 on their site? Did you have to have special made? I don't see any pics of someone wearing holster on site, just a bunch of them sitting around. I guess try web search. I go GAOS every year. Never really looked at holsters cause I didn't think getting permit was in the...

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      A little more info from both would be nice. I have friend that has an Alien Gear IWB for his Walther ( not sure of model but a 40 S&W) and loves it and recommended them.

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      Maybe alien gear belly band? Can be placed high up if prefer. I have thought about one but let's just say I've put on a few pounds over past 2 years ( I'm blaming covid!) And I am at the point that my current girth requires a certain size band but if I loose 10-15 lbs, it will be too big. I...

      WV Non-Resident CCW Permits Coming Soon

      I would guess regular means WV resident permit. usacarry does say that MN accepts WV non-resident. if you find out otherwise, let us know.

      Which micro 9mm to buy?

      I held one at GAOS. I liked the feel in my hand. But already have p365. It is too narrow. But a hogue grip sleeve made big difference. Wish I could try wilson combat. Taurus just came out with xl version. Longer barrel but I think frame is same.

      Concealed carry and alcohol

      If you are drinking and involved in an incident, hopefully you will get the Paulie P. treatment. You know, wait about 2 1/2 hours before getting a blood sample. Now that is a privilege!
