Nothing prevents you from using your build in a rifle season. I solely used my Thompson Renegade sidelock .50 last cow season and the hunt was like getting reschooled in the 1850s. I know it's unpopular but I totally agree with state regs pushing back on modern rifle optics on muzzleloaders. I don't necessarily agree with iron sights though, since tubes were period optics in the 19th century. I guess shooting accurately out past 200 yards is unfair too? http://www.namlhunt.com/mlscopes.html

Exactly what I was going to say. I keep one in the truck. Going hunting I'm always coming across old campsites, homesteads and mines. I've found rings, coins, a pocket watch, civil war era buttons and bullets.

This model is still widely used and sought after. I have two White's and a Minelab, can't use all three.

My phone is saying this number is invalid, so free bump

Also those plow horses sure resemble mules. I gotta give the cameraman some credit, pretty good shots considering the camera technology of the day. And some of those shots while on horseback also.

Sweet. Trades, partials etc? & a bump to boot
-
That's a great offer

In UT I would surround the house in straw bales during winter leaving only the doors and windows bare. The deer and elk would show up soon after and like MuledeerArea33 said, I could literally reach out a bedroom window and punch them when their antics got too loud.

If you're looking for a been there, done that kinda horse, look no more. Zazzy is a 9 year old grade quarterhorse mare standing 14.2hh. She has been trained in cutting, sorting, trails, packing and running barrels. Her first time in the arena running barrels recently she did a 19 second run, fourth place in the jackpot. She reins so well, she'd be perfect at gymkhana.That's her on the left.That's her in back. Message me with a phone number and I can send videos. $2800

We are north of Surprise. Folks are asking why we're selling animals, saddles, etc... We just have too many. Not crazy to introduce a 10 year old to horsemanship, perfect age to get knowledgeable guidance from an instructor in equine care, tacking and riding. But an older horse is generally best for training a youngster. Zazzy is a performance oriented horse, sensitive to the touch and any miscues could result in some unexpected, rapid movements. Putting a novice rider of any age on a performance horse is not a safe option. But if you're on the west side of the valley and would like to introduce your girl or yourself to horses, please pm me. Come out, meet some horses and take a ride under controlled, safe and supervised guidance. Hope to hear from ya. Thank you

Oak cross bucks with pine humane boards. Always kept indoors when not in use. Should fit horses 1000lbs or less, smaller mules. You're welcome to fit it before buying. $100

No those aren't the facts. She had her BFs DNA found in her undergarments, Kobes DNA in her. She also had signs of force like bleeding, bruised neck from strangulation. In court, Kobe said he was into that stuff with all his GFs but his wife wasn't so he had to cheat on her. Maybe he turned his life around? So sad for all those lost. The radio station was blaming the NWS for not issuing a fog alert. But anyone knows fog when they see it, and pilots in that region know to look for it and how to deal with it. Wonder what kind of pressure the pilot may have been under if fog was the case.

A sound, fit horse like this can do 25-30 miles in a day with 1/3 their body weight with rider. I'd put a 1/4 dead weight on. Zazzy is a Poco Quixote bred cutting horse, which are light, agile animals. Neck reins, spins, slides.. I estimate her around 800lbs. This horse has excellent confirmation.

Yes, he constricted his prey

Last chance for CWT members wanting a seasoned, sane and sound mount... Have a probable buyer test riding next weekend.

Several years ago a friend asked me to disperse most of his late father's estate. The old timer must have been a colorful character. He lived a minimalist life style even though he had retired from Ratheon with a good nest egg and pension. But he had simple needs and lived on a small farm in Cochise with his horses and dogs. Spent his golden years packing into unit 33 mostly and hunted as much as possible. He built a small shop on his acreage and lived in a kit garage with dirt floors. When the prostate cancer weakened him to exhaustion, he settled into assisted living and therefore was not home when his property flooded. The moisture had ruined a lot of his possesions when I started to gather them and some items were just tossed. But there were a few items I put into a drawer for another day. SCIENCE!!! Yesterday I started the restoration of these items. All with moving parts were so badly rusted, they no longer had moving parts. Time to experiment with electrolysis. 5 gallon bucket of water with approx 1 tablespoon of salt per gallon water for electrolytes. I hung the items needing cleaned from a piece of sucker rod I could ground from the old battery charger. I would set the charger to 6V, 3 amps. The anodes were a couple of iron grading stakes I had laying around. I connected them together with jumper cables but it didn't seem to matter having 2 anodes since all the oxidation migrated to the one anode even though my volt meter indicated voltage at both. Put the rusty items through the electrolysis overnight and got up to this view. Its important to do this outside, as the process creates hydrogen since you're separating H2O. Additionally, using salt for the electrolytes makes for chlorine gas. After 18 hours, here's the result... I was thrilled to see this antique actually operate again. The breech opens, ejector, hammer, trigger all moving again. She's going back in for more electrolysis. The right side of the pistol was facing the anode so it came out cleanest, so I turned the gun around 180' to work more on the left side. In case you're wondering, it's an Iver Johnson, 5 shot Top Break Safety .32 S&W short. Same model used to assassinate Pres. McKinley 119 years ago.
