Watched on the beach at OC Maryland thru a pair of burning goggles. Had a clear view, but it didn't get dark there.

I have never found a better sight than a peep mounted on a carbine length lever action. If, your shots are under 150 yards and more like 50, and you hunt in the bush and do more stalking/sitting as opposed to stand hunting, peeps are the only way to go. But, your mileage may vary. As others have sta...

I have carried a Glock 27/26 in the front pocket of my uniform pants since 1996. Presently my "BUG" is either a Glock 26 (21.75 ozs.) or a Glock 43 single-stack in 9mm (17.95 ozs.). The Glock 43 is very accurate and very easy to shoot. With that said, I just bought a Glock 42 single-stack...

Glock 43 9MM 147+P Hardcast and JHP loaded alternatively. You are ready for anything.

Yea, I tell 'ya...that Sixgun cat is the coolest thing since sliced bread. :D (And my buddy Tom, (fordwanna be a Mustang) or something like that who is rapidly gaining and learning the positive capitalistic result of acquiring fine Winchesters and Colts...(and Marlins).... to my level) :D Yea....yo...

Carbines and Trappers. 94's are hunting guns for me. I give up the reach of a scoped bolt action long barreled magnum for the handiness, and lightweight of the flat nose cartridge guns. Perhaps as I grow older, I realize that a peep sighted .356WCF will do anything I need to do. Carrying something l...

tman

Leave it at .348.

I bought a new Colt at a small shop that was closing up about a month ago. Dodged a couple small thunderstorms but had the place to myself. Once I settled down things went well. Too much coffee this morning. :shock: http://i.imgur.com/IF21Sfa.jpg http://i.imgur.com/NH7XVqw.jpg Ammunition was from a...

Older I get the more I appreciate the size and weight of the model 94 Winchester. Mine is also in the extremely UNDERATED .356 WCF, perhaps the best and most useful cartridge ever chambered in a 94

Safe trip & God's speed.

About the whale--it's my understanding that native Alaskans don't shoot whales to kill them; if they did, the whales would sink and be lost. They shoot to wound them, weakening them so they can't stay down as long, then chase them down, get alongside, and put a harpoon in them with a barrel or two ...

Baby Glocks in any caliber. Kel Tec .32 is MORE likely to be on my person, for black bears or humans with hardcast loads it will get the job done,

tman

I'd say the Ruger will hold up better to the 10mm, only because of the engineering and metallurgy I'm sure they will use in the investment casting( if the cast their 1911 frames) Friend of mine was stationed in Alaska while in the Air Force. He told me about a guy was charged by a brown bear while ...

King of the lever guns! Sweet.

I have not, and am also interested in hearing about some first hand accounts. Savage had an advertisement long time ago about somebody killing a whale :shock: with a .303 Savage with a 190 grain bullet, maybe some type of magic there :wink: . Perhaps the bullet is some type of hardcast. Be interesti...

Another shout out for the Buck S30V.

tman

Dude you got cool stuff and excellent taste. Steam trains, Colt .44's etc. You gotta have a muscle car stashed away somewhere.

Interesting, but the .356 is a lot less trouble for questionable gain in performance. You can improve .356 ballistics by handloading, cause the .36 RPP will be a handloaded deal also. Out of 20" barrels, what would the gain be with the .36? If the .356 and .338 Marlin couldn't catch on, doubt i...

No fault Divorces is the reason the Divorce rate {50%+} is so high. Not a good thing if you are the male and make more money than her.

I have a pistol grip stock like that on my 1887 IAC clone. Not much fun to shoot, but it is excellent for it's intended purpose.

tman

With everything that is dumped into the environment along with the preservatives, additives, coloring and growth hormones in the food we CONSUME!, lead from shooting is the very LEAST concern that I have. Contents of Prescription drugs scare me more.

Exactly. Hunters get caught up in this "USE ENOUGH GUN " nonsense and actually believe the Advertising stuff.

tman

Another option is a pre safety, pre lawyer trigger Browning clone on the used market. Got an 86SRC. Excellent quality, great gun.

tman

71 is the king of levers. All true levergun owners should handle, shoot and possibly hunt with it. The model94 .356WCF will duplicate .348WCF. performance in a lighter, handier rifle, but, it's action will never be as SMOOTH!

tman

Guess I'm one of the lucky ones. Bought the 86 SRC when it 1st came out. Many rounds down range and never a problem. Slick strong action, like a bank vault closing.

tman

Kel Tec .32. Don't even know it's in my pocket.

Welcome to the forum. Veral Smith of LBT Molds says his wife uses a 92 in .357 Mag with cast 180 gr bullets as her elk rifle. There's a whole lot going on there. Please retract this post of the insanity of one using a .357 for Elk. Gun writers will show up at her house with pitchforks and lanterns ...

Dig the full mag! Lever actions look better that way. Might have that done to my 71 carbine.

Prayers. Good luck.

I'll chime in too, also using Tycer's list as a guide... * It's not a Winchester or a Marlin. True, but it carries well and generally hits harder. * It's not made in America. Yup, but we could say that about a lot of guns these days... * It has an impossible to remove high gloss finish on the stock...

Mine in 308 is one of my favorites. Carries like a 30-30 but with more power. In the late ninties I have a friend ,who shot a Marlin in 32 special , was going to buy a new bolt action in 30-06. I convinced him to buy a BLR. To this day he comments how great a gun it is. He is a advid deer hunting a...

Gonna take the .50 Renegade flintlock and shoot it all summer to get ready for the OCT. muzzleloader deer season in PA. Been a while since a played with it.

Years ago I bought a RIA 1911 for around $300 +/-, don't remember. It shoots the Winchester Ranger 230JHP accurately with no jams. I can't ask anything more of a .45 commander, especially at that price. So I would not hesitate to buy a Mil/Spec .45 commander again at that price.

Congrads! Longevity is directly tied to heredity. You can help it along or slow it down by a few years by lifestyle choices. On the other hand, you only go around once, you might as well enjoy living your life to the fullest. Don't have any regrets on what you didn't do when it's time for the dirt n...

I know you guys are talking about "real" 9mm, but my short 9, aka .380, is most likely to put the hurt on a bad guy pretty good. At least slow him down. Yes, I intend to shoot more than once. Yes, when I go to the woods I take a G30S, or 1911 and a long gun. That little LCP is just SO han...

9mm handguns are much easier to conceal than a 45. The 45 pacts more power, but with modern tech 9mm loads, is it worth the difference? Would anything shot with it know the difference? Is there really a difference with modern ammo? I can conceal carry a Glock 43 in 90% of the situations where I'd ha...
