    Tree stand security

    Alternatively, you could paint it flourescent pink.

    Shining up wooden stocks.

    I don't know about waterproof but I use Orange Glo to cover up nicks and dings and give wood stocks a bit of a "glo". :D

    Tell Us Why It’s Ethical to Eat Meat

    I know of a couple MMA fighters who are vegetarians. They look pretty darn health to me. With that said, I'm a full-on carnivore myself. The question is interesting, though. I'll have to give it some thought.

    Gotta Love those Kansas Gun Shows!

    Reminds me of a ZZ Top concert that I once attended. Similar scenario except that the woman appeared to be closer to 90 and was attired in a string bikini with a keychain hanging off one side of the bottom and a pack of cigarettes and a lighter tucked into the other side. What has been seen...

    CCW: Walther PPS? (.40)

    As a PPS owner, I would say they are just a bit large to be a comfortable pocket carry gun. That's coming from a guy with who's 5' 10", 170 lbs and a fairly athletic build. The PPS is well-suited for IWB carry in my opinion. I'm not terribly recoil-sensitive so .40 caliber polymer-frame...

    Today's New Pocket Knives

    State and local laws vary widely as related to auto-opening or "switchblade" knives. This is one of the reasons that you will have a hard time purchasing such a knife unless you are in the military or a LEO. Depending on your state and local laws, you may be able to find auto-opening knives...

    Attacked by my student

    I'm probably not going to add a whole lot to this discussion, but I'll reiterate a couple points and disagree with another: 1. Don't touch the students, period. 2. Don't awaken someone by shaking them or nudging them. As mentioned, they make wake up in fight/flight mode and decide...

    Springfield XD 45

    I have a 5" Tactical version and have had a few problems with certain rounds - typically those with a longer OAL or a semi-wadcutter design - failing to go into battery. I've read of several others who've run into the same thing. As a service pistol, I believe the chamber is designed for...

    Anyone use those shotguns with no butt-stock?

    Quite obviously, you need one in each hand to be truly effective. :D

    What do I need for my first Appleseed?

    My only comment about the coffe or soda (pop) is to take into consideration the potential effects of caffeine deprivation if you are used to a certain amount of caffeine each morning. The effects of caffeine deprivation can be as detrimental to good shooting as the effects of too much caffeine...

    Anyone use those shotguns with no butt-stock?

    Has anyone involved in this discussion had training in the CAR High Position and fired a PGO shotgun from that position? I have not. I've had training and fired a traditional stock shotgun from that position and I would guess that while it would be nice not to have to tuck the stock under your...

    Top Shot - Season 3

    My money's on PTSD as the excuse.

    Anyone use those shotguns with no butt-stock?

    But prior to deployment you would have greater maneuverability, right? I'm not speaking from experience ... merely theorizing. No need to tuck the stock under your armpit for the CAR High Position. In fact, if you are a fan of the CAR High Position, popularized by Paul Castle, the stock...

    Anyone use those shotguns with no butt-stock?

    I'm not emotionally invested in the PGO/non-PGO debate. I try to avoid emotions, in general; and specifically where inanimate objects are concerned. With that said, I can see some positives for the manueverability of a PGO shotgun in tight quarters. They generally weigh a bit less than...

    The 1 Rifle, 1 Handgun Experiment. Ever try it?

    I sort of did it ... but I went down to one rifle, one pistol and one shotgun (as I'm an Upland Game Bird hunter). Marlin 39A Golden Beretta 92FS Winchester 1200 I have no plans to do it again. :D

    sighting in 30-06

    X2 My .30-06 is sighted 2.5" high at 100 yards. I shot a Whitetail buck at about 50 yards last year. Blew up his heart. He walked about ten steps and dropped like a rock.

    Top Shot - Season 3

    Really? Dustin Ellerman No mentione of any "active ... competitive shooting". Dustin validated this in an interview with the Lufkin Daily News. Despite not actively participating in competitive shooting, Dustin may just be the single-best all-around marksman from all three seasons...

    Poor Footwear Choices

    Like a few others, I have a GHB in my vehicle with more suitable clothing for walking. (I'm in a suit and tie at work.) For casual wear, I like what I believe are called "amphibious" shoes in the heat of the summer. Something like this ...
