Just to chime in my own .02: The previous mention that ticks can only transmit Lyme or RMSF if attached for twenty-four hours is false. Most of the literature that I've read on the subject indicates that the tick is only more likely to transmit either disease after being attached to the skin...

Haha, that had me actually laughing out loud. Seconds on the piss fence around the campsite too. Seems to work for other nocturnal predators too- of the four toed and soft treaded kind.

Appreciate the replies. Think I'll play it safe and stay north of Phoenix, checking out the areas up around there. Haven't seen much of these areas of the country, and it'll give me a chance to see a bit more of parts of Texas and Oklahoma I haven't been. Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is in the appropriate forum, and please move it otherwise. I just couldn't really think where else to post it. I'm taking a trip in late August/early September out west and am wanting to camp/hike/fish at as many of the vast BLM lands out there as possible. After doing...

Not sure if this belongs in this forum or in Rifle Country, but here goes. Looking for two replacement parts for my Romanian PSL-54C so that I can sell this baby off. I allowed my younger brother to disassemble and clean this when I first bought it from Century Arms and as a result of my...

You said a few nights out in the woods if you become disoriented. Remember the rule of 3: 3 hours exposure, 3 days water, 3 weeks food. Food, in this case, would be the last of my worries, especially if I'm only to be out for a few days. Additionally, I assume that your party would be made...

I have a Romanian PSL-54C, which I bought new from Centerfire Systems. I did a full cleaning, but have yet to shoot it. I'm thinking about selling or trading it in for a more desirable bolt rifle.

I'm not sure about the tarnish stains...they could be leftover cosmoline, though if it's a shooter most of that probably has already been cycled through and burned off. Generally I will disassemble all my military surplus rifles and add them to a pot of boiling water until they appear to have...

Though I don't have personal experience with this knife, I've heard nothing but good things from around the internet regarding it's suitability as a bush knife. Fallkniven F1 http://www.fallkniven.com/en/shop/details/370/24/fixed-blades/survival-knives/f1 I've been researching this knife for...

The stickiness may just be my imagination. I asked my two roommates to handle the stock and they both told me I was crazy, it looked good, and no sticky residue of any kind. Maybe my hands were dirty at the time, I don't know. Perhaps I should buff it again with the #0000 steel wool and give...

Hello all, I've been perusing these forums for awhile now and appreciate all the valuable info I've been able to glean from the posts. Awhile back I purchased a re-arsenal Mosin sniper. As the first "project" gun I owned, I decided to refinish the stock myself using info I gained...
