    Hats, cameras, shooting rests, decent optic companies with exceptional warranties, particular rifle cartridges, CWT has taught me it's possible to hate just about anything!

    This is a pretty cool old gun. Made in the late 1920's or early 1930's, this gun was given to those who purchased Marlin stock. There were not many made. I haven't fired it but I have cycled 2 1/2" shells through it and it is very slick. You can not use 3" ammo with it. The buttplate has been broken on it and I ordered a reproduction plate for it. You won't see many of these. $1300 located in south Tempe area.

    Wow lots of judging going on, I guess your dapper Dan hair cream was cool. I'm 51 and wish I looked good in a flat brimmed hat. I was a catcher always wore my hat backwards and sometimes still do, so I guess I'm a duchbag. I'm good with that, names calling means nothing to me. And for the young hunters with flat brimmed hats maybe if you weren't better hunters then some of us old guys you wouldn't be hated so much. Quit killing big shoot on long hikes. I agree everything posted on here anymore will be hated and shoot talked about by some holly then thu asscrack. Live and let live. Don't change anything because someone has issues. Just my take. Please continue

    I bought a badlands 2200 pack in 2005 and still use it as my main "day pack". I can cinch it down so it doesn't feel like it's taking up too much room or cram it full of "stuff" if I'm on an all-day jaunt in bad weather or going a long way. Regarding pirogue's zipper comment, I've had the pull tabs break on some of the zippers on my 2200, Aside from putting small key rings on the zipper heads to pull with, they all still work fine after 14 years of heavy use. Note that I am careful with my equipment which may lead to having fewer problems with it, but with all manufactured things, there are some lemons out there. The Badlands 2200 isn't a one-pack-does-all pack, but IMHO the best "day pack" I've ever used which can carry about 50# comfortably if need be. I've used it on rifle deer hunts packing my Zeiss 15x60s and Manfrotto tripod as well as the rifle in the rifle "pouch", and have used it extensively on archery elk hunts. I have an old Gerry internal frame backpack for carrying meat as well as a Kelty packframe with a "shelf" I added when needed. The Gerry is clearly the most comfortable for carrying a lot of weight (in the form of just meat), but the Kelty is best for tying on things like pigs, whole or half whitetails and the like, Here's my recommendations: 1) Decide how much you really have to spend 2) Decide what you need most as in a pack for weight or a day pack 3) Figure out your limitations... not everyone can strap on 100# of meat and head for the truck... 4) For any pack you get, make sure it fits your frame. Even the daypacks should have the ability to keep the weight off your shoulders (internal frame), because if not, you're not going to be liking it very much after a long day on your feet. 5) Remember, carrying meat is likely only 1/10th of the time (or less) you're spending in the field. You may be able to get by with a good external frame for carrying the load if it has a very good waist belt system and good shoulder straps. Your focus may need to be on what you really need on a daily basis as that's going to be the bulk of your time in the woods. One pack can do it all, but as Lance and others in the past have (accurately) identified, they're not cheap to get that all-in-one. Those are great for sure, but when you're in line at Bashas and you want to purchase groceries with a single $10 bill, you can't walk out with $20 worth of groceries. my two cents...

    I’ll split the difference...... turkeys in a tree no. Ducks on a pond yes. Archery from a road no BUT...I’m not sure what’s shown in the video is a “road”

    So in summery we all agree that not every flat bill wearer is a douchbag. And these types of wannabe famous insta-hunters are what’s wrong with hunting these days 😜😜😜😜😜

    Haha I really don’t care about any of this. Everybody has there own style. My hats are flatter because my dad always smacked the shoot out of me so I had to keep my peripherals clear!

    Very nice! You’re gonna grin the first few times you pass someone on a two lane highway and you go from 65 to 85 in a few seconds when the turbo spools up!

    If you think this a UofA thing versus an ASU thing, you may be even more ignorant than the author.

    Don't worry to much, then there are people like my daughter. A 17 year old Junior at the UofA, that has a "guns save lives" sticker on her laptop and registered as a Republican at a very liberal voter registration drive. I am pretty sure in ten years she and the driven people like her will take over the meek and put them in check.

    All the signatures appear to be students, not the administration of the U of A. I think you'll find the students at nearly every university to be unbelievably liberal these days, so not a big surprise.

    Tundra if you are planning on keeping it and if you dont mind the limited mpg. I have 210k on my 2010 and the only thing mechanical is that I lost my fuel pump in Dec at 208k miles and I put a stick through the radiator.No leaks anywhere and still doesn't burn oil...You have seen where I take mine on an almost daily basis. It is my wood getting truck, hunting rig and daily driver.. I do wear tires fast after I torqued my frame couple years back after hitting the end of a tow strap too many times. Consequences of getting calls in the middle of the night. My father has an 01Tundra that had fuel pump replaced at 230k. No leaks at all and has 345k on it right now..my brother still uses it as a daily driver still. I am sold on the strength and reliability of a Tundra, I have owned a fair amount of trucks but dont see myself owning anything different. That being said there are plenty of good trucks out there but not many that will give you good service over 150k.
