      Anyone here have a small towable utility trailer, the kind they sell at the big box stores?

      I'm thinking about buying a small, inexpensive, utility trailer for picking stuff up at stores and garden centers on occasion; drywall, lumber, plants, mulch, etc., as well as taking trash and yard waste to the dump. I've searched the Maryland MDOT site and could not find any info on the...

      Type 03 C&R FFL renewal in MoCo...CLEO is MSP Licensing Division?

      Anyone know who the Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) that is supposed to receive copies of ATF applications for those living in Germantown is? Not too long ago I sent something to the sheriff in Rockville and they sent it right back. You'd think they'd either transfer the supposed documents...

      Looking for an architect or engineer to "sign and seal" a request for a MoCo building permit to divide a room

      My application to erect a non load-bearing separation wall in a back to back townhouse bedroom dividing it into two rooms has been rejected because my file name is too large and because it needs an architect or engineer seal. There's one big room above (master bedroom) and another below (living...

      Know any good internet and cellphone providers in Rocky Ridge, MD between Thurmont and Mount St. Mary's University, East of RT15?

      I've always liked the area and wondering what's available in terms of internet and mobile coverage. While driving around out there, I did see some old satellite dishes, Dish Network, I think, but didn't run across anyone outside to ask them about the internet situation. We would need enough...

      What are the easiest, fastest, 922R parts to SBR a Zastava M92 pistol and make it MD legal and Greta Thunberg approved?

      I haven't worried about 922r compliance parts since the early 2000's and the FAL and AK kits (those were the days!). What's the easiest way to get one of the pistols ATF approved and MD tolerated? Do I need 5 US parts without a muzzle device (or if the muzzle device is welded on), and 6 US...

      Electronic fingerprints for Form 1s and concealed carry permit?

      I'm not sure I'm posting this in the right section, but I'm wondering if I can have one set of electronic fingerprints that'll serve for efiling form 1s and, eventually, for applying for a concealed carry permit? The form 1s are a priority right now and the carry permit when finances are a...

      Where to find a metric hex grub screw for a Taurus PT-917c front sight blade (3mm - X?)

      Anyone know a decent hardware store in MoCo that's likely to have a Metric 3mm, black, grub screw? The sight screw was locked in the sight blade and the blade was loose in the dovetail. Neither soaking in Kroil, nor heat was able to loosen it. I was able to drill it out without damaging the...

      MoCo elected officials passed something prohibiting 80% lowers?

      Wondering if the Red powers that be in MoCo have passed laws against 80% kits and such? I noticed an online seller of P80 Glock-compatible 80% frames has posted that they won't ship to Montgomery County, MD. Thanks for any useful info., and hope everyone is staying safe!

      is there a max barrel length for an AR pistol?

      I know it's too early to be thinking about this, but I'm trying to figure out how best to use a couple of AR receivers bought as a receivers and assembled as braced pistols using KAK braces on smooth receiver extensions. Q1: Is there a max barrel length allowed in MD for pistols without a...

      Is Frederick County any better?

      Montgomery County resident since '83, thinking about buying a small, detached, house somewhere less crowded and not as loud and annoying. I much prefer a rural setting to an urban one, especially in my limited, lower, price range. I need to be within a reasonable driving distance to my elderly...

      Help me select "Pro 2A" Representatives, including judges, this election day!

      A while back I received a pamphlet printed on nice paper recommending I re-elect sitting judges in Montgomery County. Their quick bios read as if it were written for a 4th grader. I figured it's from some non-profit liberal organization. Has anyone here on the Right made a list of...

      FYI, MSP barracks not open for secondary firearms transfers

      Just called the Frederick barracks and the gentleman who answered said none of the barracks are open for firearms transfers, as in accepting paperwork and physically verifying serial numbers for the transfer of a firearm such as handgun from one person to another. I plan on calling one or two...

      Suggestions on FFLs that are willing to ship out of state

      Long time resident. Used to frequent Gilbert's when they were on the second floor of 1776 Plaza, and even gave that big guy that used to work there and/or was Dick Gilbert's business partner, Bart, Burt, don't recall his name but he shot Garands competitively, my Circuit City discount.:D...

      G21 vs G21SF grip; need a little help.

      I've never posted anything like this, but I did allow someone I met here to try out both my Ruger MKIII Hunter and Browning Buckmark Target at the Damascus IWLA to see which he liked better. So, here it goes. I have a Glock 21 with a few mags and I've always wondered what a G21SF felt like...

      9mm 16" AR upper on newer receiver

      I need to know if I can legally use a 16" 9mm upper on a newer standard receiver, bought as a receiver (not rifle or handgun), and with a Hahn mag adapter? Other than the 16" 9mm upper, I would only use heavy barrel uppers, such as an nice old Bushmaster 20". I have some older receivers...

      Please help with AR15 pistol to SBR conversion

      I was planning on assembling an AR15 9mm pistol with an 8.5" barrel and later SBRing it, and just found out that the state of Maryland has restrictions on SBRs, in addition to the Federal restrictions (having lived in MD for 33+ years, and seeing the decline, I should've figured it would be more...

      Opinions on whether the barrel below complies with "heavy barrel"? SPR-like profile

      Guys, from my search here, and in speaking with my FFL, I realize the state police hasn't described exactly what a "heavy barrel" is, and most people seem to think it's better that way. Is there a general consensus on what "heavy barrel" means? I'm thinking of assembling an upper...

      Question about Bushmaster receiver, and pistol caliber carbine

      Two separate questions. I've decided to buy a dedicated lower receiver for that old Bushmaster A3 20" HBAR I've had for years. I'm going to use its lower receiver with as many evil pencil-barreled uppers I can get my hands on, just for the heck of it. :beer: Question 1. Were the Bushmaster...

      Selling a C&R rifle to a state resident without a C&R license

      Guys, A local resident bought a Persian Mauser I had listed on Gunbroker (receiver design dates to 1898 and it fires "8mm" which is not readily commercially available). He does not have a Type 03 C&R License. We both live in Montgomery county. It used to be, all that was needed was a MD...

      Journalist's Guide to Firearm Identification

      My brother sent me this, and I thought it appropriate. I told him it would make more sense if one substituted AK-47 and Glock with "assault rifle" and "automatic weapon". If only once they would get it right! I bet they're often wrong with the other matters we don't know as much about...
