hahahaa...i love glocks but that was funny!

i so need to get down to Hero Gear quickly!!! nice pieces you've got there...

nice buck! congrats

for meat, i'd much rather have a doe. i've been lazy this weekend and had alot going on...i get an extended 5 day weekend coming up starting on Wednesday so i plan on getting out there some then. congrats on a nice doe...i'm sure you can already taste them backstraps!

my thoughts exactly, very bad photoshopping. i noticed the slide serrations almost immediately

and i thought i had the only production model of that one!

go with a Millett SP-1 or a Bushnell Holosight...both are well worth the money...

i have an enfield that i love, my dad gave it to me for Christmas one year. it had been sporterized before he picked it up for me, and it was my first serious deer rifle. that gun shoots good...so good its almost boring to shoot. i'll try to get a pic up of it soon, but the "purists" may not like it as it has a wood monte carlo 2 piece sporter stock on it...

i can easily conceal my G22 (same gun just in .40 cal) with a couple of different holsters. the best IWB that i've found so far is the Comp Tac CTAC...i got the slide version so i can carry my G27 or my G22 in it. i carry the G27 mostly, mainly because it is a little lighter...but the G22 rides just as well in it. if your wearing a jacket, a good paddle holster is hard to beat for OWB, but i have trouble keeping it covered without the jacket on. another option that i like is a belly band holster, i have one that is made by a local guy here in East TN and it is super nice...i can carry the G22 and a spare 15rd mag in it and it doesnt ride up or down, just sits still and stays hidden and surprisingly isnt that hard to draw from...not much harder than a shoulder holster, and you dont need a cover jacket for it...

i mostly carry a Glock 27 and/or a S&W 642 about all year long...only thing that changes for me when the weather does is sometimes i go OWB instead of IWB (or pocket with the 642). i guess i could carry my G22 OWB with a heavy jacket just as good as i could the G27, but i feel the G27 is sufficient enough...

man, you have a large nightstand for that big of gun!! seriously, i had this happen with a 629 Mountain Gun once, S&W will take care of you and make it right. is possible for the firing pin to break in any gun, not just S&W's. i've wondered if alot of dry firing is what caused mine, did you dry fire yours much?

i think you'd better double check that, i believe that in transportation of the long guns that they must still be unloaded. i know if you are hunting public lands, all weapons must be unloaded while in the motor vehicle, as it is illegal to hunt from a motor vehicle. with a loaded firearm in there, i guess they consider you "hunting"...

nice, let me know what you think about the scope...i'm wondering how the Barska's do...

that is super sweet looking light...

sweet! i love the NEF single shots...i have a few in 12ga and wouldnt take anything for them...

what type of 10ga do you have? i mainly hunt with my Mossberg 500 in 12ga, i put a Limbsaver recoil pad on it and it helped the turkey loads tremendously! i've been thinking about getting a semi-auto to hunt with...not sure if i'd like them though...afraid i'd get to trigger happy

wow a 10ga! what made you go that route? just longer distance? i've not had any problems dropping them with my 12's...but a few of my hunting buddies have gone to the 3.5" 12's and they like them. i wouldnt want to shoot a 10 all day!

i cant wait for duck season to open...i typically wont hunt anything until after the first frost (got that one out of the way last night, probably will get the second tonight!) and i cant wait to go after the ducks and geese. i'm glad you posted this, i need to dig my decoys out as well...

i really had my doubts about these CTACs before i put one on. i had about given up on IWB carry of my glocks, as nothing i tried worked for me with them. but with this CTAC i can carry a fullsized G22 IWB with very little effort to conceal it...i just love this holster. in warmer weather the G27 just disappears. i'm on the chunky side and i feel the CTACs are one of the most comfortable IWB rigs out there...

Marlin used to make a Model 25N which was a mag feed .22lr and a 25MN which was a mag feed .22mag. i have one of each. my .22lr is one of the best shooting .22's i've ever had and it aint going anywhere! my .22mag is for sale though...

here is another vote for the Comp Tac CTAC...i love my Glock 9mm/.40 slide version, i can hide a G22 very well in it and a G27 just disappears under just a t-shirt...

WOW, thats a very nice...uhh...rifle, yeah, thats a nice rifle!

+1000 on this one...that is some rough country up there. in some places rough isnt the right word for it...

i was mainly suggesting the Savage because they are so easy to switch the barrels out on... a barrel nut wrench and a set of go-no go gauges and you can do it yourself...

i think your best bet would be to go with a long action Savage and then rebarrel it to a heavy barrel .30-06 if thats what you want. most all of the tactical bolts are short actions...
