My son is in the National Guard and just boarded his plane for deployment to Afghanistan. We were able to face time with just before he boarded. Very emotional for his wife and his mother. As a tough old veteran and ex Leo I tried not to show it, but I discovered it is a lot harder to send your son...

some of these are too painful....

it doesn't really increase the light, but helps the candle stay light in the wind.....

Great article (someone posted about it over on PredatorMasters.com) about Coyotes and Human Scent (click for link) . It's worth a read if you hunt fur -- which could include deer hunters too, as some of the noted behaviors might also apply to whitetails. Old No7 good stuff - thanks for posting that...

Merle

nice !!!

Merle

very nice - how old is it?

Really lovely hammer double. Any more ideas on who made it and where? Bill, I'm just unsure......... The top rib is Marked "ACIER MANNEMAN SPECIAL", so I think it may have been made by someone named MannemanN. The action watertable has what looks like a Belgian proofmark (a crowned vertic...

Guns are inaccurate if they don't have free-floated barrels, or if they don't have precision bedding, or specially-lapped bolt-lugs, and if the barrel isn't cryogenically treated it is usually not going to be very accurate. All that aside, if you don't use a Leupold or other high-grade optic, the g...
