This much outrage over the forum it is posted in??? 🤦‍♂️ Sorry birddogg21, I try to be pretty respectful in here, but the most extreme thing I see posted in this thread are your comments. There are real problems in this word, including some poor kid taking his own life, and the OP facing what could turn into a serious situation. I think we could cut him some slack about something as trivial as his forum choice.

Do the typical glass the sunny sides of hills in the morning. Check out saddles near bigger hills. Not sure if the sun is out up in 6A today but glassing upper parts of hills should find them rooting around. Good luck! ETA: find the catclaw, they feel invisible in it. Really, they are hard to see when in catclaw.

It would probably be a pillow fight. With really soft pillows of course and no shots to the head.

Hope the kids don’t read how you are inviting people over to fight about it!

Elk rifle is my term. I have several rifles and use them accordingly.

To get the answer to your question about how soft I may or not be. I wanted to make sure you had the opportunity Find out.

Can an admin move this to the campfire please. There’s way too many youths in the classified section buying guns, they don’t need to see this.

Why would I call you lmao

I bought the .30 cal Omega with the quick change unit a few years ago. I love the suppressor and found for me the quick detach was too heavy on the end of the barrel for me. I use it direct thread with thread adapters for 300 black out, .223 AR15 and Savage model 11 .270 WSM. I use high temp grease to LIGHTLY grease the treads and it stays tight until I'm ready to change guns. I can change easily at the range in no time at all. One thing you'll need to check is your rifle zero before and after screwing 11 ounces on the end of your barrel. Mine all change dramatically from suppressed to non-suppressed. Average is at least 6" one way or another. Don't think you can shoot with your brake and then screw on a suppressor without sighting the gun back in- that dog won't hunt. 21BE208C-BCEB-4A37-AFB1-AC22D5A9CF3A.heic

I had a similar situation while I managed a gun store. It actually happened 3 times that I'm aware of.One was literally in the car just minutes after and I spoke with the family on scene. Just was shock but no follow up conversation. One was a murder suicide an hour later that I had spent an hour with them picking out the gun, holster, etc never even occurred to me was a possibility. and one was the mother bringing the gun back to the store to remove it from her life. Very difficult conversation but she was just grief stricken. In today's world though and given a choice, I would opt out. Good luck. That's a hard one. I would consult a lawyer if you decide to.

Negative 👎 I would not talk to them. Sorry but that is just screaming trouble. Sad deal for sure.

"I'm sorry for your loss. I see no need to meet." Good luck, Eddie

I would have a good talk to a lawyer first. Cover all bases.

What a horrible tragedy if what she is telling you is true. That being said, I'd be very leery of any conversations with the family of the deceased in fear of some kind of future litigation. You weren't a friend of this kid. you didn't know him. If he hung himself with a rope, would she go to Ace hardware and try to strike a conversation with the fellow that sold him the rope? Maybe I sound heartless, but If I were you, I wouldn't meet her.

In the last two months, I have seen both trusts and individual between 6-11mo. 6-9 months ago, individuals were 3-4mo while trusts were 8-10mo. The caveat is, past wait times do not predict what wait times will be for an application submitted today. Do not believe anyone that says they know what wait times will be. I can tell you that submitting an ATF application now, at least gets you in line, and that not submitting an app is a sure way not to get an approval.

Big bulls can be had. Hopefully me and this bull meet up during the early archery hunt.

I got my 2020 javelina on January 20th during Fort Huachucas archery javelina hunt. I had hunted every weekend and free day all month without seeing any javelina. I had been hunting areas that had produced javelina for me before, usually glassing from dawn to dusk. All the areas I was hunting had javelina sign in them, but I just couldn’t find them. I was beginning to think I wouldn’t fill my tag this year. After glassing all morning in a spot where I had taken a javelina every year for the past three years, and still seeing nothing, I decide to try something different. Two years ago I had been predator calling in a place a few miles away and called in some javelina. I decided to quit what I was doing and go check out that spot. The spot was near a pond in an area that seemed like a good bedding area. I set up on the north side of the pond and started blowing on a predator call. After a few minutes I saw a lone javelina in the brush on the other side of the pond. He kept coming closer and stopped on the far edge of the pond. He stopped just outside of my comfortable range so I decide not to take a shot. He milled around for a little bit and then left. I tried to follow after him but had to give up because the brush was too thick to stalk trough. I headed back to my spot on the north side of the pond. I waited around for a while contemplating my next move feeling disappointed. Just then I spotted something moving in the brush on the other side of the pond. It was a lone javelina coming around the east side of the pond and heading north. When he disappeared from view I nocked an arrow and headed in his direction hoping to intercept him. I hadn’t moved very far when he popped up less than 10 yards in front of me. He froze looking in my direction as I fumbled with my release trying to hook it to my bow string. After what seemed like a long time I hooked my string and drew my bow. Just as he started to leave I put an arrow in him and he dropped a few feet away. I’m pretty sure this was the same javelina I had called in earlier. He weighed 38 lbs dressed and is the first boar javelina I’ve ever taken. I thank God that I was able to take this animal after a long hunt that I didn’t think would work out. When what you usually do isn’t working don’t be afraid to try something new.

Here's the important thing, yeah, we know it isn't going anywhere but 12 out of 13 Democratic Senators either sponsored or endorsed this bill. That means 12 people need to get voted out of their office in their districts. Only by voting these guys out can we send the clearest message. If you endorse or support these bills, we will remove you from office.

@ThomC Everyone else seems to have constructive criticism. I don't expect any technology to make me a better hunter just as explaining the difference between software and hardware won't make you any kinder.

Mehh, too many moving parts and procedures for us guzzling gourmets. I'll stick with my Traegers, quick heat up, and simple operation. Push a button, put on meat. take of meat, pus a button to turn off. I dont want to be the guy in" You might be a redneck, if you've ever been too drunk to grill". I'd forget to open a door to start it or slide in the damper when its done and burn a whole stack of 'coal.

Found this matched set on the wifes first quad ride/antler hunting trip. We pulled over to have a break and almost parked on one. While I was picking the first one up she was looking for the match and found it. She was pretty excited. (And, No I didn't "let her find it". She remembered me telling her that the big guys will often shed them both fairly close to each other because they don't want to walk around lopsided.)

It is a good and interesting topic. People love it so much more.

A little something from out of state

I like the 2 point and small shed collection I have. Shed to the right of the mount actually scores 100 " ! Looked for the other side for 2 days. 23" G2. Could have been well over 200" typical on the hoof.

I made a paperweight!
