      Good squirrel hunting on public land?

      You guys have any suggestions? I'm in Damascus (upper Montgomery County) and looking for a place to do some squirrel hunting with a 22. I don't have friends in high places so I need work with public land. Where can I go to have a fair chance getting squirrels?

      HD shotgun question.

      I just picked up a cantelever rifled slug barrel from tss1004 , (great guy to do business with btw), and as I was cleaning it and putting on a red dot today, my mind hatched a silly question. Once the red dot is zeroed, is there any benefit to using that barrel as the HD set up with 00...

      I'm so dang smart, sometimes it's scary...

      So I was cleaning up a little and came across a couple of these guitar hangers I had lying around. These are cheap little things you can pick up in a music store to hang guitars on your wall for display and space savings. Then I realized it would also make a great way to store the HD shotgun...

      Was just watching Tales of the Gun...

      I was just watching Tales of the Gun on History channel, and this episode was about million dollar guns. Anyway, they were discussing the Walker Colt and they made the claim that the 44 caliber Walker Colt in 1842 packed more of a punch than a modern 44 Magnum. I find that a little tough...

      Dad dug out an old 22 revolver...

      Dad dug out an old 22 revolver the other day that he's had stored away forever. It was my grandfathers apparently (he died in the 70's) so Dad has had it stored in for a while, at least since my grandfather's passing. I can't find much about it. The only thing I know from calling around is it...

      What am I doing wrong?

      Actually, I am sure I am doing everything wrong, a better question might be how do I shoot this d@m thing? I picked up an old Browning compund bow off of Craigslist the other day for $20.00 to learn how to shoot a bow. Went to Dick's and the guy measured the draw weight, etc and hooked me up...

      New (to me) Blackhawk range report

      Finally got to spend some time with the new member of the family, a Ruger Super Blackhawk in 44 magnum. All I can say is, WOW - I was not expecting that kind of recoil! I always thought the talk of magnum recoil was more bluster than anything, but I'll tell you what, it takes some getting used...

      Aim Surplus and montgomery County...

      Hey, I just found out the Aim Surplus will now ship ammo to Montgomery County!! For a long time, those of us in the communist mecca here in MoCo were out in the cold with ammo shipments...not no more! Yeah, happy days, I thought I would pass on this little bit of info to my brethern trapped...

      Ok, tell me your thoughts on this...

      Bear with me now, but I am brainstorming here: What comes to mind when I suggest single-action revolver in 44 Magnum as a home defense/night stand implement? Pros and cons, please. Thanks.

      Handgun transfer question.

      After reading through older threads, I believe I have come upon the proper answer to my question, but I wanted to post my specific circumstances and see if everyone comes to same conclusion. My aunt has a Ruger Blackhawk in .30 carbine that she inherited from her husband (my uncle) when he...

      A crazy observartion at the range today.

      I was at the range today with my son and we were passing time with the 22s and I noticed something that both thrilled and amazed me. When shooting a 22LR at 100 yards, one can actually watch the bullet through the scope. At first, I thought I was seeing things, but if you really concentrate and...

      Legality and sensibility of keeping a firearm at work with owner's permission.

      I am the operations manager of a service oriented business in Maryland and we just had to fire an employee today. He got very upset this morning when it all came down and is of the mindset that he did nothing wrong to get fired. Now I do not think he has any violent tendancies, (mostly just self...

      Hello all. I just found out about you guys from the tag line in a post on Rimfire Central, this place looks like a great local resource for Maryland shooters new to the hobby, (which I am, both a Maryland-er and relatively new to guns and shooting stuff.) Anyway, I look forward to getting to...
