      Greetings and salutations, fellow enthusiasts! New on the forum, and fairly new to gun ownership and guns in general. I grew up in a no-gun environment for most of my life. My family had no interest, though not really against them, they just weren't for them, and thus by they weren't...

      A real puzzler

      OK This isn't directly related to "gunsmithing" but I'm kind of caught in a conundrum. I have a small (very) business where I do professional cleaning, long-term storage prep and safety checks on people's firearms. By professional cleaning I mean I completely disassemble, degrease (thanks...

      Glock Stippling-Maryland?

      Does anyone know of shop that does Glock stippling and other hum drum customization to Glocks? If they are in the capital region that would be ideal but I rather do something local i.e. Maryland than send it out of state.

      Arrrgh! I am trying to find information on what laws and legal hoops (probably a few) that I have to adhere to in order to start a gunsmithing business in Maryland, specifically Prince George's County. Searches on the web are useless. I have applied for my FFL-1 and already have my FFL-03...

      Scott's Gunsmithing Feedback Thread

      I'll be the first to give the thumbs up to Scott's Gunsmithing. I haven't personally bought a gun from them (not yet, at least), but I've been in a few times. Last time was to get scope and rings mounted. I've seen their interactions with customers and they're fair and definitely willing...
