Makes a lot of sense, thank you both. I don't carry my pistol other than while hunting. I've seen a few tempting offerings on the forum but they'll occasionally require a LTCH.
Just a quick question. What's the purpose or reason behind asking to see a LTCH during a long gun FTF purchase? Obviously the seller sets the terms. I'm just curious why that's semi common.
No one tailed any one. :) And you're right, they were very pleasant people and I enjoyed the hike out with them. You win, benefit of the doubt given. No harm was intended here (you seem to be reading some.)
Fair enough. I didn't give a lot of thought to my language. I saw something questionable and asked some folks more knowledgeable if I should report it. From your few posts on the topic, I can see that you fall squarely in the "no" column. My concern here is not seeing that the tiniest infraction...
Seedubs1, thanks a lot for the offer! I'm really tempted, but I do like the coloring on the forest camo and was looking to have him put sling points in for the additional $8. Where are you located?
Apologies if this has been discussed previously.. I was looking to replace the tapco stock that the previous owner of my 10/22 had installed. They didn't include the original stock, of course! I really like the look of the laminate thumbhole stocks out there and think I've settled on the Boyd's...
I'm right there with you, CBR1000rr. I guess that's half of my question. The box does say on it all hunters are required to sign in and out to legally hunt. I don't know that they weren't properly licensed. I do know that they failed to sign in or out.
I don't have enough information to report...
I didn't really think much of it at the time, honestly. Not enough to take notes about hair color, height, license plates. I'm not trying to be a "snitch." :-/
Headed out to Brookeville after work yesterday to find some tree rats. Hiked back a bit and sat in the woods enjoying the peace and hearing plenty of activity but not seeing much.
Ended up getting a nice big fox squirrel who all but presented himself to me on a tall stump 45 yards out. But...
Hate to get argumentative, and perhaps I read your tone as aggressive when it wasn't intended... but that's reducing things to the absurd. Killing mice that enter my domicile and pose a health hazard to my family, or interfere with my food is one thing. He'd also probably provide entertainment...
Thanks! Glad to be here. Great conversations and friendly folk.
Thanks to both of you for the informative answers. I wasn't aware! Makes sense now. Happy hunting. :-)
Just an amateur's curiosity here, what does one do with 100 dead prairie dogs? Are they eaten? Pelts? Sounds like a really fun and decently inexpensive trip to consider, but I'd be concerned about wanton shooting of even a "pest" animal without some way to use the remains.
Edit: Not meaning to...
Nabbed my first this past Wednesday. The undergrowth and foliage were thick near Brookeville lake. As were the heat and mosquitos! Overall a fun, if sweaty, day in the woods.
Saw a few rabbit hopping around and a couple of doe too!
Been a lurker for a while now, and I really appreciate this forum for its often engaging discussions and great members. Thank you!
I have a question and hopefully one of you have an answer. I live in southeast Indiana and love going and shooting up some paper targets at the Brookeville range...
