      Fixing the LCP MAX

      I love my LCP Max but it shot terribly low from the factory. I’m talking like 7-9” low at 7 yards. This was unacceptable to me, even for a pocket pistol. I did some reading online and learned that a TRUGLO Tritium front sight from a S&W Bodyguard will swap in, and sits lower so in theory will...

      G5 GPT is GPP?

      ChatGPT? No no Boomer, not the app you use to generate fuddlore to impress the Gen Z’ers down at BassPro. I’m talking about the greatest invention from the brood of our lord and savior Gaston since tupperware pistol cases. The Glock Performance Trigger. Is this Glock Peak Performance? I plan...

      Let me borrow your HK SP5?

      I've never paid too much attention to them, but recently I've been wanting to find the "right" PCC. I've tried the Keltec Sub2k, hated it. No cheek weld, cheap feeling, just meh. Next tried the S&W FPC, it was better than the Keltec, but not by a lot. Still kind of meh. I have a Ruger PCC, and...

      Black Bear 2023

      I read the thread from last year. I just received the email, I was selected (only my second year hunting in MD). I’m going all out, as this is my last year in Maryland until I PCS next summer. I plan to take the week off work, do some pre season scouting, etc Numbers from last year favor...

      Is she legal at 16?

      Four inches isn’t a lot for some, but for her it was just too much. I couldn’t just keep looking at her and not do anything, so tonight I finally took a chance and put my hands on her. A fellow member on here named “easy” consented to helping, I took what he gave me and lubed it real well. I...

      SWC while traveling ?

      I travel out of state often for work. One thing I’ve noticed is that when I walk into gun stores, outdoor stores, or even WalMart there is piles of straight wall cartridge rounds sitting on the shelf. Obviously in states without center fire restrictions I’m not sure why anyone would use...

      AA County Open Carry Project

      I’ll preface this by saying I understand everyone has their own opinions on open carry, and that’s OK. I’ve had a license to conceal carry for 15+ years outside of Maryland. I moved to Maryland a year ago and immediately got my permit here (I had a G&S reason/exemption). Other places I’ve lived...

      Carrying on Rail (Metro / Amtrak)

      I find it extremely inconvenient that carrying on railways is prohibited. Specifically, even with a DC carry permit, carrying on the metro is prohibited. And in the same vein, this past weekend I had to take the Amtrak from Baltimore to Philly. Have my MD handgun permit but was not allowed to...

      Best way to ship a handgun now?

      Need to ship a Ruger Mark IV barrel for gunsmithing. On the Rugers the barrel is serialized, so considered a handgun. Said gunsmith is an 07/02 FFL. What's the best way for me to do this? USPS is a no-go on handguns (from private individuals) UPS? their website still says yes but i've glazed...

      Christensen Arms Ranger 22, first rounds review

      Christensen Arms has a rebate right now for their Ranger 22. I happened to be traveling and was able to walk into a local Scheels Sporting Goods and they had a tan one on the wall. It was $787 but the the rebate is $250 (after purchase) essentially bringing the price to $537. This is only...

      New C&R holder, what should I buy first?

      As the title states, my 03:FFL is inbound to my house (according to USPS informed delivery). Looking for some recommendations for my first C&R purchase. I'm not a huge collector, really just an enthusiasts at this point. I lean more towards preferring pistols. I dream of a Swiss SIG P210 but...

      Modified Remington 1100 for Turkey

      Inherited this Remington 1100 Magnum from my Father-in-law. It had a long barrel (28-30”iirc) with a fixed choke. I had the barrel shortened to 24” and removable chokes installed. Put a fiber front site on it. Installed an extended bolt handle and some sling swivels. Patterned it yesterday with...

      Successful Appeal to get a UPIN after 4 months

      For whatever reason the past 7-8 years, 98% of the time I get delayed when the NICS is ran. With those delays, 98% of the time they make me wait the full 3 days, pick up only on the 4th. I've always just planned it, NICS on Monday, wait Tuesday-Thursday, pickup Friday. It had become a huge pain...

      Fire-Sights install Ruger 22/45 LITE

      Finally got around to installing these William Fire-Sights on my Ruger Mark IV 22/45 LITE. I had to use my heat gun to remove screw from front sight as it had thread locker on it. But with some heat it came right out. A while ago I had removed the rear sight base from the dovetail and tried a...

      Tru-Glo sight install Glock 45

      Finally got around to putting these Tru-Glo night sights on my Glock 45… man these suckers are bright! First off, install went down without a hitch. Used a front sight tool and a sight pusher with a dab of RemOil. Super easy out and in. The posted picture is from my safe, left sights are...

      Carrying a Beretta Cheetah

      Some .380 action for the evening. My LOK Grips came in for my Beretta 85BB so I promptly installed them tonight. I probably should have ordered some new grip screws as the factory ones have seen better days, but oh well, this is a shooter not a case gun. The grips feel awesome. Also ordered some...
