    Black Bear Attack - Wash State.

    Hey guys, my wife (a bear lover) looked at these photos and she thinks they are cut and paste jobs.......After she told me that, I looked at them again. They look well done, but look close at the one of the guy sitting in the lounge chair petting the bear with his right hand. If you look close...

    Guns and Magnets

    No experience here. I doubt it would cause any problems. Any magnetism imparted to the mag spring would likely be so slight as to be non noticeable as the tension of the spring would be far stronger. And of course the ammo is all non-ferrous unless you are using steel cases and/or milsurp ball ammo.

    Juggle a hand grenade long enough and the pin is likely gonna slip out. I sure wouldn't want to be there when it happens.:eek:

    Black Bear Attack - Wash State.

    We have a vacation place in the mountains......I have read a book written by a guy who has interviewed many bear attack victims......According to him, attacks are rare, but that is no consolation if you are the victim. The majority of the attacks he documents involve Grizzlies. But some were...

    Hunting Mentors

    I'm in Northern Caleefornya.......I'd like to terminate a deer and eat it.:) I figure it may be too late to get a tag this year, but I'd be willing to just tag along on a hunt. I have read up on field dressing a deer, but I'd really like to watch someone actually do it before I attempt it. I am...

    Oven Cleaner for dirty bore?

    Last night I tried the oven cleaner......I put gloves and goggles on and sprayed it into the chamber and used a stainless steel cleaning rod to work it down the bore (it is a foam.) It said to let it soak for 15 min to clean an oven. I let it soak a couple of hours, the way my wife does for the...

    Oven Cleaner for dirty bore?

    Thanks guys....Seems the consensus has more or less confirmed what I've been able to learn about this chemical. It doesn't attack iron or copper (but apparently it does attack aluminum and emits hydrogen gas in the process- if anyone is interested)and I appreciate the warnings, I did know that...

    Oven Cleaner for dirty bore?

    Yes.....That's right........You read it correctly.........I am considering using oven cleaner to try and clean the bore of a WW1 rifle I have that I am beginning to think went all the way through that war without a cleaning!.... So far I have used Hoppe's 9(even filled bore and soaked...

    Protection from Bear?

    What they left out of the story is that this guy plays for the NFL and has been on steroids for years. The log was moving at 500 fps.:neener: I have to confess I haven't read all the thread so maybe this has already been said, but from what I have read, Bear pepper spray is said to be very...

    I told Geraldo off today!

    How does the saying go......." It's not the size of the man in the fight but the size of the fight in the man that counts." ...Something like that.....Even though Manson is a pip squeak, he is one SCARY pip squeak with the adrenaline of a rabid animal I would guess. My bet is hands down Manson...
