      Online ammunition sales ban in MD?

      This comes up every couple of years... I'll bet you tried to ship to an address in MoCo. If I recall correctly, for a time MoCo tried to ban having ammo shipped to a county address. It may have gone to court and was struck down. Unfortunately vendors heard when it was put into effect but never...

      Knives and Pepper Spray in Maryland

      Going back to the OP... I have an acquaintance who is a police officer in MoCo. One day I asked him about open carry of fixed blades. He radioed a colleague who indicated his belief that a fixed blade out in the open under 5" was legal. My friend then radioed his supervisor who stated 5" was not...

      Florida NON Resident Permit

      I did mine two years ago. I went to the Germantown substation on Route 355 near Middlebrook. I was on my very best behavior. The nice lady behind the bulletproof glass said she'd be glad to help me as she led me into the fingerprint area. I thanked her several times and she did a fine job with...

      Florida NON Resident Permit

      Any police station in MoCo will take your prints for free. I didn't even need to wait. I have a NR FL Permit

      CCW: Is it *that* hard to get?

      I've been lurking around this forum for a while and spent some time at my local range. In both forums it seems to be the local belief that a carry permit is impossible to get. I also hang out with a group of MC friends and mentioned I had a FL permit knowing it was impossible to get a MD...

      Sent My Applications Today

      I believe FL will accept a personal check now. Also, I'm under the impression the training certification is more along the lines of an NRA pistol course and/or the like. If you are referring to the video one needs to watch to purchase a gun in MD this doesn't seem quite the same... my FL...

      What's "legal" in court for home defense

      I guess my question is regarding CIVIL liability and not legal liability. I'm assumming some legal cases are deemed justifiable but then end up in civil court afterward. This is what my question stems from. Let's assume it is a legal kill from here forward... is that scary looking weapon going...

      What's "legal" in court for home defense

      Post your pics! I have an 88 and I was looking at that stock. What else have you done?

      What's "legal" in court for home defense

      That's been my basic belief all along. I think I read in a magazine somewhere (no flames, please) that modifications indicated the user was more willing to harm someone than not. Perhaps it was in a civil context but when you read "self defense" stories written up in reputable magazines there is...

      What's "legal" in court for home defense

      I was at my local indoor range today and found myself next to a couple of young guys with tricked out shotguns; folding stocks, laser sights, etc. I was always under the impression that the courts don't look to kindly on something this tricked out for home defense. They may be technically legal...

      Montgomery Co. & Shipping Ammo

      There are still folks who will ship to your door. Someone needs to be there to sign for it. I'm afraid to say exactly who as that source will likely dry up soon as well. Take a good look around... Dick's had some good prices on 9MM a week or two back if you bought by the case. Bass Pro seems to...

      I'm looking for a good gun belt for OWB carry. Anyone have a good source where I might be able to try something on? I'm looking at mailorder but really want to do more then look at pictures... TIA John

      Frederick Gun Show

      Well, I went today and had a good time. The ammo prices weren't great, the prices on used handguns weren't anything I couldn't find locally and there was an abundance of cheap knives (my other interest). There was only one decent knife vendor. I'm not a long gun fan but everone who was seemed...

      Electronic fingerprinting|Rockville Police Dept.

      Anyone have any experience obtaining electronic fingerprinting by the Rockville Police Dept? I was fingerprinted years ago by MSP and had to wait in line forever... TIA John

      Frederick Gun Show

      Thanks for the reply. I can't get to Dulles this weekend so I was going to go to Frederick instead. Dulles has been mentioned to me at my local shooting range so I'm guessing it is the one to go to. Since I have nothing to compare it to I suppose I won't be too disappointed w/Frederick. The...

      Frederick Gun Show

      I'm new to gun shows and planning on attending the Frederick Gun show this upcoming weekend. Any thoughts on what I can expect? I may be looking at holsters, ammo and maybe another Glock. Will I be disappointed or impressed? TIA (First Post) John
