Well I thought it was funny. Remember, It's just a Joke. It's just a joke.

Now this would be a great job for my shiftless, drunken ex brother in law. Wonder where I can pick up an application for him. He could start tomorrow!!

Since I own the company and all of my Real Estate agents are paid on commission they have my whole hearted support to view firearm sites to their hearts content. NO PORN THOUGH. (Unless it's gun porn.) heehee

We are so sorry to hear of your terrible loss. Prayers are going out from our family for your family this evening. God Bless you and yours.

I have lived here in Northern Maine all my life. I also worked for seven years for a company on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. (commuting back and forth believe it or not) (Great fun that was). I found that Northern Maine and Eastern Shore Virginia were very similiar as far as people and...

My goodness man, buy the thing. Great deal. Those Rugers are very solid and dependable firearms. Good Luck.

I shot a 200 lb Maine Black Bear with a 45 acp. Three times before it died. It'll do the job in a pinch but unless you place that shot just right big big troubles could be roaring your way. That day I thought I was gonna pass out when that thing finally dropped, about 15 feet from me. The...

Not sure. I've tried to crimp 30-30 with my RCBS dies but found that doing the crimping with the Lee FCD (factory crimp die) works much better. It's very easy to ruin the shoulders on 30-30s while trying to crimp them. (and no it's not always an overlubing problem) I gave up and used the FCD...

Springfield: O.K. Let's try it this way to attempt to calm this post down a bit. As Springmom so adroitly pointed out....THR is probably the most conservative, responsible and well educated group of gun fans on the internet today. When you posted, and then continued to post, questions...

Slapnut: First of all welcome to the High Road. You just can't beat this forum. Great experience, very clean respectful folk with lots and lots of knowledge. I guess I'd agree with most of the other posters. Remington 870 in 12ga, Remington 700 in either 308 or 30-06. For the pistol if you...

Salthouse: I live and hunt in Northern Maine. I am afraid that we will have a pretty sparse harvest this season. Last winter was one of the very worst ever in terms of decimating the local deer herd. I think you are making a wise decision.

Mrs. Mainebear uses a 410 because she has shoulder and back problems that preclude her shooting anything with more recoil. Anything more powerful and she's in bed for a couple of days. She's a good shot with the thing too!!

I own a Real Estate company. I don't have anything blocked. While an agent is waiting for a client I'm not paying them so they can watch anything they want. You see, they are not paid until they sell something. It costs me nothing and makes them very happy. Besides, were all shooters here...

Amen to that Ben. Interesting to see what price range most of us own and how many though.

Welcome to the THR. Lots and lots of nice folks with great info and really great minds. Nice and clean and respectful too.
