On the Outdoor Channel there is a show called Impossible shots and a guy on there named Bob Munden shot a NAA mini revolver and hit a balloon at 200 yards offhand. He said just because they're small don't mean they won't shoot.

A Lorcin L380 was probably the worst. It shot ok but wouldn't good sometimes and was built CHEAP. I gave $70 for it and sold it for that.

Saw a good'un last night when me and the wife was coming home from Cookeville. Looked like it had a good rack. Maybe 8 point. That was in Jackson Co. I've not seen anything around here interesting. When I get to go squirrel hunting I'll probably see something interesting.

Where did you get the Finnish 39?

Nice man, the PPsh-41 is welcome here too. I need to take a group pic of mine too.

Like everybody else said. Just relax and try to hit your mark with the first shot and practice reloading quick and you'll be fine.

I hear you brother. I kinda feel the same way. I can't wait myself. I don't bowhunt and its gonna be early Nov. for muzzleloader to open. I never took up bow hunting because its usually so hot.

Yeah big racks that score really good are very valuable. Most all hunters that have killed high scoring B&C bucks have sold them for big bucks. Maybe mine will come someday. My best so far is 129 4/8 points. A midget compared to most.

Looks like you might have some Boone & Crocket chickens there.

Most of the Lee-Enfield rifles are a little more common. It just bothers me when I see something like that Johnson '41 I was talking about. The Johnson 1941 is like the Holy Grail for Mil-Surps.

Well I sporterized a Turk 38 Mauser a few years ago but it was pretty rough when I got it. It would 've been hard to restore back. As far as taking something rare and sportering it. It irks me when I see a Garand or something else in that price range sportered. I saw a Johnson 1941 sportered on a website once. Probably done when they were more of them. There was only about 20,000 made..........

Uh, wow is right Memphismason. He's pretty awesome.

KahrMan, thats a nice knife. I prefer a folding knife. I actually use a scabbord, fixed position knife. Its a Shrade with a gut hook. Not a bad knife for $25. I've field dressed about 6 deer with it and have never sharpened it. Its got the original factory sharpening.

It shouldn't be long till the velvet starts gettin' rubbed off. I need to get a trail camera whenever my funds are better. Everybody at Cummins where I worked last Fall asked if I'd ever seen the buck I got last November. I just said no. Thats the first time I saw him. Apparently I was the only one who didn't have a camera.

I think Savage or Stevens is your best bet. The 770 and ATR 100 are a little cheap made . I've got a ATR and its a good shooter and handles good. But its a little cheap in some areas. I don't like the follower and follower spring and the extractor is a little fragile too.

STEVENS!!!!!!!!!!!! And I've got a ATR 100.

$17 for 50 is a good deal. I figured it would be way more.

WD40, you got some good bucks. Looks like maybe 3-3 1\2 yr olds. Most bucks start to look good at that age. I let a buck about that age walk last year. 8 point with about 16" spread. He had good mass and some long tines. Maybe this year he'll be nice.

I know some guys that have got good deals on guns at pawn shops but I've never. But I still like to look though. I mostly get good deals on DVD movies at Pawn shops.

WD40, did you get another pic of him showing his whole rack? I've got to get a trail cam.

Robtattoo, sounds like a good camera. I've put off getting a camera for a long time because the ones I've always wanted are sky high. I mean if you bought a expensive one theres always the chance that some ahole is gonna steal it. I'm gonna look into this camera. P.S. I remember Gene and Barry Wensel. I used to watch their videos all the time.

Alright. I knew McArthur had something to do with it. Thanks.

I use to keep my .223 busy hunting groundhogs. I don't even see very many anymore. The coyotes are hard on a lot of game.

Because the 30-06 was already in use and proven and Douglas McArthur wanted no smaller caliber change. So that was that. I guess he'd really love the 5.56, huh. Anyway thats the story I heard anyway.

Thanks Ftncityfatboy. I knew I should've said WILL. I taught a friend of mine years ago and he's still addicted.
