After years of waiting to get a turkey tag I finally completed a bucket list item. My brother called in this bird in on the 2nd day I was able to hunt. 2oz of #7 1/2 shot bing pushed by about 5 drams of black powder. W C Scott and Son 8 gauge hammer gun made in 1888. Picture of my brother posing with my 8 gauge and bird.

Arizona like many other states had a ruling that no shotgun bigger than a 10 gauge can be used on game.I set out about 14 years ago working with the AZ Game and fish department to allow the use of the 8 gauge for hunting all wildlife that could be hunted with lower gauge shotguns. ( Migratory birds are governed the federal G&F) so waterfowl or example cannot be hunted with the 8 gauge. I owned 2 8 gauges at the time. Fortunately the Commissioner at the time agreed with me ( he did not accept the panels original decision to deny my request.) The panel felt that AZ hunters might be confused and shoot migratory birds with the 8 gauge. My response was earlier today the department suspended a hunters license for 5 years for taking two deer in the same year. The hunter argued he was not aware that this was a violation. Ignorance was an excuse for not knowing the law. The panel was directed to go back and figure out how to allow the 8 gauge. Further banning the 8 gauge did not make sense after all 3 1/2 “ 12 and 10 gauges can carry an equally large payload. Other states allow the 8 gauge. The goal should be to harvest the game you are hunting as effectively as possible. As long as the hunter abides by the limit and hunts ethically. As the law stands today you can hunt all big game with the exception of bison. As well you can hunt predators and upland game with the 8. I have now taken turkeys in New Mexico and Florida as well. If any members have 8 gauges it would be nice to hear from you. PS calling in coyotes using the old 8 gauge is a blast.

Should have posted this yesterday Russ. I fill up the company vehicle and my diesel truck on the Rez. I paid $3.35 for diesel last week.

Bruno's also has them but i like to trade eldx.

I stopped caring much about whiners on ths site long ago. Had a Wall Tent with Floor and Fly for sale...was something like $2200 retail....had been used twice. Asked $1400 and when I rejected a guy for $1000 this other punk got on and started harrassing me for not lowering my price. I decided then and there that cheap bastards exist, people butt in where they shouldn't, and I wasn't going to GAF about it. I just do what I feel is right and that's all I can do.

I know this is Full Draw archers so I am assuming ABA Happening is cancelled again this year as well. BS is an understatement. Might be time to move on to Clints Wells.

Sold

Bunch of BS.

Alittle high ….40 yard blood trail

IMO the people selling them don’t use them enough to justify being out $4k+… I bet the other half need some money and it’s a quick way to get $4k back. They are nice but hard to justify for a lot of people cause most guys can still kill plenty with a good pair of 15s. But If you have got the money I say get you a BTX!

I humbly disagree. I recently made a deal with a guy, but he was going on vacation and would I hold the gun for him until he returns. Sure. Upon return, he stated that he spent too much money on vacation, and can I wait for payday. On payday, I messaged, and dude is gone. This is after I reduced my price for him, Ghosted. I bent for several of his terms, and then he backs out. No harm, no foul, but frustrating.

Is this still available?

Looks like there isnt a shoot this yr again at Mormon Lake.
