      Front sight focus ... is wrong? This expert says so.

      Like probably everyone else here, I've always been taught that front sight focus is the way to go. And that's what I've done for decades. This competitive shooter disagrees, and states his rationale. I'm curious what everyone else things about his logic:

      How do I remove blue Loctite from threads?

      I have a bolt that helps to hold my trigger control group in on a lever action rifle. I took it out and noticed that the manufacturer put in blue Loctite on the threads. Now I can't get it back together. I think it is the old blue Loctite that is causing the problem. I tried soaking the bolt...

      Carry weapons for women?

      So my wife has finally decided to get her first (and most likely ever) handgun. I’ve told her that she can have anything she wants as long as it’s 9mm. For myself, I know what feels good in my hands, and know how to select a handgun. FYI I like the full sized Berettas and SIGs for home defense...

      Moving and Maryland buy/sell questions

      As of 31 May I’m now officially retired. We already have a home in Kentucky, but for the next 2-3 months I’ll still be hanging around Maryland part time getting some stuff moved out, doing some deferred maintenance on the house, then finally getting the house on the market and later sold. At...

      School me on towing sway bars for a truck/camper please

      So my wife and I are thinking about purchasing our first camper, specifically a travel trailer. We'd tow it with our 2018 Honda AWD Ridgeline that has a 5,000 lbs. towing capacity. We're looking at campers that come in at about 4,300 lbs, probably a bit more if I have some water in the holding...

      Own a real piece of Apollo 11 - and help out MSI

      I'm making an offer to MDS members who support Maryland Shall Issue to let you own a real piece of Apollo 11. No I'm not kidding. I have several of these and will be offering extras for sale on ebay, but I'm keeping one back to help out MSI. Details of the commemorative medallion coin are...

      Questions on crabbing regulations

      Weather cooperating, my wife and I are going to take our pontoon boat out at least part of tomorrow, do a little light fishing in-place, and toss some collapsible crab traps over the side. This is the first time we've tried crabbing, and I have a question about regulations. I got a boat...

      Fishing license question

      My wife and I bought our first boat last year, which we used just for boating. While I was in Bass Pro this afternoon, for the upcoming 2019 season I went ahead and purchased a 365 Bay & Coastal Fishing Boat license. However the guy at Bass Pro wasn't sure whether that just covered my guests...

      Bobble head deer hunter?

      I have a question for those of you with many more years of experience deer hunting than I have. I wonder about this each time I'm up in a tree, but always forget to post-up after the hunt. So here it is: How do you balance remaining motionless with the need to scan all areas around you...

      Modern cowboy

      My interest in lever action rifles has been growing recently. They are a purely American invention. So I just picked this beauty up from 2A Sales in Jessup (one of our MDS IPs). It's a Henry Long Ranger sized in 223/556 so it can eat some of my plentiful AR ammo. I know that's not an...

      Newbie boating question

      So my wife & I are getting our first boat. (Well sorta - a decade or so back we bought a small inflatable (dingy) but it was under-powered for what we wanted to do and we never got to use it as we planned.) We pick up the (brand new) boat Friday afternoon. So here's my question. I'm of...

      Deer callers - do they work?

      What say you, the experienced hunters on here? Given my very limited experience (3 deer taken in 6 hunts in my first full year) I can't make any certain conclusions but at least when I hunted I couldn't tell any difference that the callers made. Deer showed up or they didn't. So what has...

      Will Obama go thermonuclear on the SCOTUS today?

      In the left wing portion of the internet (you know, the part Al Gore invented) they are all in a tizzy that today is the day Obama could trump Trump and finally appoint Merrick Garland to the SCOTUS, replacing Scalia the author of Heller and McDonald, and giving the SCOTUS an anti-2A majority...

      All of the final votes are not in yet, but if appears that Hillary Clinton will likely win the popular vote, with President Elect Trump taking the Electoral College. Once again, the wisdom of the Founding Fathers has been demonstrated. Many people don’t understand the purpose of the Electoral...

      Questions and Amendments on the 2016 ballot

      Other than Question 1, which has its own thread, has anyone researched the other Questions and Amendments on the 2016 ballot? FYI I'm in Anne Arundel County, which I also care about of course, but other items are state-wide. Comments? Edit: And oh, judges - what about retention of each of the...
