      multiple gun safes vs mega safe?

      I've got two big ones...and need a third. Probably best to have a dedicated rifle safe, and a dedicated pistol safe. YMMV, depending on the composition of your collection.

      Calvert Gun range 2020 ver.

      To be honest, I saw a sign on Route 4 in Lusby, just north of the landfill, for the new facility.

      Supreme Court remits MD assault weapons ban back to lower courts in light of Bruen vs. NY ruling

      This is why I advocate for a Federal Firearms Rights Act, similar to the Voting Rights Act. We'll be decades playing the judicial runaround.

      Maryland Arms Collector’s Show: Timonium, March 16th-17th, 2024

      Spent Saturday morning walking around. Sold a couple of original Remington M1863 revolvers (surplus to my depth chart on those, I own four today). Bought a couple of books. The problem is, I'm at a point where my want list is more high-end auction house stuff. As in a case of flintlock...

      The attendance requirement takes me out.

      What tips would you give a first time shooter?

      3. Formal training is good, but regular practice is essential. 4. Dry fire has important shooting vitamins. Plus it's cheap and requires no facilities.

      What tips would you give a first time shooter?

      Honestly? 1. Start with .22 LR. It's relatively quiet, inexpensive, and the recoil is not objectionable. If you can get access to a good air rifle or air pistol, they are even better. 2. Take your time. Shoot ONE shot well. Then move to multiple shots. In the words of LCOL Melvin...

      C&R values; anticipating sale

      The SSG-82 is particularly tricky. There are three on GB right now, for $4K or more.

      C&R values; anticipating sale

      As others have mentioned, I'd look at GunBroker completed auctions. In particular, look at the auctions with multiple bids...there are some dealers who will advertise the same thing over and over at a hyperinflated price.

      2A does not apply to Hawaii

      Pity we don't have a President who upholds the Constitution. If we did, there would not be a conference call. It would be a house call...by the military, to suppress the rebellion by force of arms.

      Safe places to live in Laurel/Fulton/Columbia area?

      I’ve put in for a position at JHU Applied Physics Lab. Home is in Deep Southern Maryland, so if I got a job, I’d have to find a place to live. Any places to avoid? My needs would be simple…more of a room to stay for the work week than a permanent home. But I want something safe.

      CMP Shipping to Home

      You need a bigger gun safe because you stuff all the other valuables in it, too. Car title, etc. Wills. Other documents. Fine jewelry.

      Suppressor theory and construction

      There's probably a good doctoral thesis on the application of modern computational fluid dynamics to suppressor design. But it would be a beast to develop the math modeling and code for. Highly irregular surfaces, non-steady-state flow...about the toughest problem in CFD that can be imagined.

      Maryland Arms Collector’s Show: Timonium, March 16th-17th, 2024

      This is the one gun show in the region that I consider a "must make". Precisely because it's not the usual AR/AK/1911/Glock/jerky fest that every other gun show it. This one draws attendees from outside the United States - I've run into Canadians and Brits at it. Bring money. Bring lots of...

      Suppressor / Tax Stamp - What to Keep on you?

      ATF will tell you to make and carry copies - and to keep the original in a safe location.

      Private charter jet airport STM County?

      Not to my knowledge. The big headache is staying out of that SFRA...or making the arrangements to transit through it.

      Yes. All of the above. There's an excellent fudge seller at this show.
