    For the love of god just call the cops.....

    Use 'em when you can. I was photographing on a heavily wooded lot where a building is going in and a rabid coon showed up and started following me around. I had a pistol in the car, legally in Texas, permit, et, but was in town and decided this was just the thing for the guys who sign up to...

    Best Mauser Rifle?

    1891 Mauser I don't think the Swedes consider their rifle a Mauser at all. Nice rifle though. Swedes aside I prefer the 1891 Argentine Carbines. Tiny-est Mausers ever made in 7.65. Shot deer with both of mine and handloads. The 1909 Argentine Carbine is the next favorite/ Shot...

    Sending Ammo

    Another example of why gun laws need simplification and revision. A felony. Ridiculous.

    Montana Firearm's Freedom Act

    Freedom This brings into focus that pesky question about who the foes of freedom and American life are: Those AK waving Islamic terrorists, foreign powers...or the Federal Government? More please.

    Punctured Primers DPMS Panther

    Erosion in the bolt face? When they start piercing the tip of the firing pin erodes- which makes them MORE likely to erode more and pierce more, but also the hole that the tip of the firing pin protrudes through the bolt face also erodes. Erosion in that area can make even a new pin come...

    Let's make a pro-gun video

    I wouldn't do this by committee.... ....just get your idea and go. Easy to do. Watch the lighting and background. Keep the talk simple. Don't mention the 2nd Amendment. Just talk about "choice." I'd get the camera off the tripod and let it move. Check the Blackfork6 Channel on...

    Texas Open Carry Petition

    TSRA If the Texas State Rifle Association isn't on board with their lobbiest, Alice Tripp, then this isn't going anywhere. Bills have to have sponsors and a lobby to organize testimony in front of the right (and friendly) committees, co-sponsors to buttonhole and trade votes on the floor-...

    Basic ammo load for SHTF

    Malvo and Mohammed.. .....shut down the central Eastern Coast of the US with one 20 round box of .223. They had ammo left over when they were found asleep in their car. Most folks get through deer season firing less than 3 rounds. You don't need 10K rounds if the SHTF.

    My buck this year

    Boiling his head? How you going to mount that guy? Nice deer. .223 fine for deer as long as the shooter can place the bullet. Good job. http://www.youtube.com/user/Blackfork6

    Okey, whats your favorite spot to aim in deer ?

    Depends If they are close with open sights, I would try a head shot. Close is under 50 yards. Farther out I aim behind the shoulder. Most of my rifles shoot above the front blade so I hold six-oclock. I've killed deer with Krag, 1903A3, Garand, Jap T44, Swede M38, Arg 1909 Carbine, Arg...

    Right clothing for deer hunting?

    Alpenflage jumpsuit and some pump spray. I rattle for bucks. I wear US army long underwear, which is cheap and very effective, layer up and usually wear a Swiss jumpsuit over it. Works for East Texas. I put doe pee in a small pump bottle and buck scent in another. I spray my rubber boots...

    Should I do this?

    Love to see the photos Why not a clown suit and big flappy shoes? But of course, FIRST you have to do it. That's a lot of confidence to put in a snubnosed .38. Shoot well. Deer deserve respect.

    Smith County, Texas

    Long hunt so far It's been a long hunt since the first of November. I was out nearly every morning and night until I wore myself out. Took a week off. Hate to think it's over, and it isn't. I shot a doe last week up a Clarksville on a MLDP with my 1903A3 and have as many as I can shoot left...

    Smith County, Texas

    Found the jacket for the GameKing Under the skin on the far side. I was mistaken. I went back and looked and I did have him on cam a couple weeks back. Boiling the skull down for the mount. Skull with antlers and jawbones will go on the wall with the date and stats written on the roof...

    Smith County, Texas

    Hunt with game cams all year and have had them up for four years so I get a look at what is going on on the property. I just have five acres but it's contiguous with a creek bottom and several thousand acres of prime habitat. When we bought the lakehouse in the 60s there weren't any deer...

    Apparently I suck at hunting

    Here's the deer I was after. Blew it by shooting the other. He's still out there. At least three trophy bucks in the area. Note the blood on his back tines on the left in one photo. Still fighting and fighting hard. Only a buck his size would dare fight him.

    Apparently I suck at hunting

    It takes some experience. It's a process, not a destination. You'll get more successful as you stay with it. Here's my deer from yesterday. I've been hunting this little piece of land for....30 years. It gets a little better every year. Deer really coming back. I use game cams and run...
