      Might this case effect the MD ban on carrying in parks?

      Are these places where you fish actual "State Parks" or just other parkland, WMA, county park, etc? Maybe I'm wrong but I read the MD restriction as one on MD State Parks and State Forests, very specific places with a specific designation. Not every park in the state is a "State Park".

      1911 cleaning and lube tips ?

      I did send them photos and they said the same thing. It's almost like a protective temporary finish, you can't feel any scratches.

      1911 cleaning and lube tips ?

      Bought a Wesson 1911 Kodiak last month. Have fired less than 20 rounds and saw wear marks on the exposed portion of the barrel. Called the factory, they said that was normal wear. "This is normal for these pistols, the finish begins to wear where the slide moves around the barrel". I'd be...

      10ga shotgun

      I've shot a lot of geese using my 10 ga BPS over the years. Back in the lead load days the 10 offered a nice advantage over the 3 inch 12 (prior to the 3.5 12 ga) with the 2 1/4 Oz, 4.5 dram-eq load of lead BB shot. Nothing was even close on geese or turkey (illegal today). Later, the 10 ga 1...

      1911 Gun Porn

      Purchased a new Dan Wesson Kodiak last week. Shot it for the first time today. My first 10 mm. Love it.

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      Monday is range day. Hopefully not too crowded. 4 different brands, all 50 Gr. I suspect each brand will group nicely enough, only in a different location. TBD.

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      and I must admit I have always enjoyed using whatever everyone else is not using. .222, 16 Ga, Remington accelerator sabot rounds etc.

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      The three western counties of Maryland offer a 1 week turkey season in the fall. It's the only season where shotgun, rifles and handgus are legal. It's a completely different style of turkey hunting than spring gobbler with a shotgun. Yes a .22 works at short ranges. I took one with a .22 Colt...

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      I did purchse a few boxes of the Hornady from Midway last week. They'll be on the menu this weekend as well. I felt the factory loads of .223 were too heavy for turkey at ranges under 75 yards. Lots of meat lost. I really should be using a .22 Hornet but I did need something for coyotees as...

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      I've finally accumulated a good amout of different brands of ammo and I plan to go back to the range this weekend. My first goal is has been suggested will be to try and see how each brand groups with multiple shots regardless of zero point. The gun is in a stable turret so I don't believe...

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      That's my plan now. Remington.com has the ammo but a problem shipping to my address. No one else on-line has it in stock that I can find. I'll try and fix the address issue next week. Not sure what you see wrong about the date. 9/30/23 Thanks everyone.

      Rifle Zero Performance Question

      Took my new Anschutz bolt action .222 turkey rifle to the range for zeroing yesterday. After zeroing at 100 yards with standard Remington 50 Gr. PSP, I fired multiple set of targets from a turret at 100 yards with similar results. Three Remingtons, a single round of PPU SP 50 Gr and then a round...

      How to add HQL to Carry Permit?

      12 days so far for me for a permit exempt application. Still Pending. When I called they claimed they were "inundated" and it could take up to 30 days.

      Will R77 require any document when I voluntary register a handgun?

      That's the same grip. I just don't have that nice emblem at the top. It hurts my arthritic thump joint holding that follower down for the last few rounds. Interesting in that my mother always told me she simply walked into a Dart drug store in downtown Washington DC, purchased that gun and...

      Will R77 require any document when I voluntary register a handgun?

      Most times I just use it to repel cyotoyes from my favorite Western Maryland turkey hole but I did take a fall turkey with it in 2019. Loading it is painful so I may have to give the SpeedBeez a try. Thanks.
