      Are guided pheasant hunts "staged"?

      Has anyone been on a guided pheasant hunt before? I was looking in to one and have the sinking feeling that most are staged. Between the reviews and YouTube videos, they look like they have pheasants confined until you get close. Then they release them giving you the opportunity to shoot them...

      +1 to Guy and Tactical Firearms Training

      Once my wife received her LTCH, I needed to get her in some training on how to put lead on target. I grew up around guns and then went to the Army Infantry so I know how to shoot, but am a poor teacher. I sent her to TFT's Basic Pistol class. Before she left, she wasn't able to hit the...

      Lego Movie - A political movie: Upfront and Obvious

      I took my kids to see the new Lego Movie tonight. Now I'm not the type to go reading in to things that don't actually exist. I'm also fiercely independent when it comes to politics but the Lego Movie isn't. I don't watch Fox News or MSNBC. I get my news as close to apolitical as humanly...

      Backpack-able Shotgun

      I'm looking for a shotgun in the 20 gauge range that can either fold in half or can be broken down when I go camping. It will largely be used for hunting small game (or bigger game if we get lucky) and defense. I had a 410 over/under that when broken open would fold over itself in half. This...

      Newbie deer hunter question for the experienced

      This is my first year deer hunting and I'm doing it on public land. I went scouting a few weeks ago and found a deer run with a fresh track in it. Since the trail seemed to headed that direction, I figured they were getting food from a deer feeder on private land a quarter of a mile away. On...

      Mental Illness Question on LTCH

      I've found threads on people debating whether or not they qualify for the mental illness question on the LTCH form. However, my question is more fundamental. I have found State Code that requires health professionals to report people who are "mentally ill and either dangerous or gravely...

      Any experience wit the Taurus 24/7 G2?

      My wife has fallen in love with the Taurus 24/7 G2 midsize. Anyone have one or experience with one? She's looking for an everyday carry. She's like the Smith and Wesson S&W500, but that's not so easily carried. I'm thinking she's over compensating for something. LOL.

      Russia and high number of homicides

      Just my rant for the day Courtesy of the politically left leaning National Public Radio, a country, Russia, with strict gun laws still has more homicides than the US. Could it possibly be that gun control isn't the answer? No, that can't be it. Most of our democrat politicians and media can't...

      This year's rut

      I'm trying out deer hunting for the first time this year. Crossbow archery in fact since it's got a much longer season than firearm. I'm planning to take a week off from work to give myself plenty of time to make mistakes, get in on the weekdays when most hunters aren't in the woods, and...

      Recommend local restoration service?

      I recently got my hands on an Colt Trooper Mark III. It is a family heirloom, but it has been neglected for many years. It has more than minor rust on it. I expect it to have some pitting that may not be able to be buffed out. So it needs serious help. However it's not so far gone that that...
