WASR.

I'd probably trade something a bit more "practical" for one of those. I have a Carcano I'd consider useless. A box of ammo is worth more than the rifle, and you could throw it more accurately than you could shoot it. Shoot a mag full from it, and you'd agree that theres no way Kennedy was killed with one.

Deja Vu all over again.

Me too. You never know who will get arrested or assume room temperature between now and election day. I remember people in one state a few years back whining because they early voted, only to find that their candidate died before election day.

It is complicated, and changes each year. If you have specific questions, those of us who have followed it for decades will be happy to get you up to speed.

I took my oldest son this morning. We saw nothing but rain showers and howling wind. I took my youngest this afternoon. He wasn't patient enough. We jumped several on the way back to the truck, but he didn't get a shot. The wind is still at gale force. Supposed to be worse tomorrow. I do not know how to hunt in wind.

I hope the baby didn't get the gene from him that causes him to be an a$$hole.

The two at the bottom are 101 Savages. If you aren't familiar with them, although they appear to be a revolver, the cylinder is fake, and they are actually a single shot 22LR. I don't see any real utility to a single shot 22 handgun other than the cute factor.

I wonder how Obama's daughters enjoyed the ad.

If I thought my dog would ever harm anyone, I'd shoot it myself. I do not intend to own a dangerous animal, and believe it is poor judgement for anyone else to own one.

Update: I finally caught the owner at home. Had a good talk with him. He seemed surprised his dog would attempt to bite anyone. I thanked him for tying his dog, and we parted on good, neighborly terms. As for all the other garbage overtaking this thread, I'd say those of you who wouldn't put a suffering stray dog out of it's misery are more cruel than those that would. If Macon county has an SPCA, I'm not aware of it. Here, we still take care of matters ourselves rather than relying on the government. That's the way the entire country used to be. Thanks to those of you who offered suggestions and advice. I am pleased I didn't have to shoot the guy's dog. However, I will lose no sleep over it if I need to in the future, as he has been informed of the problem. I don't feel like it will come to that, as he still has it tied.

I think Barney Frank would get the nod for most disgusting.

If it hasn't changed since I took the class, you could repeatedly throw your handgun at the target and score a passing grade. Don't sweat it.

Dang! That doesn't look bad at all. I expected one that looked like it had been drug home behind a truck.

According to the laws of physics, all other things being equal, the lighter the rifle, the greater the recoil. Since you stated you aren't needing a long range rifle, I'd suggest a Marlin 1894 in 44 mag. Were you wanting a longer range gun, I'd suggest a model 7 Remington in 243 Rem or 260 Rem. I will tell you that recoil isn't as bad in most deer rifles as some would lead you to believe. Don't shoot too much from a bench and you'll be fine. In fact, I'll promise you that you'll never feel ANY recoil while shooting at large game.

I can tolerate Debbie Wasserman Schultz a bit better than Andrea Mitchell. I want to strangle here every time her mouth opens. To answer your question, Al Gore tops my list of despised politicians.

An old man I used to fish with would put several minnows on a hook, lay it on the ground, and stomp them until their intestines began to hang out. Sounds gross, but that old man sure caught a lot of catfish!

They ain't biting!

Remington Core Locts, Hornady Interlocs, Speer Hot Cores, and many others will make excellent deer bullets as well. No need to spend the extra $ on premium bullets for deer sized game.

Nope! You won't beat that!

For deer, they are top shelf.

When I was a child, I saw a dog knock another boy down, grab him by the scruff of the neck, and commence hunching on his rear end. Every time the boy tried to get up, the dog would growl and tighten his grip on the boy's neck. After it was over, he swore to kill any of us who told the story. My story doesn'[t hold a candle to yours, but had a much happier ending.

I have a Summit Goliath, and it is an A+ treestand in all catergories. Easy to use, sturdy, lightweight, and comfortable. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

Nice pic of a redtail hawk. He doesn't look quite mature to me either. Mature retails have been known to carry off adult chickens.

Something wrong with a 38?
