      Aviation Assemblers (GE Aviation)

      Thanks for the info. I work over in Frederick as an A&P Assembler at Triumph Aerospace, and the factory is closing this fall. There may be a few of us looking for work up that way.

      Is joining Lifetime Fitness worth it?

      If you live around Frederick, take a look at Soldierfit over by the golf course. They have MMA, kids club, a crossfit style gym, and a boatload of classes everyday. Plus a groupon deal for $39. I've built up to 3X a week and it gives me everything I can handle. All body types in the class. Prob...

      Armed Self Defense in the Home 4/21

      I took the Armed Self Defense in the Home course with L5 at the Machine Gun Nest back in the fall. Honestly…you’re better off going through the average 4 hour Utah CCW class. MMTA comes through Frederick a couple of times a year, and the class is in the conference room at the Hilton and costs...

      Frederick - Heritage Sale

      They have AR-10's for sale and rent, but no AR-15. They were around $1300 last fall when I price checked them. For some reason they don't really put out the welcome mat for the AR-15 crowd.

      How is Gilbers in business?

      FWIW, I joined The Machine Gun Nest for $200 annual back in December. I think you have to ask if they are doing a special that month. It's normally $250 and he couldn't say what the renewal rate would be. Heritage was $25 for lane rental, so I went with TMGN based on 3 trips a month to...

      Heritage has a boat load of rentals for $65. I rented the XDS 9mm and went with that.

      PPITH class required first? Why?

      Hello All, I'm relatively new to both the forums and hand guns, so I started exploring NRA based training opportunities in the greater Frederick area. Just finished the Basic Pistol course in Thurmont with SFS Fire Arms Training. My question is concerning the general training progression for...

      I took their Utah / HQL class in Frederick last spring. It was a class of about 100 and held in the Hilton conference room. Everything progressed smoothly and professionally. Good company.

      Hello from Frederick

      My name is David and I'm pretty new to the gun world. Recently purchased a Glock 19, attended an L5-S1 course in Frederick Maryland last year, and then put the thing in the closet because there weren't any gun ranges in the Frederick area. Just bought an AR-15 and have returned to the...
