    Shot my First Deer Yesterday

    I have to say I'm a little jealous of your season over there. Deer season has been over here for two months. Congrats! I got my dad on his first deer this year at the age of 61.

    Some notes about the NRA.

    It is not armor piercing and it is used by millions of gun owners. If you don't care because you don't use it then you get on a really slippery slope. If they manage to ban this ammo what will be next? By the time that they get around to banning the ammo that you shoot we won't have a leg to...

    High Standard .22

    From the barrel back it looks like a Duramatic. No idea what's going on with the rest of it. I'm thinking it may be a hack job but I could be wrong. Hope it's a good shooter at the least. Those old Hi Standards are hard to beat.

    Guns and cartridges you expect will be extinct in 30 years

    I don't think any modern popular cartridges will go by the wayside in the next 30 years. Could you imagine 9mm or .45ACP being non existent within that time? Around here anyway (TN) revolvers are really popular and used ones always bring a good price to the seller. Of course most everyone who...

    Lantern question while hunting/camping

    It's been a few years but I used to do a lot of catfishing at night. My Coleman propane lantern was my standby. I used it everynight. It could light up an entire pontoon boat. I also used to for coon hunting some but it gets a little heavy to carry that much. One of the things that I like...

    Do any of you guys make your own salt licks for deer?

    I used to just throw a 50 pound block out on the ground. They are cheap and would last a couple of years.

    Savannah, GA visit planned. CCW friendly?

    I've spent a good amount of time in Savannah. Crab Shack is great, as is the Shell house in Savannah. Skip Paula Dean's it's not worth it. The Wilke's Boarding house is really good and I'll second the recommendation for Vinnie Van Gogo's. If you stay in the Historic District you will be...

    tennessee hog hunting

    Tennessee no longer has a pig season. They can be hunted only on a couple of WMAs and on private land. The catch with private land is that the landowner can only designate 10 hog hunters on his property per year, so unless you know someone private land is pretty much a non option. Might try...

    Arrested for reporting a MWAG....

    What if you live in a state that doesn't have concealed permits? Here in Tennessee we have a "handgun carry permit" that allows us to carry open or concealed. Do you choose to not educate yourself about things before you post or are you just a troll?

    Guns on Credit or Layaway

    I'm too financially conservative to put guns on a credit card or layaway. If I get the gun on layaway 3/4 paid for them have an emergency where I need to use the remaining funds I'm going to loose that money. I think that if I can't afford it in cash right then then I don't need to buy it...

    Considering "wilderness hunting lodge" in TN

    I read all the posts in this thread, I also read the Wilderness website in detail, additionally I used to live in the area of the lodge and I am familiar with the company and their practices. I maintain that hunting in any fenced area is unsportsmanlike. You can call it what you want but...

    Considering "wilderness hunting lodge" in TN

    This is not hunting, this is killing an animal in a fenced enclosure. Hunting implies a possibility of failure. This is no different than walking out into a cow pasture, picking the one you like and putting it down, no sport to it. Personally I'm against this sort of thing just because I...

    No hunting in Tenn parks?

    As this thread has been up for a while and I don't feel that it has adequately been answered I will chime in. I can't think of any state parks that allow hunting, however there are a number of wildlife management areas (WMAs) which are open to the public to hunt with a permit. I've lived in...

    Killing People Over "Stuff"

    Legally no, ethically I think that if you catch someone stealing your stuff you should be able to kill them on the spot no questions asked. I ride too and I've always noticed around here anyway that motorcycle people have a strong tendency to be gun people as well. Most all of my friends own...
