      Deer hunting rounds....

      I set up my m44 for season this year. Very excited to see what the 7.62x54R does, and hopefully take a few deer with it!

      Madison County Prosecutor accidentally discharges firearm in restaurant

      Did anyone read this? Rodney Cummings' story is amazing. This was just a doozie of a day for him. Exactly why I don't carry a loose pistol in my pocket. Indiana prosecutor accidentally shoots gun inside restaurant

      Bullets and whiskey

      Sadly, I doubt my Grandmother would approve or imbibe. I do not approve the mixing of good bourbon and fruit.

      Is Fitness necessary in the Defensive Lifestyle?

      My job is one of the rare ones that actually keep me in decent shape. In my mind, a defensive/sheepdog lifestyle is one that involves all aspects fitness & prep...not just using weightlifting or running to stay in shape (even though those are a great way to do it). The practicality of the...

      cast iron cookware

      I definitely agree that second hand is the best when it comes to cast iron. Re-seasoning them is not hard. I love throwing mine on the grill too, especially for fish.

      Bullets and whiskey

      Gold nugget whiskey stones...now that's an idea. Someone get to it. Chop chop!

      Bullets and whiskey

      I have a set of whiskey stones, but they don't do their job to chill down the brown. They warm too quickly. I wonder if the titanium would be better? Besides, I usually pour over a couple ice cubes in the glass as well...unless it's the PAPPY!

      1911 Show-N-Tell

      I currently have a 2010 Witness 1911. Shoots like a dream. I've heard that they were modeled heavily after the CZ75. Any truth to that? This thing is a brick to carry, too. Mostly just sits at the bedside.

      Do you Inform if pulled over while carrying?

      I've had officers ask me when they saw my pink card. I reply with the honest answer... most are seriously grateful and don't say much about it, other than to keep the hands at 10 & 2.

      Natural/Earthen Pond Care & Maintenance

      Recently purchased a home with a 1/4 acre pond, which is supposedly fed by two artesian wells. I have no idea if both wells still lead into the pond, and the previous home owner has really let it go. A lot of overgrowth and little to no fish due to the lack of oxygen levels in the water. Any...

      Indiana Highest Rate of Carry in the USA!

      I only started carrying concealed consistently this year...I'd say 75-80% of the time, when I'm not working in someone else's home (the place when I might need it the most). I kick myself every time I forget to wear my EDC. It's no good to me or my family if I don't have it! :chuck:
