I should have figured that out.

That seems to be a good price and turnaround. Most places now a days are 300-500 for a shoulder mount.

Nothing in blue book under Carsen Arms.

Thats the reason the instructions gave for doing it a section at a time. You are able to control the length of the chemical reaction better for more even results because the length of the reaction determines the color. I did the .22 in 3 or 4 sections.

Go see Joe at Hermitage Archery. I believe he is the only dedicated bow shop left in Nashville. He is at 4319 Central Pike. He has a fully stocked shop and range behind his house.

I used that set you are talking about. I reblued an old rusty mossberg .22 rifle for a friend. A little messy but worked ok. Started out by cleaning off all the rust. Then you use the blue remover which strips the clean. After the barrel is clean you start the blueing. The blueing agent causes a chemical reaction with the metal to get the color blue. You rub it on a small section and let it sit for a minute or so then pour cold water over it. You have to pour water over it to stop the chemical reaction. I used a very fine steel wool, i believe it was 0000, to spread the blueing on. It helps blend the blue between sections to make it look continuous. Overall the blueing looked pretty consistent. There was a spot on the receiver that had a lot of wear. I never could get the blue to look right on that spot. I took a couple of days for the blue to "set". After that she was good to go.

Just had some great bar-b-que for lunch. Went to a place called Martin's in Nolensville, Tn. Great little place to eat. Had the redneck taco. Thats a piece of fried cornbread topped with barbque and slaw. Nice order of fries on the side. They have a couple of sauces. i like their vinegar based sauce but their tomato/molasses based sauce is good also. So what are some of your favorite hole in the wall bbq joints?

Hi, my name is Kahrman and I am a deer-gun-aholic. Here is a list of deer guns that I used to have until I sold them to a guy down on Dickerson Road. TC Encore .243 Tikka T3 .270 Winchester 70 7mm mag Sako .30-06 Weatherby Vanguard .300 wthby mag Weatherby MKV .340 wthby mag Ruger African .375 ruger Marlin 1895 .45-70

That is funny. I can just imagine the people that try to stop him.

Nice. I love my 638.

I used P.C. Taxidermy. I have mixed feelings about recommending them. The guy that owns it is Eric Mattar. He is a super nice guy and does great work. The problem is that he, in my opinion, doesn't run his business very good. It took me 2 years to get my bobcat. The problem is he is in demand and doesn't say no to new business walking in the door. When I went to him he was a one man shop. If he has added some employees, turnaround might not be an issue now. as of 2 years ago: Eric Mattar P.C. Taxidermy 320 Tyne Court Old Hickory, TN 37138 615-758-7162

Here he is mounted...

Thanks. I have it mounted laying on a branch. I will try to get a pic of it tonight and post it. He was decent size for this part of the country. He was 29lbs and 33" inches from his nose to his butt.

Here are a couple...

Back when I worked at Tractor Supply Company, I can't tell you how many farmers would come in and buy a bag of dog food and a gallon of anti-freeze.

Great vid. Thanks for sharing.

If your friend still has it put some pics of it up. Would be cool to see it. Love the big bore double rifles.

Talk about adding insult to injury...

Naw, I jumped out of a tree and showed him a picture of Chuck Norris and he died of fright. I was deer hunting at the time so I shot him with a .30-06 Little bit of overkill but that is all I had with me.

Very cool. I have an AR-50. They are a blast to shoot.

Yes. A bobcats "scream" is a little higher pitched than a cougar but is very similar. It is usually compared to a babies scream instead of an adults. As much as cougars move around, it wouldn't surprise me if it was one. By the time this bobcat saw me, he didn't have time to scream.

I am ready to go. Looks like it is going to be a nice morning, mid to upper thirties in my part of Tn. I need some fresh meat for the freezer so unless it is just a monster I am hoping for a nice fat doe.

Did you know that Rosie went to Central University of Northern Texas....

BLASPHEMY!!! May the fleas of 1000 camels infest your armpits!

You can hunt in Davidson county. There are some big deer taken every year in Davidson. You just have to follow the twra rules. The biggest one is that you have to be 100 yards aways from a residence(not your own) to shoot a firearm.
