      Incompetent MSP in transfer

      The gun I traded him for was unregulated, so he just handed it to me in the parking lot. Police don't need to know about it, as it's none of their business. Name calling, bah. I expect competence from civil servants and when I don't get it, I'm pissed. If someone at work comes to me with a...

      Incompetent MSP in transfer

      So I bought a P229 off a friend a while back, used it for a while, then decided to trade it back to him for another gun in his collection. We get to the Westminster barracks, fill out the paperwork, no problems, I give it to him after the waiting period. I'm looking at the forms and which to...

      MD Wear & Carry = CCW?

      This seems like an amateur question, I know, but just to get it straight: Someone told me that MD doesn't actually have a "concealed carry permit", they have the "wear and carry permit". I thought it was just slang for the CCW - Is the Wear&Carry the same thing as a concealed carry permit, or...

      Security Clearances may now just be G&S

      I had a friend whose G&S involved him saying that 'I have a clearance, Snowden and Manning leaked info, my name could be in the open and bad guys could find me.' Disapproved.

      Heavy 40 cals, which to pick?

      I enjoy my Sig P229 .40. I bought it off an air marshal who swore by it. As you mentioned in your requirements, it is a metal frame, and it feels much better to hold than Glocks. I like the weight.

      Ranging w/Sights

      I go to Freestate and Hap Baker quite often. Freestate is only 25 yd while Baker is 250 yd. I took the AR to Freestate after using it out to 100 at Baker a while back. Surprise, didn't do so well. So two questions - 1. at what distance do you keep your AR's zeroed? I was doing well with...

      Cleaning Guns in Back Yard?

      Probably an obvious question, but I was just wondering. I live in Baltimore, got a rowhouse with a decent sized back yard. I have a neighbor on each side that, if they were in their yard, could look over and see me in my backyard. Could I legally do some gun maintenance and/or cleaning in...

      Borrowing Handguns

      Morning, Question for handguns, maybe guns in general. Can I borrow my friend's guns and take them to the range without needing any special kind of permission or paperwork? Same thing for non-HBAR AR15s. If something falls into the 'regulated' category, what are the laws with borrowing it...

      CCW shooting

      I was glad to see that the 'possible PTSD' issue got some comments. I do agree with all of you though - I think it's a Marine saying that it's 'better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.'

      ATF M855 5.56 Ban - How to Comment

      It is definitely used by the military, can verify. I meant, compared to other types of .223/5.56 rounds available, is it really breaking people's hearts that it may be unavailable? This is beside the question of whether the BATFE should restrict its sale or not.

      Knife Question

      I saw an Emerson WAVE knife the other day - the feature is a small nub that auto-draws the knife when you take it out of your pocket. http://emersonknives.com/product-tag/wave-feature/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swRO_0WQNNQ These are not illegal in MD, correct? There is no button...

      WaPo gun rights and Hogan

      1. Whatever happened to that issue with the cops in uniform, stating how Hogan will make their job more dangerous? 2.Does Brown still owe for that huge loan he took out a week before the election? 3. What does everyone make of Hogan continually stating that he's not going to change the laws...

      Hap Baker announcment

      Well, best of luck. I was thinking of going soon but I'll wait along with everybody else. Went here a month ago and I had a great time. Not a lot of long distance ranges near Baltimore. Staff is very professional.

      What guns would you take on an expedition to Alaska?

      .45 sounds pretty good. I have heard stories of people hunting bears with gigantic pistols before, like .44 Magnums and the like. Never tried 10MM before, but it sounds like the right tool for Alaska, as others said. Bear-hunting, yeesh. Probably some kind of .308 for the rest.

      Greetings from Sykesville

      My typical greeting to the new guys: thanks for being here, don't try to get your CCW unless you're being stalked by a gang. UNLESS, the bills going through get approved or we get a good new MSP superintendent

      Need ideas of for a fixed blade for a Marine getting out gift

      KBAR has the historical thing going for it, can't go wrong there. Personally I have become fond of Karambits lately - the knives with the hooked blade. I am eyeing one from Emerson. http://emersonknives.com/product-category/knives/karambit-the-knives/ You can get them in folders or fixed.
