      Useless thread, 6000 one-liners: You can own and carry but?

      :thatshot: I have not seen a quality pair like those in quite sometime.

      Where to get rid of used motor oil?

      In that quantity, Safety Kleen or any other oil recycling company should readily purchase it from you. I had one of their Reps. purchase a hitch off of me and informed me of this.... so I got a barrel and .... well you can figure out the rest. Also, as said before, anyone that sells oil is...

      Squirrel Problem

      Those nice high powered BB guns.... yeah that would do. Its not a pellet gun and it is not a Firearm per-say according to how I read that ordinance. However, there is a designated Squirrel hunting season. I believe it is Aug 15th until Jan sometime. I would suggest to get your general hunting...

      AR15's. What are you NOT a fan of?

      The part I dislike the most about the platform, is the people that have them and have zero training in firearms safety or how to properly use the rifle. They think... Hey man, I have a AR15. You can now call me Billy Bad Ass, or Bad Ass for short. I would guess that also falls into the Mall...

      XD SC 9mm Thoughts and Recommendations

      I am looking for opinions for this specific firearm and ideas to make it a little better/user friendly. I am purchasing one next Friday. I took my wife with me to test it out and she loved it also. We also shot it at night to familiarize ourselves with the night sights. Great! Now I have a...

      New Fish

      Ahh... I am looking forward to some bullet therapy tomorrow. Hopefully there is a moving target or 2 for me to warm up with. I heard some coyotes when I took my dogs out about an hour ago... so hopefully I get to bury another/several tomorrow!

      How high do you hunt?

      I typically hunt in a 2 man ladder stand. Usually are 16ft. I did hunt in a older single stand last year about 18ft. Height is not the winning factor here as stated before. It is technique and sometimes luck of the draw that puts the meat in the freezer. I sometimes hunt on the ground in...

      Coyote Down

      I have shot quite a few this year. Best was 2 weeks ago while helping a buddy develop a load for his .338 Lapua, one strutted into the range we were using. We ranged it at 610 yards and took an educated guess with the wind... held 5 MIL high and hit it right in the middle of the right shoulder...

      ar15 partial bolt close problem

      Being open only 1/2" the hammer has been reset. The last 1/2"ish is the bolt camming into the chamber...unless there is 1/2" of brass exposed.... then that is a different story altogether and you might be onto something. Upon rereading the first statement he states a slight tug on the...

      HELP...coyote almost killed my dog!

      I have a small 10 acre woods not far from my home.... it is full of them. I have taken a few out on my property without any thought about it. I have seen them in daylight around here they are so bad... so I do not discriminate against them, I am an equal opportunity coyote person... I'll shoot...

      Deputy attempts to justify seizing LTC handguns during traffic stop

      I guess the old saying is correct about assuming.....Here hold my beer and I'll go get my stick so we can beat the horse at the same time.

      So what is the problem with "dry firing"?

      Marine here... same tactics and teachings.... for the most part. I was an Armorer for 10 years I think most of it comes from the rimfire dry firing issues. I know that if there is new "data" about this someone will chime in with it, but to my knowledge.. it does not harm a centerfire...

      Training Class as a Christmas Gift

      Deputy attempts to justify seizing LTC handguns during traffic stop

      Wow!!! Common sense comes in here.......That is where you inform the LEO of your intentions.....dont just whip it out and go to town handling it to unload it. That will not end in your favor......ever Sorry, I figured that the common sense factor was involved in this discussion. I understand...

      Best 12GA defense round

      Agreed... My wife can and has shot my 12ga with a 3" magnum slug in it. Now did she like it... hell no, but neither do most men. It takes training and proper handling to fire these behemoths correctly. I dont live in an apartment, but my recommendation would be 00 or 000 buckshot. I have...

      ar15 partial bolt close problem

      Is this rifle a Carbine model or a A1/A2 variant? The buffer spring would be a good one to look at IMO. I have seen a Carbine length spring installed in a fixed stock variant and cause a similar issue while I was an Armorer.... That one took a lot of head scratching and :dunno: to figure out...

      Best Survival Rifle? Why?

      I agree with the .22 being ideally the weapon of choice for most instances. Its light, cheap, reliable and most are relatively accurate and will not deafen you. You can carry a great deal of ammo for one also. It is a very underestimated round by most. I shoot mine to 150-200 yards on...

      Deputy attempts to justify seizing LTC handguns during traffic stop

      I learned this philosophy from an crusty old Gunny..."Never mistake my kindness for weakness, it will bite you in the a** every time" I am always nice, until time not to be nice. That does not mean that I am being complacent by any means, as I rarely ever let my guard down.... even at home...
