      Sight Picture for iron sights and hand guns

      For me of the three sight pictures in alucards diagram, only #2 works. #1 will change your POI depending on the diameter of the dot or the distance you are shooting from. I guess, if plus or minus 2-3 inches is good for you, it's ok. #3 is no good because the front sight covers the target...

      Feb 4th rally?

      I see several references to a 2A rally in Annapolis on 2/4 but can't find any details. Saw the thread about the bus from Howard Co in events but nothing about the rally itself in 'Events' or 'Md 2A Issues'. I plan to be there but where and when?

      I am a Red Dot Believer

      I have had an Eotech 512 for several years and really like it. We had a cheap 1-4 scope on my wife's AR and recently upgraded to a Leupold MkAR 1-4. There is no question in my mind that the fine crosshairs are more accurate at distance. What I don't like is the need to have your eye perfectly...

      Smart Rifle never misses, now comes in semi-automatic form

      I have seen this and watched a couple of videos. I like the technology but haven't figured out one part of it. How accurate do you have to be when 'tagging' the target? If you have to be as accurate w/ your 'tag' as you want your shot to be, then why not just take the shot? Or does it have some...

      Ranges in maryland

      If you go to the rifle range at MSAR be aware it's loud. It's a nice new facility but there was no attempt at any kind of sound deadening. When shooting our 5.56 we put foam in the ears and muffs over that. It's a 50 yrs (IIRC) range that is maybe 30 feet wide so you get to hear the initial shot...

      .308 Flight Path

      I was surprised when I looked this up a few months ago that the average 308 trajectory is very near a 5.56 trajectory at least out to about 300 yds. I was expecting it to be flatter due to the extra power but I guess the extra bullet weight offsets that.

      Pinning a FSB on a Virgin barrel

      That is ridiculous. Pull your stuff . They must have lot's of work because they sure don't care about you as a customer.

      Movin' on up! LR .308

      I have a different model DPMS but I think w/ the same handguard. It looks to me like the barrel nut is machined as part of the tube. Can anyone confirm?

      FNAR, DPMS OR RUGER SR762

      We have two RRA AR15s and are very happy w/ them. But I went DPMS 'LR308T' for a .308. The main reason was DPMS uses much more common magazines. I am happy w/ it with two exceptions. First is it was shipped dry as a bone. I thought I had lubed it completely before the first range trip but then...

      Great day sighting in at MSAR

      I am glad they have rifle lanes now in the new building. But I sure wish they had done something about sound. We usually put foam in our ears and then the muffs over that. The pistol range is fine.

      Where to mount your scope on an AR?

      I have no personal knowledge of this sport at all but one thing I have noticed is that most 3gun shooters have their left arm fully extended out on a long free float tube. this could translate into how long you want your adjustable stock to be. And that will help determine where to mount your scope.

      Who has received their HQL?

      I don't remember the exact dates but it was quick. Ok'd per their website in 3 days and had my card in another week or so.

      Rock River Arms Refuses to sell to MD residents

      I agree w/ Juan. As we all know the law is poorly written and very hard to interpret. I think RRA is waiting for better understanding and doing what it can. From their point of view, let's say they did something and MD came after them. I don't think spending $25000 in legal fees would be hard to...

      Frederick News Post Letter to Editor today

      As much as we need to do something about mental health and guns, we need to be very careful what we wish for. A couple of questions: What defines an unhealthy mental state? Unfortunately it can't be defined by a number from a blood test being too high. Once the definitions are in place who...

      Reasons To Apply For Designated Collector

      Yesterday I was digging out the paperwork on all my guns and came across the 'Collector" letter. I made copies of all paper work and the letter and they are now in plastic page protectors, one per gun. Those are in a 3 ring binder which will stay in my truck. All the originals are going into the...

      Buying a handgun after October 1

      Guys, thanks for the links to the license and finger prints. My wife and I will both get on this in Oct. Right this minute I have pretty much what I want but have come across and bought pistols on the spur of the moment before. I expect that may happen again and I want to be legal when it does.

      My 8 year old's 1st range trip.

      Rouchna, great job w/ your daughter but I have one thought for you re; the 15-22. Get her the 15-22, even a pink one if she wants, and then ask if you can borrow it once in a while. It being HER gun is all the difference in the world.

      Took wife shooting first time

      Tom Gresham recommends Pinecone's technique. The only thing I don't like about it is where the gun is pointing. If you do that turn 90 degrees so the gun is pointing down range. Also, make sure she stays w/ full sized pistols as the shorter the slide the stronger the spring needs to be, so...
