      Safe places to live in Laurel/Fulton/Columbia area?

      I’ve put in for a position at JHU Applied Physics Lab. Home is in Deep Southern Maryland, so if I got a job, I’d have to find a place to live. Any places to avoid? My needs would be simple…more of a room to stay for the work week than a permanent home. But I want something safe.

      CMP Just Allowed a Second 1911

      If you were considering a CMP 1911, they just put out the information for Round 4. They are now allowing people to apply for a second 1911. Details here. The application window will close at the end of September. The same PITA process, too. It's still collector pricing - if you want a...

      What are you going to do in the winter? Watch the television...or hone your pistol skills? I can tell you what I'm doing...and it doesn't involve sitting on my duff watching the idiot box. We've got the 2022-23 air pistol schedule at the 12th Precinct Pistol Club in Harwood, MD (~10 miles...

      Thinking About Teaching a W&C Class...need a reality check

      I'm considering teaching a W&C class or two in the September/October timeframe (I'm headed to Germany in August). After reading the W&C complaints threat, it occurred to me that it might be advisable to structure it as two classes. One would be for HQL holders, would skip the basic "the...

      Got my renewed W&C - Unrestricted! :-)

      I've had a W&C based on my job for a while. It came up for renewal at the end of May, I submitted my application 28 May (I was hoping NYSRPA v Bruen would drop before then). I just got my new permit...with no restrictions. Very happy.

      Have MG prices gone up, or are sellers nuts?

      I'm browsing through GunBroker ads for subguns, and the prices being asked are insane. As in ~30% over what they were a year or so ago. Are these actual 'getting' prices, or is this just another example of sellers with fantasies?

      9mm PCC - MP5 clone, MPX, or what?

      I'm looking for a 9mm braced pistol. Range toy/home defense, my competitive focus is elsewhere. I'm looking at MP5 clones (probably PTR), the Sig MPX, maybe Angstadt Arms, maybe the AK-V...but I'm not hard-over. Not a super-big fan of 9mm ARs, but I won't discount them completely. I'd...

      Starting to plan my escape to WV...how's Martinsburg?

      I'm getting close enough to retirement to start seriously thinking about plans for my escape from Maryland. Sometime between late 2021 and early 2023. My ideal would be to move to Winchester, VA, but Virginia is becoming more hostile to gun owners every year. So I'm now thinking of the...

      Thinking about selling the Uzi...

      About four years ago, I picked up a Group Industries Uzi for a "reasonable" price. But it's been a total safe queen...I live in Deep Southern Maryland, there's no place to shoot the blasted thing. And I'm tempted to sell it, try to put the money into something I'd be more able to shoot...

      Which AK-74 to put up for sale?

      I'd like some input here...I'm considering selling one of my three AK-74s. But which one? I have: 1. Arsenal SGL31-68. New in box. I looked at prices on GunBroker and they are sky-high. 2. Krebs Saiga conversion. I haven't shot this, either. 3. A generic AK professionally built from a...

      Beretta 1951 - Who's got the best?

      I'm considering snapping up a Beretta 1951 while they are available. Who's got the best? It seems that there are several distributors who have them...but the "VG-EXC" they are marketing is more of a GOOD ranking, from the photos I'm seeing. Thanks.

      How frequently should I call ATF?

      I've had a can in the Form 4 transfer pipeline since June of 2019. Called ATF at the end of last month, it's still "pending". How often should I call them back? I haven't done so yet, but thirteen months is excessive even for NFA paperwork.

      Recommendations for arm-braced AR pistol upper, 5.56?

      Question...I'm considering doing a braced AR pistol build on a lower I've had for years. This would be a suppressed gun, with the suppressor left on probably 80% of the time. 5.56. Any recommendations? Thoughts? No, I'm not interested in a new caliber. TIA.

      Sig P365 XL roster submission?

      Does anyone know if the Sig P365XL has been submitted so we can buy one? Or should I start thinking about what it's going to take to get a sample? (Have I mentioned how much I detest that particular bit of legislation?)
