      Open Carry?

      I don't know if anyone posted about this already recently. I'm wondering who is going to dare open carry on their MD permit. I read it's not allowed to be "showing" at MD rest areas. So, when will the meet and dine gatherings start? Red counties only, blue not exactly recommended. Maybe Garrett...

      my annual begging thread lol

      Once again, I am looking for a place to water trap, wether its just mink and raccoon on a smaller stream, or beavers and otters on something bigger. I seem to only get properties with no streams, or lack of "minky" wetland. I haven't caught a mink since 2009, and I like eating the meat of...

      Anyone here taught a pup to find shed antlers?

      My old dog died 2 months ago, so I got a blue heeler pup shortly afterwards and of course I want to train him to find sheds. I found an amazing shed about 4 years ago at a farm I trap and could never find the other half. I hated that I could not find the other side. My eyesight sucks at distance...

      Harford coyote #2

      I finally connected on another one, 3 years later, same farm. 27-28 pounds male. Stubby tail, clip out of top of ear, and a broken back leg that healed. Weight indicates young animal. But he sure went through some crap in his short life. He was probably raised on all the chickens though, so the...

      i want to trap a mink

      If anyone has a farm or general large plot of land with a stream near Havre de Grace I can trap, I am interested. Last time I caught a mink was 2009 and I have a hankering that won't go away. Bonus is if you have a large feeder creek that goes into Deer Creek. Deer creek is full of mink and...

      "nobody uses those to hunt with"

      LMAO- um yes we do. 1 of 2 does I got today. And my goodness that .308 makes a big exit hole. I used American Whitetail, can go look to see which/what later.

      soft mount taxidermy

      This is a big trendy thing for a certain subset of young women these days. I've been doing mostly these the last 2 years, as a bulk of my business. I've been mostly doing commissions of foxes- and now wolves! I can do a bear this way too, but have not had someone with a bear skin ask. I can't...

      MD medical cannabis growers and may-issue

      Not sure if this has been discussed before, but with the growers about to start growing, and since banks will not deal with them due to fed law, how will they protect their money and product that the state has made legal for medical use? Will MSP issue carry lisc's to them or what? It seems in...

      I guess I should have gone out monday...lol

      Deer jerks! Him and a spike plus a doe or button buck also, around same time. This bigger guy hung around a while too. Most activity still all at night, and visits seemed to stop the 6th in the am ( close to hunting time in morning), so I assume that means they ate all the corn. I can try...

      Nocturnal deer jerks lol

      I put my camera out 24 hours to see what nearly ate all my corn in one night ( 15 pounds or so). This amount usually last 3 days or so. I was expecting to see a pack of raccoons or a mob of a dozen deer at once, that a neighbor's hog maybe got loose, or a bunch of wild turkeys who don't scratch...

      more AR build questions

      Ok, I got the lower done except for the buffer assembly. I need to buy this part, and wondering if the run of the mill el cheapo will do. This is for an AR pistol. What brand is good? Next question- is there another tool that can be used for the castle nut tightening? Some common tool? If...

Well I put the spring in and the other piece in over it and pushed it in and... it isn't bouncing with the spring and it's stuck, so I push...

      Mechanic's valley bridge in North East open yet

      Anyone who live around there in Cecil, is the bridge work done yet? I like to turn there and use the back roads to get to my land in Elkton, and have been bummed about taking 40 all the way. Of course they will now probably do the next bridge up from there next...

      Why do they hate us so much?

      My never ending stay-awake-at-night overthinking fest...wondering just WHY Democrats running this state HATE us gun owners so much. Is it 100% political or do they all really deep down inside really just hate us? And why do they hate us? I've read a few pieces written by people who used to be...

      old friend needs AR help

      I was shocked to find that one of the last people I would think would buy an AR has bought 1. I may have been the influence LOL. He sent me these questions. I think I know what he is talking about, but thought I should run this by the MDS experts. "Hey what's up! I just got my first AR I'm...

      red dot for shotguns part 2

      Well I bought the First Strike red dot sight and have put it on the gun ( but not loctited and screwed everything down good). I am wondering 2 things: 1- location of sight- ok the eye relief seems perfect for me at this, as seen in pic, just checking to see opinions. But a riser would help I...

      red dot for shotguns

      Specifically at this point, for a "turkey" gun. I bought a Mossberg tactical turkey 12 ga, and was told it would be even better with a red dot sight rather than the tru-glo irons. There are drilled holes for scope mounting. The gun is for predator hunting at this point. I found this at SG...

      slug gun shooting

      Long story short, someone stole my tree stand ( it was chained and locked and they had to cut that and it would have taken time to take it apart and had to be 2 people with 4 wheelers), and I can't hunt on the ground with a gun on my land. I posted my calamity on my FB page and 1 of my FB...

      my Harford fox trapping off to a good start

      I have 1 farm so far to trap, and in 10 days of checks have gotten 4 red fox ( all nice and healthy, no mange), and 2 raccoons. I am happy as can be! Much closer than my land in Elkton, which makes trapping a PIA, plus is wooded, not some big fox run like on farmland. I have also met a local...

      Harford county coyotes

      Trotting through, might be back sometime. I have traps set for fox there, but they are coyote traps with coyote staking systems. Bunch of red fox tracks and almost had 1 today. These are big dogs- big tracks. I had it confirmed they are def coyote by some veteran coyote trappers in other...
