      after market stock for a scoped SKS

      Pistol grip makes it "assaulty" and non-sporting, thus subject to 922r compliance. If it's sporting, then all parts can be foreign but if it's non-sporting (pistol grip being one definition), then only so many parts can be foreign. This is why all of the imported AK and UZI clones had...

      Loaded long gun in car

      Do you by chance know what the penalties are for violation of this article? Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place but haven't seen the penalties listed for 10-410 (c) (1). I've been under the impression from what I remember reading years ago - and my memory is a little fuzzy here - that it was...

      SB387 "Public Safety - Untraceable Firearms" - The Ban on Private Firearm Making

      Has it actually been established that they cannot imprint a serial number on a firearm? Not manufacture but serialize as a completely distinct function. A non-07 cannot manufacture a firearm, and an 07 can't manufacture a firearm that you already manufactured so clearly nobody can manufacture a...

      Frederick, MD; Jan 22-23, 2022

      I’m at the show right now and, quite frankly, it’s a total waste of time. Not a huge turnout for guns although better than some in years past, or at least fewer tasers and jerky tables. The kicker is that everything has the 25% gun show markup so you can buy anything here at any local gun shop...

      MD GUN LAW Q

      I remember researching this in-depth years ago but my memory is pretty fuzzy. If I recall, MD law, as with Federal law, does not consider a muzzleloader or other antiques an actual firearm, so firearms laws do not apply. However, since it is a weapon, it falls under the same dangerous weapon...

      Consumer metal sales in Frederick?

      No trip needed for me, that's the best part: they're shipping it to their Frederick store from their Capitol Heights store at no charge to me. I did find other suppliers in Beltsville, Metal Supermarkets being one of them, along with other suppliers east of Baltimore. Since most aren't...

      Consumer metal sales in Frederick?

      Thanks everyone. I checked Posner's again and it turns out they did in fact have the correct wall thickness I needed, just wasn't in stock in Frederick. I placed an order and they'll have it on Monday from their Capitol Heights location, which is pretty good all things considered. Saved $200+...

      Consumer metal sales in Frederick?

      Does anyone know of any businesses in Frederick that will sell metal stock to consumers? I need two 9-foot sections of 1" 304 stainless square tube with .12" wall thickness. The usual online shops I've used in the past are insanely expensive for shipping - it costs more than the steel does...

      Best budget semi-auto

      This is from memory so take it with a grain of salt: Beretta (Benelli's parent) was planning to sue Stoeger but, in a stroke of brilliance, saw an excellent business opportunity with an undervalued company that they could buy on the cheap. They realized they'd make a killing selling quality...

      Tracker Boat price increases for 2021

      They're still all over Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist. I know a lot of people don't want to use Facebook but it's worth setting up an account with minimal personal info/no networking just for access to the classifieds. That is the number one place I've found for used boats, motors, and...

      New HK single stack 9mm

      I don't see anything stating it's single stack, just a design patent on the look itself. Look closely at the front/rear profile drawing of the grip design and it really looks like it's a coffin magazine, so double stack at the bottom condensing to single feed about halfway to keep the slide...

      Fingerprints

      I just did my own for a Form 1 recently using a kit from Amazon and was approved no problem at all. Actually it's even easier than driving somewhere and you'll pay about what you'll spend in gas. My only advice is to try to get an actual ink or inkless pad, whether it comes with the kit or you...

      Is it worth the effort? SMLE MK 111 rebirth

      IMHO I'd make a DeLisle out of it. Always wanted a trashed but functional/repairable SMLE action to build a Delisle on. Form 1 turnaround is under 1 month, and Rhineland Arms has the .45 acp conversion kits: https://www.troupsystems.com/product/enfield-45-acp-kit/ Could never bring myself to...

      Little Turkey S/A Shotgun Modification Project

      The Benelli M4 Super 90 (I forget the whole series)/M1014 is gas operated. My USMC-issued M1014 was gas operated, my personal Montefeltro is recoil operated. Basically, in the modern Benelli lineup, combat shotguns are gas and sporting shotguns are recoil.

      22 short - what do you guys shoot it with?

      My family shoots a ton of .22 short in bolt rifles and a revolver. Savage Rascal CZ-455 Ruger Wrangler It's great for close range, low noise, low penetration target shooting.

      Phoenix Arms HP22 ??

      I was just shooting mine tonight actually, only one mag though. I've been frustrated trying to get my GSG-1911 to cycle subsonic ammo which is the opposite from the HP-22 in that only HV ammo is recommended. I can almost get the GSG to cycle the slower stuff but not quite there yet (M22 doing...

      Phoenix Arms HP22 ??

      That explains it. They're only rated for standard velocity ammo, not high velocity. There are some documented incidents of that happening around the net from people using HV ammo. Over time, the slide pounds the frame until a crack forms when shooting HV. MCarbo makes a replacement recoil...

      Day 8 and no "NOT DISAPPROVED" from MSP

      I've done two purchases this month one week after the other on Sundays. Purchase on a Sunday, electronic 77R submitted, following Sunday at 0630 I got an email with the "Not Disapproved" and picked up as soon as the shop opened. So far I'm two for two with being ~6 hours short of 7 days...
