Tennessee, every time a "bear" thread starts, they go on for weeks. Seems to be a favorite topic of discussion on any number of forums. Luckily here, there are quite a few folks who have actually taken bear while hunting, and more than a couple that have taken them in charges. If you ever ...

P.S. May I suggest one of the Guide Guns. Very handy, and if fed properly, bites at both ends. Kinda leaning toward the Guide Gun; maybe one with a bunch of holes at the end of the barrel. Maybe even a stainless steel one; if they make such a thing. BUT, I keep reading this article about this Ed St...

o fer cryin' out loud yes, and yes; but you knew that Yes, the 45/70 Government is better? Why is that? Isn't one elk and a refridgerator full of muk tuck enough penetration? and Yes, the 1886 is more reliable and shootable? Is that really so? And, I kinda do, but what's wrong with talking about le...

Looking for a .308. Quit fooling around, get one of the Springfield MIAI's. Whether you go for the full size, or one of the abbreviated versions (I have the Scout Squad), you will have a rifle that, unless you are very, very good, will out shoot you. The Scout Squad is what we should have had instea...

All snakes are beneficial. It's just that in some cases they would benefet from being elsewhere.

I learned only one usable lesson from the statistics class. You can make the numbers say anything you want. It all depends on how you select your data. Well two actually, if they won't quite say what you want, just lie. It's doubtful anyone will check the facts. Most folks are either too lazy or jus...

Blaine, sorry to here that. Hope you heal fast. But I'd almost trade. My season ended before it began this year. Picked up a job that is pretty involved. Spending too many hours working on it to go this year. The upside is that I may be able to plan something special next year. Again, heal fast, you...

Unfortuanately, the show shows him as a buffoon. It demeans all things conservative especially gun rights. Remember, this is hollywood. The land of "guns for me, because I'm special, not for you". You missed the point Jeep. Denny was charged with carrying an unregistered handgun. He chose...

Ahh, but my practiced eye sees a ring on that third finger of the left hand. So watch it guys, she's married, armed and seems to know how to use it. I do wonder what the folks in Sacramento would say about that black, er pink rifle. Why, it may be cammoed in a way to allow it to sneak (all by itself...

Sadly, the Denny Crane character is shown and a gun crazy buffoon. It says nothing good about gun rights or conservative Christian views.

My first shotgun was a Mossy .410. Still have it. Works well for southpaws. Took many a small critter with it. Today, it is my "Jeep" gun. Used to carry an AR-7, but wanted something with a little more punch. .410 slugs are pretty effective on coyote sized critters (the largest I've tried ...

Go to Levergun Leatherworks

He makes slings that have a butt cuff on one end and loop around the barrel on the other. He has pictures of a couple of them. He's a custom guy, so you can have it your way.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Discussing fashion. It's beginning to sound like my wife and her friends.

Jeepnik, Go to the nearest reservation, only a direct vital organ hit from .22 hornet or up can kill a res. cat. Just grab the first one you see. Res. cats are TUFF !!!!!!!! The only reservations out my way are for the purpose of obtaining income from gambling. The folks are doing well now, and I'm...

OI, you like em so much, how bout I sent a few as gifts. They killed off all but one of their natural enemies (the only one left is cars), now they and possums, skunks, squirls and rats are becoming a problem. The smaller mice and such are no problem for the cats. Last cat I had that went after the ...

Oh heck. A little late for me. Feds got my prints and such almost forty years ago. State picked them up along the way for state licenses of one type or another. It's doubtful that anyone, unless you have lived in a cave and never dealt with the government, is not on a list somewhere. I figure the on...

Both boys were in Iraq when this started, then went back twice more the older to Iraq and Afghanistan, the other Iraq. Both have some hearing loss (they were Marine grunts). It's not just the sound, but also blast pressure. And even with hearing protection, an M4 in a stone building will do some dam...

Levergun Leatherworks has one model that has a butt cuff on one end, and loops around the barrel on the other. Looks right smart. Contact him at http://www.levergunleather.com/index.htm Should you decide to go with the more traditional manner of slinging you mentioned, he makes beautiful slings for ...

Wow, never expected this thing to go on for three pages. I just wanted to acknowlege the type of folks we have here. Makes one happy to be associated with this group.

As long as we are mentioning the combat record of hollywood stars, James Arness didn't get that limb playing golf, Jimmy Stewart "retired" as a BG from the Air Force Reserve. The list could go on and on. Sadly, one of the reasons "Hollywood" is as it is today, is that few of the ...

Imagine what would have happened if he'd had one of them fast acting assault slide rules. Why, they's have had to ground every plane in the US. Yea, that was a really brilliant move. Sorta accomplished exactly what they wanted.

Now for a somewhat different view. We are a capitalist country. I have a product to sell, I set the price. If you want it for that price, you buy and it's yours. If you think it costs too much, you don't buy it, and I don't make a profit. Personally, I think the government should just stay out of it...

Like the looks of the current production "classics". I really like old Smiths. I haven't handled any of the new classics yet. How are the actions compared to pre war models?

Seems to me, the 870 safety could be reversed. Don't know why I seem to recall that, as I "know" they make/made southpaw 870's. I'm looking at one in the safe as I write this.

One of the judges comments sounded very strange to me. He "lured" them at knife point. Now maybe I speak a different english, but if one lures someone, they are enticing them. Making someone do something at knife point is "forcing" them. Oh well, may be the Aussies still have a b...

You know, with all the fancy coatings and such today, I'm suprised no one has come up with one to seal an entire basement to make it "watertight". I suppose some might worry it could "float", like I've seen empty pools do, but pools don't have the weight of the above grond struct...

Something I've noticed. On this forum, and a few others that deal with leverguns, and sixguns, folks often refer to others as "gentlemen". I haven't noticed that same sort of thing at Glock Talk or AR15.com. I wonder whether it is the general age of the folks here, or just the way we were ...

Well that tears it. From now on, I suggest that San Francisco cops be banned from chasing folks. Why, they might hurt themselves.

A sad thing to here. If you ever needed one, a helo pilot was the best thing you ever saw. Possibly quite a few folks on this forum, your truely included, would'nt be here today with out that particular breed of aviator.

Interestingly enough, I was where I was today. I left my house the same time this morning and took the same drive. Sometimes, it's funny how little some things change when the entire world has changes. I took the same drive home. Along the Pacific Coast Highway. This was different. http://i49.photob...

Those old timers were only partly right. During the day and evening, you regret the things you didn't do. But, every morning when you get out of bed, you regret every darned one of the stupid things you did. Think of them as "here, hold my beer while I show you this" moments. We've all had...

One word, wonderwads. Does away with the "grease" issue. The wad is set between the powder and the ball. It effectively stops "chain firing". Though, I've always wondered how ofter the grease was used in th heat of battle. I can't see a horseman loading one of those things on a g...

Alas, unture, but funny none the less.

My take is pretty simple. Education is never a bad thing. What people do with the education can be good or bad, but the teaching of a subject isn't. Now, I grew up in SoCal in the 60's. I think most folks have heard the old saying, "Sex, drugs, and rock & roll". A fair description of p...

Notify the building owner, that if he fails to control his pest problem, you will be sueing him for the damages to your car's paint. Take photos and send them along to him. Some folks just need a bit prodding.

I can heartily reccomend the Scout Squad. It's enough smaller than the M1A as to be very handy. I loved the M14, but it is a handful. The SOCOM versions have quite a few unnecessary (for me) features. After I had mine and had used it for a bit, I realized that this is the weapon the M16 should have ...

Well, I was never that fast. But I did learn how to clear jams pretty quickly. It sounds like this is a series. I wonder what other weapons this tyke can strip and reassemble. Darned impressive.

Fellas, you have it wrong. He is a scumbag, since that isn't a crime we don't need to allege it. But he, also, happens to be an alleged thief.

Did some work on a couple of Fed prisons during and shortly after the construction. Had a shot at the work after they were populated and turned it down. I don't need the hassles. And trust me, it would be a pain. After construction, but before they were populated, they were swept for security reason...

Might think about getting a ORH (one ragged hole) rear sight. You'll never get the pretty groups you got as a youngster, but it makes using iron sights for a few more years possible. In addition, I've found they are very fast.

For a pump shotgun I think a shellholder sling might be the better way to go...at least that's the route I'm planning on with my Remington 870 Tactical. I like the "sidesaddle" for shotguns - http://www.gunaccessories.com/TacticalShotgun/Sidesaddle/SidesaddleShotshellCarrier.asp But they ...

Oh now, let's not start a cross country set to. I've heard a few things about Maine, but for now I'll remain a gentlemen and not mention them.

Look close, and you'll see an XS.

Look a little funny? Well, I ended up mounting it backwards. It puts the ghost ring a bit further from the eye. Sort of a peep/ghost ring kinda view. Works well for me.

jeepnik

Personally, I like it. It's a great way to carry extra ammo. It's always with the gun. As to turning brass green. Yea, it can happen, but it takes a bit. Never had a problem on any trip I've taken.

One of the very best aspects of working or ones self, is that if "I" don't like you, no matter what the reason, "I" don't have to deal with you. Some folks may not like it, but there it is. Too many folks are too worried about the next pay check, let alone pay raise to be true to...
