    what do you use for squirrels

    Gamo .17 air rifle for the most part. I do like the PBA ammo. I still use a Browning Grade 1 occasionally. Almost forgot. If ya want some fun (and I often do) use an RWS Diana .17 air pistol or similar.

    Knife Sharpener

    Or, you can just go to Wal-Mart (or anywhere else that carries them) and pick up a Wilson pocket sharpener for about $8. I use mine for most of my knives because it's quick and I can literally shave with them after a few strokes. It works almost as well as my various sharpening stones. So...

    Is your Mayor on this list?

    Not my mayor (I don't have one being in the country), but nearby, Jerry Abramson, Mayor for Life of Louisville, KY, is a complete uber liberal joke. Aside from his stance on firearms, his main goal in political life seems to be spending Louisville rich. (For you northerners who didn't follow...

    Deer Rifles

    Almost forgot. NEF Handi Rifle in 45-70 for primitive weapons season in Mississippi with the brother-in-law. Gotta love Mississippi's primitive weapons guidelines.

    Deer Rifles

    In the brush, I use a Ruger .44 mag carbine. It doesn't mind the occasional twig very much. I'd trust it on any KY white tail, like this one: If I'm shooting in or over a field, Weatherby Vanguard in 30.06. Ranges here in KY tend to be much shorter than those I used to hunt in AZ...

    Can I bring a sidearm with me on my motorcycle trip back home?

    Congrats on surviving The Citadel. Now, go to work, buy a Harley with a tour pack and you'll solve that locking problem. :neener: I ride a classic with a sidecar. It's a great place to keep the cooler. Also, if my wife's with me and she gets too wordy, I just clip a coupla mailboxes...

    Transfer in state, NJ, of 22 rifle from uncle to myself

    You need to read the entire code. There are provisions for legally buying long guns from licensed out-of-state dealers. title 18 USC 922 b.3 will clarify a bit. I do not reside in NJ and have only a passing familiarity with their draconian firearms laws. I only know enough to realize...

    Handgun Ammo Shortage?

    Dunn's Sporting Goods Paducah, KY Whittaker Guns West Louisville, KY (No. West Louisville is NOT part of Louisville. It's 100 miles west.) Uncle Lee's Greenville, KY. All have reasonable quantities and are willing to ship. Bought Federal .22LR 40gr for $13.00 a brick within the...

    Where did the SKS's go?

    You can still find them in the $200-$300 range at auctionarms.com. Wish I still had all of 'em I bought in the 80's for 60-80 bucks. Still got enough for when the zombies come - I think. I'm still loading up on mags and ammo.

    How “Prepared” Are You…Really?

    Practice, practice, practice. Doc Severinsen said it about his trumpet, but it applies directly to firearms: "If I don't practice for one day, I know it. If I don't practice for two days, the band knows it. If I don't practice for three days, everybody knows it." Also, when you're not...

    Stop animal harm! Buy meat at the store!

    Reminds me of a radio news story during the Feb. ice storm. A station in Louisville was doing interviews at a hardware store, asking folks about generators. One lady was asked if she was worries about possible asphyxiation if her her soon-to-be-purchased generator weren't vemted properly...

    Good Samaratan, CCW, takes out Bad Guy FL

    I see it as a question of doing the right thing or doing the safe thing. Would the folks at BK have been safer had the good guy stood by and left his piece holstered? Most likely. Knowing that's it's almost purely hypothetical, I'm still forced to consider the safety of the (now dead)...

    Hunting with Air Guns

    I dunno. I've taken everything up to and including groundhogs with my RWS .177. Lately I've been using a Gamo. It produces just over 1,000 fps with lead ammo. I get almost 1,300 fps. with PBA alloy ammo. I've never used it much past 50 yds., but the .177 has done the trick for me...

    What is the last handgun you got in 2004?

    Thompson 1911 for a project. My 1911's are multiplying like bunnies!

    Are taurus snubbies good guns?

    I've had at least a half dozen Taurus revolvers and have been pleased with all of them. I'm particularly pleased with my 85. Several thousand rounds through it and no problems at all. On the other hand, my carry piece right now varies between the PT145 and a Colt Defender. My wife carries...
