    What was your first marksmanship badge of honor? .....

    Only 'Medal' was at age 12 when dad took me to a deadmark shoot and first time up with my crusty old single shot 12 ga won a ham against the fanciest gun there. Dad's smile was all the medal I needed.

    Is there any data on the number of guns owned per state, and/or the percentage/ratio of citizens/gun ownership by state?

    I was in that area when new West Windsor starter castle residents attempted to close the range on Rt. 571. I always remember my father's comments seeing the signs 'East Windsor' FIREARMS USE RESTRICTED at the township line. Yet just driving around Assinpink WMA seeing the number of families...

    The PA ‘One-of-a-Kind’ Flintlock Deer Season Turns 50!

    No scopes, Peep sights and fiber optics are allowed. Un-used buck tag becomes any area/any sex tag so you can explore areas where you do not have a doe tag. You get an extra two weeks in the three 'special reg' WMU's around major cities with thousands of doe tags and little patches of public...

    Have we been getting into the woods too early for deer?

    My camp is on the edge of the state forest near a few developments that grew up since the 50's. One of the neighbors in the oldest development commented about the daily 'shift change' seeing the deer leaving the neighborhood as he leaves for work and returning around the time he gets home. My...

    Can you test your guns on public hunting lands?

    PA says only at established ranges but my camp is in a township where shooting is not restricted and the nearby houses shoot into the state forest all the time so I have a steel that sits on a T post and will add to the noise with a couple magazines when I visit.

    Open Carry Is Now Viable in 30 States. Should We Push the Envelope & Carry? Or Just Have it Rare?

    Time and place using a 'tuckable' holster most of the time. Returning from a day hunting game lands and OC in a wawa in central bucks doesn't raise an eyebrow, including when the local PD is in line too. 0430 on my way out it wasn't noticed at wawa either but now that it's new and big, it's covered.
