      Transfer the gun but not the mags?

      Heading up to PA in a couple of weeks. If I bought a hand gun with a 12 round mag, could the dealer just sell me the handgun and send to FFL here for transfer and then let me buy the magazines from him there while in PA and just bring them back to MD?

      Frosh on WMAL this morning

      Did anyone hear Brian Frosh on the Brian and Brian show this morning? Does anyone know how to get a clip of the audio? Frosh seemed to say, in response to questioning, that if 10 rounds weren't enough to defend yourself, then you must need some practice and training. I think the radio...
