    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    Yep. I'm happy we have some new blood in town. I don't think Hogan is going anywhere near 2A issues though, at least not until he fixes the state finances.

    Question for LEOs and retired LEOs:

    Interesting--keep us in the loop. Sounds to me like some kid deserves a revolver!

    Question for LEOs and retired LEOs:

    I tried to look up the case to see details, but couldn't find it. Can you recall the case name?

    Question for LEOs and retired LEOs:

    I'm curious--when illegally owned and/or carried firearms are recovered from criminals, in what condition are they usually found? My question was formulated based on the myriad of threads I've seen about the reliability and familiarity requirements that members of this forum impose on their...

    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    The real question is "How can something be unconstitutional in DC, but constitutional in MD?". :cuss:

    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    hso has a great point. Those of you who have left MD, please take the time to send O'Malley a letter and let him know why you left. Mentioning Beretta is also a great idea. Letters can be digitally sent to the Governor via the following website: http://www.governor.maryland.gov/mail/

    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    You are all going to hate my perspective on this, but oh well--bring on the ridicule: Politics is a game. It is an unfair, unjust, and immoral game. "Form letters" are an acceptable (and potentially powerful) weapon in this game, which is why you see them on these forums all the time. I know...

    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    Yessir. I figure that most MD residents who would love to carry have simply stopped contacting their elected officials due to the state's reputation. I figured that voicing my point of view couldn't hurt, and they may not have seen the argument in a while...

    MD Handgun Transport on a Motorcycle

    Ok, last post on the subject. I see your point, but I don't believe the MSP do... CRIMINAL LAW TITLE 4. WEAPON CRIMES SUBTITLE 2. HANDGUNS Md. CRIMINAL LAW Code Ann. § 4-203 (2014) § 4-203. Wearing, carrying, or transporting handgun (a) Prohibited. -- (1) Except...

    Today's letter to the Governor of MD:

    Governor Martin O'Malley, Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this--as a Maryland constituent, I take great pride in knowing that my opinions and comments will be heard by my local politicians, and I have hope that the change suggested herein can one day be implemented in the...

    How are your local gun stores doing?

    I have 4 local gun shops--3 north of Baltimore, and 1 south of Baltimore. 1 of those north of the city just went under, another north of the city is going under in early August (says the owner). These are the only 2 of the 4 that don't offer other services. The 3rd "north" store is also an...

    "New" Springfield 1911 in poor condition?

    The last two posts nailed it--there is only a small indentation on the side of the aluminum trigger, and no other noticeable flaws on the firearm itself. I'll be in the shop on Saturday morning for my HQL course, and will take a few pictures to upload Saturday evening. Thanks for the input all...

    "New" Springfield 1911 in poor condition?

    ...I think you missed post #24. This is a forum, where people come to get advice from others to better prepare themselves for a pending decision. Even if I do end up taking possession, there is no reason for you or anyone else to get butt hurt--there's no harm done to anyone but me, and if I...

    "New" Springfield 1911 in poor condition?

    I haven't taken possession yet--currently planning on taking possession on August 4th. I'll be at the LGS on July 26th to take my HQL. While there, I'll see if the owner is around, and have her (don't be sexist, fellas) take a look at the box and pistol and see what she thinks. Hopefully, she'll...
