      Sig P220 Failure

      Mikec hit the nail on the head. I never PM'ed the weapon, so it failed.

      Gun Bunker Buy

      Actually, I an answered my own question. I stopped in the GB last weekend and asked about the MD location. I was told that they are swamped with business, so they don't have time to pursue it right now. I'm not sure which manager I spoke with, but he thinks they may pursue it early next year.

      Sig P220 Failure

      Glocks have that 2am, closing time, and I've had five too many Stoli shots, kind of beauty. Sure, in a pinch she'll get the job done, but you don't want your friends to find out about it. Sigs are the ones you want to take home to Mom and once you do you find that she knows how to cook...

      Sig P220 Failure

      Well, what I am going to fire with the non-1911 hand?

      Sig P220 Failure

      All, Thanks for the tips. I went to Top Gun since they also had a parts kit that I'd wanted. I'm definitely going to remember gunspring.com, too, because I have a couple of P226s that I'm going to replace the springs on, too. As for using the "wrong" part to get by, as the previous poster...

      Sig P220 Failure

      I've had a Sig P220 45ACP for about 9 months and have likely fired 3000-5000 rounds through it. Yesterday, with no warning, the recoil spring broke preventing the gun from cycling. I was able to substitute the spring from a P226 40S&W to finish the box, but this isn't a real fix. Anybody know of...

      Open Carry vs Concealed Carry

      There is a lot to be said for the element of uncertainty associated with concealed carry. For example, if open carry was a requirement in dating, I'd be a very lonely man.

      Get your ya-yas out.....

      Yes, rifle ammo is on the list. I'm actually tabulating this information for another reason, so I have to stick to the priorities of that project. However, as I generate data that seems useful, I'll post it. (The ability to embed HTML/CSS in a post sure would be neat. )

      Get your ya-yas out.....

      Amongst the local ranges, Freestate has relatively good case prices. The thing that jumped out at me is that Walmart is selling boxes of ammo at case prices. If I was buying less than a case of handgun FMJ, I wouldn't go anywhere else regardless of how I felt about their politics/trade policies.

      Wholesale FMJ Ammunition Pricing April 2012 Like they say on Schoolhouse Rock: Knowledge is power. Thus, below you'll find a jpeg of a list of wholesale ammunition prices for brands that are popular in Central MD ranges. Wholesale prices are only available to FFLs, but it gives you an idea what...

      New guy questions.

      Sorry. Continental Arms is located in Cockeysville, MD--just north of the MD Fairgrounds. Below is a link to their site and you can find relevant reviews on this board via the search function. http://continentalarms.com/

      New guy questions.

      Continental allows 00 buckshot, although, I believe it's at the discretion of the RSO.

      ISSC M22

      I bought a generation 1 ISSC M22 and had problems from the start. The milled slot for the extractor cracked withing 25 rounds (see pic), so I had to send it to ISSC for warranty work. It took 6 months to get it back, but it still had feed issues with all types of ammo. I recently put a mirror...

      Complaining again.

      Re: I've got a P226 and P220 and I can't tell the difference. If I'm a cop in your house for some reason (wrong address on the search warrant, for instance) and I see you even motion towards that thing, you're getting shot.

      Complaining again.

      Ok, I stand corrected. We should make toy guns look as close to the genuine article as possible, because measures like fluorescent orange tips are pointless for identification purposes. Besides, anybody who has one of these toys in the presence of a police officer deserves to be shot. Gotcha.

      Complaining again.

      Obliging suicide-by-cop crazies isn't fair to police officers. Especially when it's a toy-like gun.
    18. Not_Disapproved

      Complaining again.

      I got shot in the foot with a pellet once, and it did, indeed, penetrate the shoe and skin. That's why we stuck to BBs, although in retrospect that was fairly dumb, too.
    19. Not_Disapproved

      Complaining again.

      I realize they aren't toys, but they're not really lethal weapons, either. Well, at least no more than a baseball bat or carving knife is. I can remember, as a kid, having "wars" with BB guns, where we'd wear goggles plus several layers of clothing and we'd shoot each other, with out any...

      Finally. A Negative Post About Freestate Gun Range

      Re:Re: Well, I'll have to take your word for it. When I tried to bring a "girl" there, we couldn't get past the "No concealed weapon sign." I still maintain that hiding the candy is a form of CCW and should be regulated accordingly.
