    Youth Javelina 2017 is in the Books

    Congrats. I'm pretty sure my son will be fine with me carrying his off the hill until I'm senile.

    23 Youth elk and deer camp

    No this is not the pumpkin center camp. This one is on the 512 just south off the 260 a bit. Pumpkin center camp is already full. Good luck on your hunt.

    Woua line for what? A point at which it's no longer about just the second amendment and what should be available to the public. I think that if the founding fathers knew the direction firearms would eventually go with full auto, bump stocks, mass murder etc. I think they might have had some things added to the amendment. I'm not for gun control generally speaking. I have no problem with AR's, silencers etc but I also see a practical use for them. I don't see much practical use for full auto. And yes I get that shooting full auto has got to be fun as heck and I would love to, but if there's no practical use I don't think it should be available to the public. Come on.. even the NRA is speaking out on this one. Has nothing to do with giving up freedoms. Would outlawing bump stocks prevent the massacres? No. Nor would it have prevented any other massacre, Sandy Hook, Columbine, 9/11, OK City etc, etc. Were bump stock used? If you want rapid fire from your AR, finger your belt loop and push forward on the fore stock, instant bump stock. Outlaw belt loops? Besides, anyone with half a brain can build a bump stock in a couple hours. Where do you draw the line? Any freedom taken away is a freedom lost forever. Understand the 2nd amendment, it's not there so you can shoot skeet, it's there to fight an oppressive government. It protects all other amendments and as it is eroded, so are all other rights. NRA has been wrong in the past and they're wrong again. I'm in agreement with most of what your saying. After columbine, sandy hook and any other tragedy I never once thought that guns were the problem. No they didn't use bump stocks and thank God for that because it would have been waaaay worse. This last event is the only one that ever made me think that a line should be drawn at least somewhere though.

    Don't have a good answer for that. Just stating my opinion is all. Cant undo whats already been done so I don't know how that would pan out.

    Why Sad? We already lost the ability to keep the government in check. The closest we can come is on voting day. If any group righteous or not tried to rise up against the govt. they would be labeled a terror group and be destroyed. We lost that control long ago.

    I'm all for the dentist killing the lion. And I'm not blaming the gun. I'm also not a lib.

    Yes that could happen I suppose. It could be happening now with cat hunting, trapping etc. And when I have the chance I will make my vote count. Like I said earlier this is just my opinion. I realize it may be an unpopular one. But is there a point when even we as gun owners and hunters can say "well maybe this is going a bit to far"?

    Honestly there was no way for them to know what would take place in the distant future so no i don't think they were. Also I thought full autos were allowed with the ATF stamp the same as silencers. I could be wrong on that though. Also the verbiage "well regulated militia" what does that mean excatly? Military or the general public? Bump stocks are a bit of a grey area I suppose but either way, taking them away I don't believe infringes on the right to bear arms, it's simply drawing the line I alluded to earlier.

    I agree with the NRA but I aint crouching down and licking no ones hand. As a gun owner or not shouldn't there be a line drawn somewhere?
  14. So I've done a ton of painting over the years and always thought about if there was a more efficient faster way. Its a 3 color job. White ceilings, tan walls and white semi on the doors and trim. Here is how I've always done it but I want to hear how you might do it. 1. Mask of floor, windows, cabinetry etc with hand maskers and pre folded film of different lengths. I prefer the 1.5" white masking tape that HD sells in the sleeve. 2. Paint the ceilings first. 3. Paint the doors and jambs and the interior of the closets, then paint the the floor trim with a small tip. Leave for the day with the house heat on and fan cycling overnight. 4. Mask off the doors going into closets with 72" from the top and drape it down to the floor and run tape up the sides of the trim and fold over on the film blocking off the closets. I do the same for entry doors and sliders. 5. Then I will run the hand masker on the floor trim with either 6" or 8" paper. 6. Once I'm ready for the walls I will go around on the stilts with a shield and do the top of the wall down far enough so I can blow and go on the walls after the lid is cut in. I usually do this with two guys and have them swapping out the shield for me with a clean one. 7. Blow and go on the walls and pull all the masking. Occasionally I will use blue tape on the freshly painted trim to have less touch up. I just don't like how it can blow off on you. So the biggest two questions are do you ever hand cut in the lid or even run a masker upside down on the ceiling with paper? And do you always go lid first, trim, then walls or do you do the walls and then do the doors and trim last. I did it this way once but it was tough trying not to mess up the walls and lids when doing the jambs. I think I'm doing it the fastest way but just curious. I would have asked on an old contractor forum I was on but cant get my password figured out. Thanks

    Daughter's First Elk

    That's awesome! Congrats to her. I too cut myself a couple times now I have cut resistant gloves for me and the kids. I just throw them in the wash afterwards and they go back in the pack. I think they were like $10 on amazon.

    Definitely sounded like full auto to me. I know that there's a device that essentially uses the recoil to somehow make an AR fire like it's a full auto but is not technically full auto. I'm not sure what it is called. I'm really not for gun control laws generally but I don't personally think the general public should have access to full auto weapons. Just my opinion.

    How long do you sit?

    Depends on the terrain. Down here in 35a I can glass for awhile then be sure it's time to move. Up where I'm planning on hunting in 23 on my son's youth hunt I think I could sit at one spot all day because it's so thick that I could probably keep going over the same areas over and over and eventually will see something decent.
  18. What's your reasoning for spraying the walls first then masking them off? Why not spray the ceiling first? Seems like a waste of material if I'm understanding you correctly. The only reason I can think of is that it's easier than trying to mask the ceiling instead. Personally the only time I ever mask off walls is when I'm doing a popcorn removal job.
  19. I'm personally much faster spraying then I am rolling. Plus working on stilts is a time saver for me as long the guys keep crap off the floor. Also most of the flooring is getting replaced. Plus I hate rolling at this point.

    Volunteer Game Deputies

    I think it's a good idea. They gave power to guys to help get caught up on the G&F field days so why not. Maybe not have 10 guys trained to be on lookout as much as a few guys per unit that can respond to calls called in by other hunters. Advertise it like operation game thief where you can call in on violations that these guys can follow up on rather than just giving random hunters authority that could be abused. Got a buddy that's a AZ Ranger and it's all volunteer and they are all sworn in. I don't see how something like this couldn't work.

    Opinions/help with my stepson

    When I first started taking my kids fishing I'd get annoyed if they didn't sit and watch there rods. I soon realized forcing a kid to be patient will only have the exact opposite effect that I want. Now if they go I let them pretty much run wild and I watch the rods. Which ever kid is there when I have a run gets the fish. As long as they look back and remember fishing being fun that will make them want to do it later in life. Even if most time at the lake isn't actually fishing.
