I wish they would have put their efforts into Sunday hunting instead.

Compressed air. Just make sure you have it point in a safe direction because it will come out with significant force.

There is not much real close to Patrick as far as hunting - it's pretty built up around there. There is waterfowl north and south. Down around Palm Bay there is lots of duck hunting but it's hard to get into without an airboat or a boat with a mud motor. There are some WMA's in that part...

I have one -- it's a nice looking (it has real wood not the fake looking stuff they have used on other models), light, reliable gun. Two criticisms: the recoil system is mostly marketing hype and the trigger should be better for this level of gun. I would include a trigger job in the...

The lawyer who drafted my recent trust advised a separate bank account but I've never followed through on it. I had acquired most of my items prior to having that trust so i didn't see the point. If the government is going to take your NFA items, it will be based on new legislation that...

I wonder if the machine gun and silencer spin on this was the perp's idea or if it was suggested by the FBI agent supplying the arms? It seems awful convenient to be able to demonize silencers as evil terrorist tools given the recent actions of the administration at "fixing" non-existent...

USPS allows shipment of long guns between unlicensed individuals within the same state as long as it's not otherwise prohibited. http://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c4_009.htm

I came across one deer hunting in early December in Pennsylvania a few years ago. I thought it was a skinny dog running around at first. I kind of doubt it made it.

I don't have that can but an older 30P-1. They make a top quality product that they really stand behind. I got an adapter stuck in mine (not their fault - bad threading on the adapter) and they took care of it and had my can back to me within about 10 days including making me the proper adapter.

The american public has been conditioned by Hollywood that silencers are the tools of criminals and deranged snipers. Until the public views them differently, the politicians aren't going to touch any changes to the way they are regulated.

The original Finnlight stocks were okay but noting special. The newer ST (soft touch) stock is much nicer. The rubber texture on the ST makes it easier to handle in wet conditions and quieter.

I had my safe in the garage when I lived in Florida for 5+ yrs. With a golden rod and some desiccant, I never had any problems with rust. Just make sure you wipe down your stuff before you put it way. Sweaty hands or drops of sweat from your forehead will definitely cause rust spots. Also...

Mine's not that short (18 inches) but the recoil is about like a 12 gauge shot gun. You're going to get a good bit more of muzzle blast and noise with a short barrel, however. Since you are using it for bear defense, make sure you really ring in out with the exact load and bullet and mags you...

+1 on job box. Store the ammo in ammo cans and humidity won't be an issue. I've done this for many years and never had any issues.

A gram of Tritium is a huge amount in regard to these type of devices. I'm not sure how much tritium an ACOG uses but it is probably a Curie or less. For reference a self-illuminated exit sign uses about 25 curies. Using the above quoted $30,000 per gram figure, that would be about $3...
