On the first day of the season this year we made up a points system to determine which one of us had the most successful season. 6 points for a goose, 5 pts for a drake mallard, 4 for a hen, 3 for a pinner, 2 for a widgeon and 1 for anything else. After the final hunt, my buddys presented me...

I usually leave the calling to my buddy. I am still new to the sport and could never call the ducks in. I went hunting alone today so I could do some calling. Right at shooting time I start calling just to warm up. Ten minutes later, I let out a little greeting call and two mallards fell out of...

My buddy and I got off of a 10 hour shift at 3am. We were tired but a few hours later we found ourselves a hunting spot. We loaded our guns (Remington 870 and a Benelli Nova) 2 min. before shooting time like we always do. About 3 min later I spotted a bird screaming out of the fog at about 40...

I am a Commercial glazier and just got back to work after being laid off for almost 2 months. I worked the night shift tonight at a building in Seattle. One of the foreman for the general contractor told me that the reason "John Doe" was not there is because the police shot him NINE times. My...

So, I have this 92 year old grandmother. Both of her husbands and 2 of her brothers were all in the service. 3 of them were on the beaches at Normandy. She has had her house for about 50 years so tons of stuff has just piled up in odd places like in her basement (I have found books from as early...

I have been wanting to get a very high grit waterstone for a long time now and decided that today was the day to order one. There are too many different kinds and grits and companies. Any advice on what stone to get would be appreciated. I am looking to spend under $50. My 92 year old...

So my wife is due to have our first kid on Dec. 30. I have been thinking for the last year or so that it would be awesome to give my first child a rifle on the day he/she is born. I was going to get a simple single shot .22lr (the "cricket"). However, I am having second thoughts. The...

So I wanted a .22 for some cheap plinking and I came home with a Henry Arms lever action .22 (http://www.henryrepeating.com/h001_leveraction.cfm). I bought it cause it was cheap and I did not have a lot to spend. I have a cheap Bushnell 4X32 scope on it. I am very new to rifle shooting but I...

I am going on a hike to Royal Lakes by Sequim, WA. in a couple weeks and I am just trying to make sure it is legal to carry. I looked through the "credit card act of 2009" but it is confusing. It does worry me about what else could be thrown in the middle of some random bill.....:uhoh:. Anyway...

I am not really a rifle guy but I am learning. I recently got a .22lr with a scope for some cheap plinking and practice and a Remington 700SPS in 7mm Rem. Mag. with a Leupold 4-12X40MM for hunting. I am getting pretty good with the .22 but the 7mm is a lot of gun for me. I was trying to sight it...

I got my .38 about 3 years ago and it probably has 600-800 rounds through it. I took it too the range and I had to push the ejector rod much harder to get the empty brass out. It seemed to be worse when the gun was a little hot. Also, I found that if I pushed them out just a little and then...

I was in spokane this morning and just got on the plane!!! Okay here is the real story. After 6 years of school to become a missionary pilot, my buddy finally graduated. I got a chance to go flying with my 2 best friends from high school. I realized about half way through that i was flying...

I have been trying to get my wife shooting for a while now and she does come to my favorite shooting spot with me out in the Olympic National Forest sometimes. She wants her own gun but has pretty much decided that it has to be pink. I can make any gun pink with Duracoat so selection is...

I was shooting a few weeks back out in the woods and noticed a chunk of mostly rotten wood with bullet holes in it. After breaking it apart a little, I found a couple hollow points all mushroomed out. Last week I was messing around and tried to do the same with some older gold dots I had laying...

I take my Airweight everywhere and have done so for quite a while now. So, needless to say it is a little beat up. I would really like to make it shine again but am unsure how to. There seems to be some sort of coating on it that has been worn through in some spots (check the pic). Is there a...

Alright, so this is a dumb question. Is it alright to have ammo in my shotgun case while I am driving or does it have to be locked up seperatly? What if the shotgun is out in the open? Thanks.

So more often than not I end up throwing my J-frame in my pants using a Clipdraw when I go out because it is easy and comfortable. I tighten my belt up and it sits pretty secure. Since I want to make sure my "special purpose" stays intact I take the next round which would be fired if I pulled...

So I just went and got some 00 buck Magnum buckshot loads. My buddy said you cant put magnum loads through some shotguns so I figured I better make sure. It is a Maverick model 88 which, if you dont know, is basically just a Mossberg 500. I've got a 18.5" barrel on it. Thanks in advance...

So I decided to check out the Cabelas store in Lacey for the first time today. It was a more than I expected to say the least. I looked around for more than an hour before going to the firearms section to pick up my new pistol. I was impressed with the store up to this point but then...

This whole Mayor Nickels gun ban thing here in Seattle has really been ticking me off. I have started to put together a page which will hopefully have TONS of stats and legal info about gun control. I am doing this to have something to show to the all the anti firearms people and people who have...
