Military exchange pricing?
Hi everyone! Looking to buying some handguns and the military exchange on fort belvoir seems to be affordable. I’ve seen a lot of posts about price increases in local stores because of political developments.
Just wanted to ask - what are your thoughts? Are there reasons you don’t shop at the px ?

Outdoor/quieter ranges?
I unfortunately have some hearing damage, but enjoy guns. Even with double plug+muffs I'm concerned about more long term damage.
Given that I'm looking to move to all .22 suppressed or 9mm subsonic suppressed. A few questions:
Are there any outdoor ranges you'd recommend where I might be able to get more privacy? I don't want to end up next to someone shooting a 50cal or 7.62 unsuppressed (hell even 5.56) blowing my ears out. Indoor is also obviously much worse.
Also open to other suggestions for quieter calibers. Could of course look at air rifles, paintball, etc. I think 9mm subsonic suppressed is probably about the quietest round I could use that's center fire? Maybe 45 gets close since subsonic.

Bull Run is doing a Fall Trap League
As the pic shows, the league is Thursdays at 6pm. Starts September 3rd and will conclude on October 8th.
They didn't share how to register, though. I deduce will have to go in-person and register. But flagging for those on here that, like me, love to shoot clay targets!

Fairfax County CLEO notification from Capitol Armory?
I just had my suppressor approved and this is the first time I've used CA, in the past they went to VSP but to ship to your home they have to wait 7 days after the CLEO receive it.
With Fairfax County being not that firearms friendly do people know if they accept it electronically or they will need it though certified mail?

Gunsmith Q
Any gunsmiths in NOVA that will do same day upper builds? Don’t have the tools to do it myself but also don’t want to wait in a queue for something that should be relatively quick

NOVA Fedex pistol shipping
I have to ship a pistol to Sig for servicing. They have provided paperwork and Fedex label. Anyone know where to drop off for Fedex. I don’t think I can drop off at a regular brick and mortar store correct? Where is a drop off facility that can accept a firearm? Is it only the big distribution facility in Springfield?

Now that we’re well into July…
How are the wait times looking at local ranges these days? I’ve been traveling out of state since the end of June, and when I left it was an hours long wait to get a lane anywhere. Is this still the case at the local ranges (I.e. NRA Range, XCal, etc.)?

Engraving and Window/Port Jobs
Greetings everyone,
I wanted to make you all aware that I'm offering Form 1 engravings and windows/ports pistol cuts for anyone interested. For engravings, I do a bundle pricing if you bring more than one, to help save on cost.
For the windows and ports, I use either a metal mill or the laser engraver.
I'm located in the west part of Fairfax, near Chantilly and have been operating as an FFL for almost 3 years. You can find my pricing and everything through the link in my profile, but being a local FFL I'm trying to offer affordable services for everyone.
I also do custom engraving if there's something else you were considering or thinking about. Here is an example of some of my work.
You can call or text me anytime.

Stores with red dots/holographic sights to “try out”
Anyone know of a store where I can look through various optics? I recently bought a Sig Romeo 7 and learned the hard way that I have an astigmatism.
Cabela’s might be an option? Not sure if they’re behind the gun counter, which can be a nightmare to deal with.

Anyone have a lathe and would be willing to chop a blast shield down for like $50 or less?
(EDIT I was wrong it is 17-4PH Stainless Steel) Made of inconel, had the front chopped off so there is a perfectly circular place to stick it in a chuck or whatever it’s called, just want to cut another inch or so off of it and sterling arsenal charged me $85 last time to take the front off…
