I once owned a 30sf and it felt like I was holding a board - like all Glocks - so traded it off. I have a couple of P80s I put together because Maryland, but don't really like them either.
For .45, 1911 Officer and S&W Shield. The Shield was my first semi auto CCW until the Sig 365 goodness...
Adding some love for the .41. I have a Ruger Davidson 2.75" .41 I carry when fly fishing in NW Montana. Thought about a 10mm, but I like the old school carried high in a chest holster while letting my feet go numb in the north fork of the Flathead river.
Is working in MD and paying insane taxes, housing costs, and anti-2A laws really worth it to you? Do you have kids? Want them learning DEI and possibly anti American ideologies all while you serve America in your uniform?
Lots more to think over besides what firearms you can bring here.
Here in SC we just became a constitutional carry state. Yea me. If you will want a CCW you can attend the 6 hour class that includes a range qualification. It was my understanding SC pretty much laid out the whole 6 hours and certified instructors teach it and then administer a quiz at the end...
Ah, missed that little detail. Geez that was stupid.
For awhile we lived on Capitol Hill. I was working there and wife was at GW lawschool. Stored all my firearms at my mom's place in MD. Well, not all of them. Kept a 1911 .45 at our place in the 200 block of E. Capitol and the wife was always...
Drive. If you absolutely must take those firearms with you, it's not worth the risk flying into DC or having your firearm stolen from checked baggage when heading home.
SC just went constitutional carry. Some state's politicians trust their citizens others don't trust their subjects. The later likely fear their subjects for good reason.
In the older regs there are specific criteria for the size and placement of those signs. It's nothing new. Unlike MD they have the force of law and carrier does not first have to be asked to leave.
Because I use to live there and was active with MSI. Escaped to America last year. Still contribute to MSI because you guys still live in toxic Maryland, that place where corrupt politicians only give a crap about the criminal class who supports them. I like reading the court smackdown Mark...
SC is about to have constitutional carry with free training for those who want it. You guys need to move to America and breathe in some freedom. MD's toxic blue is clouding your brains.
A trained CCW holder will have been taught the laws that pertain to carrying as well as becoming more aware of the dynamics of a self defense decision when someone does use their firearm. Likely these two will reduce the possibility of prison. The other is moving out of a blue state to somewhere...
It's kinda hopeless trying to convince some people that state provided firearms training might be a good thing. For people who couldn't otherwise afford a basic pistol class (see my prior comments about people in my SC class who probably won't hit what they're aiming at under stress) to receive...
