    Price Competition...who paid the least for a Mosin??

    I would guess a lot of guys are about to say $35. I paid $150.

    Flashlight + scope on bolt-action rifle

    I suppose I've just never conceived of shooting at anything outside, at night, with a scoped rifle before. That sounds like good hunting.

    Feel Like Buying a Shotgun Rather than Rifle??

    Go look at used rifles. You can probably find something with a scope already mounted or try and save a few bucks by getting something with open sights.

    The newer 870 Express, better machining/finishing??

    My 1100 is the express version. I Duracoated it black and it looks great. No more pits and no more rust. Anyways it's good to hear that maybe they caught on.

    check this out actual real ad picture

    With all this stupid stuff you would ask who would buy this junk? However there is a market for junk in the realm of firearms (as with everything else) and it's easy to avoid. Good find. I almost always get a good laugh out of this stuff. Anyone remember when Extreme Shock ammo came out?

    Don't bring a knife to a gun fight

    Ok so you carry the world's smallest hand gun but then carry a knife that's larger? I have to hear about this one.

    How close is you nearest HD gun right now?

    My 870 is sitting in a case right next to my Bellini M1S90. Which are both about the same distance away as my machete.

    Safe/adviseable to go fishing alone?

    Whenever you go out hunting or fishing you should always assume some dumb rednecks are also in the woods, probably with guns, booze, or both. Carry a pistol. If you don't have a pistol carry a flare gun.

    Please critique my bug-out/bug-in system.

    Cash is light and can be used to start fires but what are the quarters for? Your in the city, which sucks. I live about 45 minutes Nord of Boston. I would definitely keep a small bottle of bleach on you. A small amount can be used to disinfect a lot of water. In Boston, clean water's...

    Brenneke slugs vs Level 3A Ballistics Vest

    I think it's a good indicator, as real world situations are never in ideal conditions. I was surprised that the brenneke didn't go through, however I understand why it didn't. Aim for the head.

    Older Double Barrel and Steel Shot?

    Proof tested just means it's OK to use smokeless powder in the gun. It's similar to "Nitro" tested. It's assumed that a firearm made today is to be used with smokeless powder, so you don't see that as much on new gun. I don't think black powder cartridges were being widely used in the 50's but...

    HD shotgun... Pistol grip or standard stock?

    Get a pistol grip and get a full stock. Go to the range and shoot 10 rounds with the pistol grip, then 10 rounds with the regular stock. Don't pussy foot around. Bring your tools with you and change the stock at the range. Nobody is going to judge you for trying different things. Use...

    Knives in Inaccessible Packaging

    When I was looking for a hunting rifle the salesman wouldn't let me dry fire any of the rifles. I didn't buy from them either.
