    Ever been attacked by something when hunting?

    Talons to the face by a hawk while sitting in a deer stand. The tips of two toes chomped off by a javelina. Bobcat scratched right arm and hand while turkey hunting. Left hand bitten by a squirrel. Bitten by a rattle snake on 6 different occasions. Bitten by scorpions on 3 seperate events...

    Less Lethal Shotgun rounds against humans/animals yea or nay?

    There is never a week that goes by, that I am not asked to help gather such evidence. Again, reply was just short without spending hours writing on a more complex level.

    Less Lethal Shotgun rounds against humans/animals yea or nay?

    I have been a Federal Law Enforcement Officer for over 20 years, and speaking from a civilian point of view, if you "wound" someone that has broken into your house, and say that you shot and crippled them, you could be held liable for their medical bills for the rest of your life! I have set on...

    Shotgun for 12 year old girl

    Weatherby SA-08 in a 20 ga. youth model. Very well balanced and minimal recoil from a gas operated semi-auto. Any load from 3/4 oz. reloads to 3" steel shot, it has never failed to function. This gun comes with 2 seperate gas pistons, marked "Light" and "Heavy", and any 7/8 oz. load or...

    Less Lethal Shotgun rounds against humans/animals yea or nay?

    If I am going to pull a gun on someone or something, I am going to kill it! Dead men tell no tales, and watching an animal crawl off to die a lingering death is uncalled for! If you are not going to kill "it" outright, then leave your guns locked up and out of your hands!

    Another 870 question, this time about slug guns

    I have just over 60 boxes of the Remington Buckhammer slugs, which was my reason for mentioning them.

    Another 870 question, this time about slug guns

    If shots are not going to be 100 yards or less, go with a standard Remington 870, use a full choke and foster style slugs, have the receiver drilled and tapped for a solid scope base mount, and most definitely have the barrel pinned to the receiver! This is not a permanent installation, but it...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Upset, I seriously doubt that. Dave is one of the best Christian men I have ever met and it shows in the way runs his business, which is why we have been using him all these years. He treats everyone the same. I have a couple of close friends that are not as fortunate as we are, where I can just...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Nothing "bad" is going to happen, but my unspoken point being that it might not be finished for this year's deer season without your name being on the list, or not at least the beginning part. My wife and 2 of our daughters, picked up a Ruger yesterday and had it overnighted to Dave's shop, so...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Dave White, and someone I have used for over 30 years. You can text him at (918) 576-3217 or send him an email at [email protected] Be sure and tell him that the Texas Carpman from THR sent you, and he would most likely extend his fall hunting discount to you. Just don't mention...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Sneakshot92, I think we are BOTH lucky! My wife shoots a lot of rounds through her guns, and she is very proficient with them. But with the shot that she pulled off this morning, I think I'm the lucky one, because I now have someone else to revolver hunt with me. I'll be in Dallas tomorrow to...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    One thing we found very interesting, is that for a 44 magnum revolver, unlike a rifle, the muzzle brake does not increase the noise level, and won't blow your eardrums out in case you forget or don't have time to put ear plugs in before taking a shot. Recoil wise, I have shot a lot of different...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Fall hunting special was $500 off regular price, so they cost me $1,000 each, with me providing the guns and scopes. I cannot remember everything that was done, but here I what I do remember. The 10 1/2" barrels were cut back just enough to remove the front sight screw hole, the muzzle was...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    This is one of my daughters customized 10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk revolvers, and another daughters Ruger Super Redhawk. This is my favorite Ruger Super Blackhawk. We have all killed a lot of javelina, wild hogs and coyotes out to 250 yards with these guns, hunting from tower blinds...

    10 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk Accuracy Capability

    Never really could get use to the factory wood grips, and the Pachmayr Presentation gripS were always my favorite. I put the Hogue finger groove grips on a couple of these long barreled Super Blackhawks and set them up for sling carry and scoped for easier carrying and more accurate shooting...

    Interesting New Budget Turk

    You can get a Weatherby Orion with 30" ported barrels and an adjustable comb for just under $850 from Buds. We bought 3 of them for ourselves and 3 for loaners a couple of years ago, and with well over 100,000 rounds later between the 6 guns, there has not been one single issue or complaint...

    22 magnum for a ccw?

    I carry an S&W Airweight 7 shot 22 magnum as a CCW and don't feel undergunned with it. I've seen 2 legged vermin that were shot with a 22 magnum, and the holes it left were quite impressive to say the least.

    Trophy vs. Meat

    Wankerjake, I don't believe I could eat that! Too RAW in the middle for me liking. I wouldn't be opposed to having someone come out and shoot a 300" whitetail. Just depends on where I will be at, at that time of year.

    Trophy vs. Meat

    I know this first deer personally, and he's 344" / farm raised. The biggest is over 600"!!! I have deer like this one come up in my front yard to eat apples and pears in the Fall. You can say what you want, but there are none of these deer that I would put on my wall. The only animal...
