      (Avoiding) Friendly Fire

      Suppose one lives in a free state in which concealed carry is not uncommon. Consider a hypothetical scenario in which you are at a public event with many hundreds of attendees, and a murdering psycho comes along and starts shooting at people. People are screaming and running around in chaos. You...

      3rd Circuit Case - Range v Atty General Non-Violent Misdemeanor as a Prohibitor

      At first I was skeptical because I thought the guy was a convicted drugrunner/gangbanger which sounds violent to me. But then it states that he is Prohibited from carrying a gun BECAUSE he was carrying a gun?! GTFO

      Casual Trap Shooting O/U Shotgun?

      I've almost exclusively shot 5 stand as i am a bird hunter and i want to practice them coming from every direction. On a recent outing, i had a youth from a competition team work in with me while his coach stood behind and gave him instruction. He stood with gun near the ready position and...

      Fillet Knife and sharpening

      +1 for the Spyderco Sharpmaker. Can get a fantastic edge if you work through the 4 sticks in order. I've been meaning to order an extra coarse stick for some knives that need a whole new edge. I have also always had a serrated filet knife for saltwater fishing. Some of those pelagics and reef...

      Sika stamp NR increase

      It is because of our FEDERAL system that wildlife is managed at the state level. I believe firmly in local management of local habitat/populations. Not sure I can say that for federal ownership of public lands. (To be clear, what I'm saying is that I'm okay with each state's fish & game...

      Sika stamp NR increase

      Well, as a former resident who used to hunt sika but never got one, this certainly diminishes the likelihood I'll ever make the trip back to try to finish the game. I also just learned that only 10% of black bear tags go to nonresidents. Again, I have several pref points built up from when I...

      Carry weapons for women?

      Anyone familiar with the Ruger Security 9? Mrs.Tex went to the gun show with me, handled a bunch, and this one fit her hand quite nicely. Unfortunately, none of the local ranges have one in rental. But I so see them for sale for exceptionally cheap (<$300!!)

      Old mre's

      Uncle Sam fed me expired MREs. They're just MREs. Calories not haute cuisine. Mine stay in a cupboard and if I ever need to pull them out, I won't be that worried about flavor

      How to find turkeys on public land?

      While I agree that success calling birds down off the roost is low. ... HOT DAMN when it works is it awesome!! Talking to those birds on the roost. ... "yelp yelp GOBBLE yelp GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE" and then 20 minutes later he's thundering in. Ooh it gets your blood going (The rest of the time...

      How to find turkeys on public land?

      Yep. Find a high, preferably open, spot in the terrain before sunrise, sit and wait and listen. They typically gobble in the pre-dawn twilight before they get off the roost. At that hour, a locator call won't help. Once you hear them, finding the roost can be very hard but worthwhile to try to...

      Browning A5 and goose hunting

      TBH I haven't had a chance at a goose with BOSS yet, but I shoot their 5s. My recommendation for 4s was based on the BOSS website and OP saying he was shooting a full choke at decoying birds. Probably can't go wrong with anything in the 2-4 range, but no need to shoot BB or 1 shot like we do...

      Browning A5 and goose hunting

      BLUF: Yep, shell out for non-steel loads. Personally, I switched to BOSS copper-coated bismuth this year for waterfowl after patterning my gun showed it well worth the money. Copper is softer than both steel & bismuth, so it's better for pre-80s barrels than either of those. You have to choke...

      Browning Citori - new vs old

      But, in terms of fit to shoulder - the same or similar to a modern Citori, or different? Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

      Browning Citori - new vs old

      I have a guy with a nice Browning Citori for sale from the late 70s or early 80s. Price is right, pics look good, but I am not able to drive out to see it with my own eyes. My question is about fitment - I've handled modern Citoris and they fit me quite nicely. Has the design or fit changed...
