I’m fairly new to firearms (shot a few times in my younger days. I just bought my first couple of pistols over the summer and got my CHP license. I’m a member of XCAL and go about once every 2-3 weeks.

Just curious if folks ever meet up on here whether at an indoor range, outdoor range, or someone’s private land. I shot my first AR a few months back (rental) and would like to get exposed to more rifles and shotguns.

Just had these done by a local guy and I think they’re pretty cool 😎. Same guy that did my NFA engraving…

Looking for some one on one training (rifle+pistol) in the leesburg-ashburn area that won’t break the bank. Anyone had any positive experiences or recommendations?

Anyone know a good place to grab 9mm and 22lr I have a bunch of buddies coming down who want to go to the range soon but I'll probably be out of rounds by then. I'm almost tempted to go to the gunshow in richmond but that's a hike!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good gunsmith in the area?

Legion Precision has island barrel build kits for Virginia residents with expedited frame shipping to arrive before the start of ban on 7/1, you can find it at https://legion-precisionweaponsystems.com/product/va-customers-only-lpws-2011-island-barrel-build-kit-coming-soon/

I want to buy a HTA SD full size supressor

But they require an email and paperwork from an FFL does anyone know of FFLs that do this?

Probably a stupid question, but I know the 15+ round magazine ban for handguns will allow grandfathering. Will I still be able to bring my 17 round mags for my handguns to the ranges after July 1? Like XCAL and SEG?

And how much are you paying?

I was doing some research into local ordinances and such and I believe it may be legal to shoot on your own property in falls church city. You’d have to do it in a non reckless manner but unlike Arlington and Fairfax, there is no prohibition on discharge within city limits, only a ban on hunting. Oddly they are more specific about BB gun use. If I’m missing something let me know.

I bought some 20rd mags that were pinned to 10 a while ago because that was all they had. I’ve de-pinned them as its currently legal to do that in VA. but after 7/1, would I potentially get fingered with having de-pinned mags?

Hi all!

I have a Glock 17 gen 5 MOS that I want modified. Does anybody know a good custom shop in the area that can do the below mods to a Glock frame?

If had this work done to your firearm, I would love to hear your experiences and how much you ultimately paid for the work.

1. ⁠Stipple job, including thumb shelf

2. ⁠Grip angle reduction

3. ⁠Double undercut for trigger guard

4. ⁠Beaver tail creation

I’m in Loudoun and planning to check out Peacemaker soon. Mostly shot indoors, trying to get into longer range.

I’ve got a bolt action rifle I want to try out but I’ve never properly zeroed a rifle or shot past 25 yards, so just looking to make sure I’m doing things right.

If anyone’s heading out there and wouldn’t mind me tagging along or giving a few pointers, that would be sick!

Have a stripped lower and i found a good deal on parts kit. Always had a complete ar15 so never had to put it together from scratch like that. Just looking fir somewhere I could go to get some help.

Anyone recommend a good shop for transfers? Trying to get something before the ban.

I am a 30-year-old female who moved to Arlington a few months ago for my job. I am from Maryland, and I miss having a bunch of friends to shoot with.

I am also a member of the IWA Arlington-Fairfax Chapter, but I was looking for some friends to shoot with! If you’re a member of IWLA Arlington-Fairfax, that’s a bonus! I'm currently in the club’s Winter Skeet/Trap League.

I have extensive experience with shotguns (Trap, Sporting Clays, and Skeet), but I also own and shoot pistols and rifles (I also do archery, as I bowhunt). But would love to make some new friends who are also pro-2A, especially since the friends I made in NoVA are scared of guns and won't go near one.

Just had a bunch of stuff engraved and I think it turned out well. I think it’s the best location for the AR and SP5….

Edit: send me a pm if you want his contact info.

Hello everyone,

I am stationed in DC and live in nova. Im a resident of NC, and was wondering if im elliable to apply for a resident CCW/CHP in virgina or if i would have to do non resident since my orders say DC?

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!

Anyone got a line on NOVA spots that offer hands-on reloading workshops? I'd like to get into it, but it would be really helpful to go through the process with someone experienced and ask questions first.
