      Are complete Aftermarket 10/22 receivers OK in MD?

      Normally that would be my go-to move but these days it seems every FFL interprets things slightly different from one another. Figured I'd post here until I have a chance. Assuming there's several FFLs here as well.

      Are complete Aftermarket 10/22 receivers OK in MD?

      I was just looking into rebuilding one of my 10/22's and noticed that this TacSol Takedown receiver is labeled as "Not legal in Massachusetts and Maryland" on about a dozen websites. They wont ship them here. I have no clue what about this makes it a no-go here or if it's just an error from the...

      Cheapest AR you’d trust?

      This. It goes back to my QC beef. They pass down that troubleshooting to the consumer and their chosen gunsmith or their own bench. These rifles aren't truly complete off the rack until they've been vetted like this. I've seen missing gas blocks, detached gas tubes. This is such a critical...

      Cheapest AR you’d trust?

      Data on the dollar amount these company spend on PR campaigns? No. I don't know how to quantify it. I've spent years seeing the advertising, reading their Descriptions of their weapons, paid write-ups, Customer Service reps fighting off critics on the internet etc. Its hard to miss it. These...

      Cheapest AR you’d trust?

      You're 1000% right. Most people won't shoot 20k rounds through a rifle in their lifetime. Especially if they accumulate many rifles like most of us do. This kind of goes back to what I'm saying about buy once cry once. The only repairs or replacements that I want to make is a rebarreling...

      Cheapest AR you’d trust?

      I was suggesting that Colt commands a price far higher than I put their quality. They are decent rifles. Heirloom longevity would relate to a lack of stacked tolerances that degrade the reliability of the rifle faster. This can be a common issue with cheap ARs. A rifle worth handing down that...

      Cheapest AR you’d trust?

      I think the cheapest I'd go with where you start to see a duty level of quality with heirloom longevity, I'm a buy once cry once kind of guy, would be around the 1300-1500 range. AR15s are a serious weapon and the QC and machining involved should not be taken lightly. Too many companies pass the...

      Liberals looking for guns

      I see this as a great opportunity to change minds, not revel in others facing the same headaches we do on a regular basis. The 2A community can never be too big.

      Buying too much ammo?

      Ah, that makes sense.

      Buying too much ammo?

      I thought they all have to ship with ordnance labels on the box

      Buying too much ammo?

      I'm flattered you remember! I am pretty well stocked(if one can ever have enough) at the moment, but I just may take you up on that!

      Buying too much ammo?

      I only buy loosies, that is to say one round at a time. I keep a low profile. I do it 10,000 times a year though. It's killing me in gas and shipping
