OK, so, like me, you recently took a class - maybe a good one, maybe like the one I took, not so good. But you did get your MD Wear & Carry permit. So now you're certified ready to carry, to defend yourself and others from the bad guys, right?
Not!
Now you need some actual defensive handgun...
For those new to handguns or who want to attend a much better than average HQL class. My friend and firearms instructor/mentor Kirby Bowling (GAPP Strategies - www.gappstrategies.com) is teaching an NRA Basic Pistol class that also satisfies the HQL class requirement. The class is 8 hours and...
Well, I took the plunge and registered with KR Training for Karl's upcoming Advanced Handgun class on June 11 at the FPF Training Range in Culpeper. I didn't know if I'd be accepted since I'm a relative novice; Karl recommends the class mainly for "shooters at the USPSA B-C class level, or IDPA...
Was just looking at the usconcealedcarry.com web site's summary of "Maryland Gun Laws at a Glance". It made the following statement in response to the question "WEAPONS OTHER THAN HANDGUNS ALLOWED? Can you concealed carry weapons other than handguns in Maryland with a concealed carry [sic]...
Good news: I received the Notification of Approval letter and the HGP permit card from the MDSP today :).
Question: Is there any requirement that I have both my HQL and HGP cards on my person whenever I am wearing, carrying or transporting my handguns (other than under the usual transport...
I just had my W&C permit approved, though I have not yet received the written notification and card. I have a very basic question. Pardon my ignorance, but this is all new to me.
My question is: can a W&C permit holder freely carry a handgun or other firearm in the trunk of his/her car, loaded...
I have a new M&P 2.0 (full size, 4.25" barrel) with lower Picatinny rail that I am considering outfitting with a laser sight -- green, red or -- if they exist and work well -- one that is switchable between green and red.
Wondering if anyone here has put one on an M&P, but also would like to...
I just wanted to give a shout-out to Blade-Tech for a great experience ordering with them yesterday. They are having a very nice Black Friday sale, with 30% off everything (in stock). I placed an order yesterday with them for a holster - their Classic Kydex OWB holster - for my first centerfire...
OK, so I personally am a traditional archer. Have only shot recurves, both in target shooting and hunting. However I have a grandson that I would like to introduce to hunting. His parents are currently against his using firearms, for reasons I'd rather not get into here, but that are...
Having just got my first centerfire pistol, the 9mm M&P 2.0 Metal, and having learned how hard on the fingers it is to load the magazine by hand, I decided my second accessory purchase after additional magazines has to be a speedloader. I'm currently looking at both the Parabellum Designs Ramp...
My daughter in Virginia would like to purchase some factory OEM S&W M&P 2.0 17-round magazines (S&W SKU: 194400000) to use with our new M&P 2.0 Metal. Can anyone tell me a good online source where she can buy these, preferably at a decent discount to list price?
(And yes, though a noobie I did...
Hello all. "Seasoned Citizen", just getting back into shooting in a serious way after a relatively long hiatus. Was mostly into hunting with .22 rilfe, black powder and shotgun, back in the day. Also did some trap shooting at the AGC range in Marriottsville. Three years ago got my HCL and bought...
