    Starling Shooting

    Grew up-m in W.Va during the 50's, we lived on the fringe of a small town and kept a garden.......well, we tried, those Starlings would lay waste to tomatos and the plants just as AF describes. I acquired a crossman c02 in .22 so as to not overly disturb our elderly neighbors and that served...

    Bad News for Deer Hunters: CWD in 2 Men

    I see where Florida has extended it's doe season to the entire general period in area "D"..........north Florida. Take is supposed to include the five deer limit on private land only. I'll reserve my normally acid commentary on the agency, but at least they recognize the issue.

    Ankle Holsters

    Of all the dumb ways to carry, ankle rigs gotta rank at the top!! Oh yeah, you can hid that gun fairly well, mostly, just don't try running or getting to it easily other than from a sitting position......and even then you meet with difficulty. I have personally seen one...

    Old Dixie's been gone now 40 years.......hard for me to believe. She was a purebred Bluetic coon hound......heavy dog with feet bigger than a fat biscuit, had a voice that absolutely boomed except when she was running, then it sounded like a faraway train. First wife bought her and her...

    Given a mec 650 press

    Yes on the sizer.......mine came with a 'ring' sizer set up in one of the die stations.............junk, only served to bind the press up. Bought the SS from Mid=South I believe....on sale and I have never had a problem with fat based picked up range shells since. Far a loads go, stick with...

    Given a mec 650 press

    I have an old one too. Crimping dies are the old metal ones but the thing works well once you become familiar with the cycle. I put one of the adjustable charge bars on mine, but I'd likely have been ok with the stock bars as it came. Mec is supportive in my experience and most parts are...

    Boiled linseed finish dull, best way to purty it up?

    If you want an authentic LO finish then just keep on keepin' on! Very small amount rubbed into the stock till you hand is hot! Keep that up till that wood will not accept any more. The classic old finish takes time and repeated application to gain that soft glow. Yeah, you can quick...

    Should a American Citizen, With No Legal Disqualifications, Be Able to Board a Bus,Train, Subway or Plane with a Firearm?
