Just wanted to say hello and post first time and show my first ever firearm. This is my Springfield Armory XDM-40 with DPM Systems Technologies Ltd. Recoil Reduction System. I love it!!
IWLA Rockville Chapter (located in Germantown off of Waring Station near the intersection of Clopper Rd.) http://www.iwla-rockville.com/ If you're looking to join somewhere where a membership is required.
I'm a member there. Have been for a while. You can shoot almost anything there, but the rifle house is more suited for bolt guns. Usually people use it to sight in their hunting rifles. I use the pistol range (50 yard) and trap range all the time but I drive to Cresap for rifle shooting. Still, it's not a bad setup for being right in the middle of Germantown . The ranges are only open on the weekend, but if you are a RO
They also have a pretty nice archery range with 3D targets and a simulated tree stand, a private lake with bass and trout open to members only, and plenty of hiking trails. You can also hunt on the property (11 acres) if you are a member.
Welcome! And awesome choice of firearms you have there! She does look lonely without .357SIG and 9mm barrels to keep her company... I have both for my XDM. .357SIG gives you another choice of defense ammo and the 9mm gives you a cheaper 'plinking' option, though you do need to pick up 9mm mags.
