Don't Do It I do not advertise as a rule since I got popped. I do not have any stickers on my vehicle, but I did have a small Glock sticker on a roof-top "pod" type carrier I had mounted on my roof rack (the kind you use for skis and such). I was moving at the time and happened to have a lot...

From a Local I prefer Bracken Range. SaltGrass is a chain. Fleming's, is the the "F" from PF Chang's, the Steakhouse by the same guy behind PF Changs. I think their meat is OK, but their sides are great. I still feel the best Steak in town is at Morton's of Chicago on the Riverwalk. I'd...

How do the hogs get into the feeder pen? It looks like he used horse panels all around and that would certainly keep out cattle, but also hogs I would think?

Bolt to Floor? Based largely on knowledge gained from this site and the postings of a1abdj and CB900f, I bought a real safe. My safe was used. Sea World was updating all their safes, and I got one of their old ones. The walls are over 2" thick tool resistant steel with an inch layer of...

I have a close friend who is an attorney who did our wills here in Texas. Actually it was a set of about 7 documents that we signed: Trust for the kid, physicians directive etc. Since the only material things I really care about are my guns, he had me just prepare a separate addendum. The...

MEMORABLE HUNTS. Like a lot of young boys, I thought my Father was superman. From a very early age I can remember wanting to go hunting with him. He has this old army rucksack that he has owned for at least 40 years. That was the bag where he kept his ammo, knives and other hunting gear...

I can speak from experience When moving cross country returning to my home state of Texas from the West Coast, I took everything I didn't trust to the moving company with me in my SUV. This of course included guns and ammo, but also the family dog, the wedding albums, that kind of thing. I...

From Winchester: "Thank you very much for taking the time to contact us here at Winchester Ammunition. We are always glad to hear from our many friends and customers who share in the shooting sport. The ammunition you are looking for is currently on a backorder status. Winchester...

I sent an e-mail to Winchester asking them about the availability of this load. Will advise response.

I recently bought a new 580 series mini-14 GB. After getting the irons zeroed, I mounted a scope to test several different types of .233 ammo to see what the gun likes. I had boxes or partial boxes of about 8 different types of 223 ammo. Everything from 69 grn Federal gold medal all the way...

Thanks I appreciate the information. I figure the gun is at least 100 years old? Would that be correct? The thought of checking for loads crossed my mind when I was taking the photo of the muzzle crown! I didn't know how, but the cleaning rod idea is very helpful. Will do post haste...

I was wondering if anyone here could tell me about this gun. My neighbor mentioned he had an old muzzle-loading shotgun one day and asked if I would like to have it. I said yes, and he was back with it in about 2 minutes. It is interesting because the right barrel is a rifle barrel that...

J-frame I too am in the South Texas heat. I carried a full size 1911 until then end of May when I couldn't take the sweating anymore and bought a J-frame Centennial. I bought it used at the SAXET gunshow for cheap. The Powder Horn gun shop on the West Side had several used ones in their case...

Opinions I live in San Antonio, a great place. You have all the information here, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I like the Bracken Range. They are serious about safety and have good solid benches. 100 yd rifle range, $7/gun. I took my CHL class there. I don't care for the bullethole because...

www.samplelist.com SWFA's site for close-outs, re-furbs, trade-ins, and demos. I found the best price there.

I found the same thing They are hard to find and expensive. I finally found one for my .270 A bolt at a Cabela's retail store. I paid about $43.

I am working on my Father's early 70's vintage Ruger M77 for him. I am giving it a deep cleaning, mounting up a more modern scope, etc. The gun has always been scary accurate and hunted hard. But probably has around 500 rounds down the tube, total. The factory stock has what is left of the...

I am a little funny about optics. Especially binoculars. You spent a lot of time behind that glass. I ended up with the Leica 10X42 Ultravids after researching for about a year. I upgraded from a pair of Steiner 8X30's. I love the Leicas, but I still loan out my Steiners to new hunters in...
