      Generic holster recommendations for undetermined sidearm overseas

      I'll be traveling overseas and will be provided a sidearm upon arrival. I will not know what it is until I get there. E.g., it could be anything from a 5" 1911, a 4" or 6" 38 spcl or .357 Magnum, a G19, or a stubby S&W J-frame style, etc. I need to be prepared with an IWB and an OWB holster...

      Polymer 80 frame and jig resin codes

      Does anyone know the resin identification codes of the P80 frame and jig? I would like to put some in a MoCo blue recycle bin but don't know if they're acceptable. I don't see the triangle with the number in it anywhere. I decided against calling our centralized county call center (MC311) for...

      recommend a dash cam

      In the following thread there was mention of installing dash cams in one's vehicles. https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=251207 I've been thinking that's a good idea for a variety of reasons. Ideally I'd like 360 degree video but getting all the necessary cameras correctly and...

      AR pistol: angled grip, hand stop, or nothing?

      A friend suggested installing something on my AR-15 pistol with a 10.5 " bbl to protect the support hand from sliding past the muzzle. So far it has seemed easy to keep my hand safe. But I thought I should consider his advice. Do people recommend an angled grip, hand stop, something else or...

      AR-15 Pistol Backup Sight Recommendation?

      I'd like to add backup sights to a 10.5" AR-15 pistol in 5.56. It gets very hot near the muzzle. I am considering Magpul MBUS but am wondering if the polymer can withstand the heat. Any experience with this or recommendations? I'm not looking to spend a whole lot on something I don't intend to...

      seen a SB Tactical SBA4?

      Has anyone personally seen a prototype SBA4 from SB Tactical? It seems they've listened to customers from what I've read and seen in SHOT Show 2019 videos, although I'm not sure about the QD socket location and apparent bulkiness. I'm trying to decide on a SBA3 now or wait for a SBA4.

      p80 rails unaligned causing slide binding

      I built a Polymer80 PF940 V2 (full size) using a Brownells slide and otherwise all OEM parts including barrel. The front and rear rails are not in line. This causes binding of the slide. The result is the system will not always go into battery. Lubing and working the slide per P80 advice has not...

      Hello. I'm waiting for delivery of an AR-15. It has a MIL-SPEC, 6-position buttstock. I believe there are quick-release sockets on the left and right of the M-LOK rail at the muzzle. I'd like to be able to quickly attach / detach my sling. Any alternatives to replacing the stock? Either...

      As mentioned in my introduction, I'm getting back into recreational shooting. This week I went to Prince George's Trap and Skeet Center and spent a few enjoyable hours there. It seems to be a nice facility and not too far away. Clay shooting has changed a lot since I shot trap. I'm learning...
