Welcome Back
Nice looking gun. I'm probably a wimp, but my experience, with an S&W620, has been that the original equipment Hogue rubber grips make shooting a box of .357 relatively painless. Your wood grips look like they would not be as comfortable.
Since I'm new-ish to MD (and left my carry permit in VA), I'm not an expert like most of you; however, the pricey Dutch's at Silvertree seems to have the best tasting crab cakes. Unlike UNO, which is a national chain, Dutch's other place is in Frederick, so I'm thinking they're true MD crab cakes.
We have really good public schools in Garrett County that are mostly financed by those rich tax and spend liberals down east, as well as superb winter road maintenance. If we join WVa, we lose all that.
There are ruins at Kendall, west of Friendsville in Garrett County and it's a great walk on a nice day.

Thanks all...I've got what I need. Interestingly the registry link provided by DadOSix produced 12 listings for Oakland, including Bill's Outdoor and Walmart...as well as others mentioned by responders.
Appreciate the prompt and useful responses.
The Forum search engine did not produce the info, so I hope this isn't asking a question that's already been beaten to death:
Anyone know of a reliable FFL in Garrett County? If so could you provide contact info?
Thanks
A favorite bumper sticker comes to mind:
Is a woman raped and strangled morally superior to a woman with a smoking gun and a dead rapist at her feet?
We know the answer at Dartmouth.
They ought to look east across the lake. I apologize for not saving the article, but within the last year, The Detroit Free Press looked at the result of Michigan's transition to "shall issue." The fight over it had been predictable, the "pro" faction arguing armed citizens would reduce crime...
Sorry you had the scare but glad you're quitting. I did so years ago after 13 years of smoking heavily. Aside from the cost savings, the freedom from worry about my next butt and having endurance, the main thing that has kept me from starting again is this: the first week wo/cigarettes is the...
Oupa: You're preaching to the choir on this site. The problem is that we folks in W.Md. are listened to by our reps in Annapolis, but they don't have the clout to stop the big government avalanche. It's even worse at the federal level, now that we've become part of the Montgomery County...
The Irony
The gerrymander that eliminated support for Bartlett and made us vote with Montgomery County has put us in the position of being taxed without representation. Ironic that it's DC that whines on its license plates about that. While the folks in DC don't have a voting congressman...
Interesting article listing the best and worst governed states.

It shows that Maryland is doing well as a state due almost entirely to the wealth of its citizens, by almost all other...
OK: I expect every MD Shooter to thank me. Rather than continuing to chase the stuff in the stores, I made a sizable buy of .22LR on the internet: the ammo price was not bad by current standards, but shipping cost an arm, a leg and part of my reproductive system. Given my success with other...
I don't feel the need to carry in Garrett County. The sorts of places in this blighted state where I would feel that need are governed by the worst sort of politicians, so a "local option" would get me nowhere. We're better off with a statewide rule set so that if the law makers ever wise up...
The Wisp recreational business has been profitable, but the whole Lodestone/real estate business became a sucking chest wound when the real estate boom went bust. To keep afloat, Wisp profits were diverted to pay the loans on the real estate, and they both went into bankruptcy. As the article...
Value of Tourism
Tourons create congestion on the roads and in public areas and they bring the abrasive Type-A "I'm the smartest and most important person around" attitude that does not fit our area. There are plenty of exceptions, but, of course it's the bad apples that color local...
DCL Survival Rule 1: never go out on the lake on the weekend during the Touron season. Problem is that houseguests show up on the weekend and want to engage in lake activities, so I'm consistently hosed.
Can't tell your left from your right? Assume no traffic dividers means no traffic...
While the folks who make a living from the blacks-as-victims business and the Hollywood crowd are encouraging the murder of Zimmerman, I have not heard any voices from the Hispanic community (if there is anything like a "community" for such a diverse group) defending Zimmerman or offering...
