      Elk Neck arrest for "transfer" of high capacity magazine: Fact or Fiction?

      Hey guys, it has been a while since I've really posted here. I've had a lot of stuff going on with work/military/personal so "free" time hasn't really existed. That being said I wanted to check here as I could not find anything other than an empty ARFCOM thread about a disturbing story I heard...

      MD LiveScan

      Am I correct in understanding that all NFA paperwork must now include LiveScan fingerprints instead of the paper prints? Follow-on question: does CJIS in Riesterstown do LiveScan or does it have to be done at the Glen Burnie location?

      Check out my new "Glock"

      After sitting in the tattoo chair for almost 10 hours today I felt compelled to post these. My new "Glock": Done in the style of H.R. Giger's "Birth Machine" seen here: (Obviously that piece itself didn't take 10 hours, it's part of a half sleeve)

      Seventeen shot stop - a look at caliber and capacity

      http://www.policemag.com/Channel/Patrol/Articles/2012/02/Shots-Fired-Skokie-Illinois-08-25-2008.aspx Key points (IMHO): First off what an amazing story where the good guy used his training and his own willpower to successfully defend his life and return home to his family. But...

      EXPERTS! Let's Play "WHAT AM I WORTH"!!!

      So I have a friend who is helping a close friend sell their husband's firearms. The husband has passed and the wife just wants to see the guns go to a good home, but the friend does not want to short-change her on the value. He asked me to give my two cents since he knew I was into shooting a...

      Who's got CZickness? I do, I do! (PICS!)

      Finally back from my yearlong mission in Egypt and picked up my new pistols. CZ-75 Tactical Sports in 9mm and CZ-75B in 9mm (gift from the girlfriend.) The CZ-75 TS is a fantastic pistol, but it's going to take some time to learn. With a trigger weight that is measured in OUNCES it takes...

      AAC Ti-Rant .45

      So I have a buddy looking for a can for his 45ACP (H&K Mk23) and from what I have heard the AAC Ti-Rant 45 is the quietest. I have no experience with 45 cans so I really couldn't offer him a whole lot in opinion. What are you guys' thoughts? Worth the money or look for something else? If...

      GSSF shops in W. VA?

      I have a military friend who lives in W. Va that is interested in purchasing a Glock. Anyone know of any GSSF shops in the state that will offer him GSSF/LE/Mil pricing? Nate

      MGI Hydra Modular System

      So they made the magwell removable: http://www.mgi-military.com/index.php?id=27&sub_id=17 Not surprisingly there isn't much info on the system, but it looks like the magwells can be removed to swap calibers. The lower itself is a steal at $499 (or about the price of a complete upper) and each...

      YHM Phantom 7.62 QD or AAC 762-SDN-6

      Ok, so beyond the obvious weight difference between the two is the AAC worth the extra dough? It looks like the AAC does not offer the same claimed reduction in sound, but how do they compare for the money in terms of quality? The platforms I intend to suppress with whichever one I buy will...

      Grip serrations rant

      So here's something that bothers me in general: Why don't more pistols come with grip serrations from the factory? Seriously, is it that difficult to machine a few lines into the front and back straps of the grip? Maybe I'm just griping, but I can't believe the majority of shooters...

      Mossberg 590/835 barrels interchangeable?

      Like the title said are the M590 and Mossberg 835 barrels interchangeable? Obviously there's the loss of being able to chamber 3.5" shells either way (M590 w/ 835 barrel or 835 with 590 barrel) but will it work?

      Ultimate Home Defense load: Fed LE132-1B

      Federal is working on a new home/self defense load based on past testing of buckshot terminal performance. The new load, LE132-1B, will utilize 15 #1 buck pellets (.30 caliber) in the Flite Control wad in a reduced recoil cartridge. Why this over all others? According to testing done by the...

      Ammo forum?

      I'd really like to see an Ammo Forum in The Arsenal. There seems to be a different ammunition thread started every few hours in the rifles/pistols/rimfire/shotgun areas and I feel a dedicated forum (where these threads could be moved) would allow users to discuss ammunition-related topics...

      Gemtech Trinity upgrade

      So I have a Gemtech Trinity that I bought back in 2008 (iirc). I wish I had gotten an SWR Trident, but I'd rather not buy another 9mm suppressor and I don't plan on selling mine because the return on investment for resale is horrendous. So I'm stuck with the Trinity. The catch is Gemtech doesn't...

      Birthday gun!

      My insanely awesome girlfriend bought me this for my birthday: Obviously I can't have it for a while and it's still technically hers, but she sent me pictures to my email. Awesome! :thumbsup:

      Old Painless from Box O' Truth revisits the Judge

      If any of you follow The Box O' Truth you'll know the creator did a first impression of the Taurus Judge a few years back and found it proved a poor self-defense platform. Here is his first test: http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot41.htm Well sounds like (not surprisingly) he had quite a few...

      Favorite dead/dying/rare cartridge

      The .327 Federal Magnum thread (found here http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=63713 ) got me thinking, what is everyone's favorite dead/dying/obsolete cartridge. Post your favorite, your opinion of it's current life expectancy, and why it should be fondly remembered. My favorites are...

      9mm AR15

      So what is EVERYTHING needed to build a 9mm AR15. I haven't gone down this road yet, but I'm thinking it'd be a fun project. It's going to be an SBR, but I didn't see a point in posting this just in the NFA section. So what do I need? Nate
