    Hot New Woods Defense Pistol

    Have a Glock 20, fnx 45 tactical, and 500 Smith and Wesson. I'd like to get a new semi auto woods defense gun for various good reasons, which aren't pertinent to the conversation. 😁 Since the last time I shopped for a similar gun, the market seems to have expanded pretty drastically - there...

    Toddler Walking Harness

    Went for a little hike last night with our 16 month old. She wanted to walk the entire time. Lots of stumbling and slipping on the uneven terrain. Thinking a little harness would be good for her to keep her from falling. Any other good ideas? She refused to hold hands after a little while...

    Montana Side by Side Laws

    Am I understanding things correctly that you basically need a side by side to be street legal if you plan on driving it anywhere but private land in Montana? Thanks!

    Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount

    What do you all think of these hitches? They adjust in 2.5" increments, whereas other adjustables use one inch increments (I think). Do you think 2.5" adjustments are adequate for leveling the trailer out? I'm struggling to find an adjustable one that has a 1" diameter hole to attach a max...

    AR Castle Nut Wrench & Law Folder Install

    Installing a law folder on my AR. Looking for a cheap AR castle nut wrench. Lots of them show up on amazon, but I'm not sure which will work. Recommendations? My castle nut is staked. Is it a good idea to replace the metal piece that is deformed into the nut? What is the metal piece called...

    5.56 / AR Load Development

    I have an AR with a red dot on it. I'm trying to do some sort of load development for it, but it's much different than bolt guns. I can hardly tell where I'm aiming at 50 yards, trying to shoot groups with it. I guess if a red dot is my sighting system, I can't be too worried about precision...

    Rusted Over and Under

    Really bummed. Opened up an old gun case with my old over and under in it and the gun is rusty where it was touching the case. There must have been some kind of reaction with the gun case material. I oiled it up the best I could for now. I can't operate the thumb control to break the gun...

    Home Water Softener

    Not hunting related in the least, but it's kind of like sitting around the campfire with your hunting buddies - it's always good info. Need to get a water softener for the whole house. Got a quote from a professional and it's not the cheapest thing in the world. I figure they can't be that...

    Best Cheap Headlamp

    Any suggestions on an inexpensive headlamp that is good? Is rechargeable better? I want to buy three or four of them and stash them in various places, so I don't need to play the pack juggling game. Thanks!

    Velcro Backed Holster for Belly Band/Fanny Pack/Vertx

    Got my wife a belly band and Vertx Lena Miculek everyday fanny pack for a Sig 365x. Got the Crossbreed velcro backed Modular holster listed below for it as well. Not impressed with the modular holster. It's flimsy, doesn't fully grasp the gun, and the plastic coming off the trigger cover edge is...

    Suppressed 22 LR for 13 Month Old Daughter

    My daughter is only 13 months old and I've been talking about getting her first gun for about 21 months. Seeing the Christensen Ranger repiqued my interest last night. With the rising prices of everything, specifically firearms, it might not be a bad idea to get one for her now and just store...

    38 PRC?

    Anyone else think a 38 prc would be a good idea? I currently have a 300 win. Sometimes I wish I had a bit more oomph, but not as much as a 338 Lapua - something like a 338 win mag, with maybe a little more horsepower. I like that you can mag feed high BC bullets from the PRC series without...

    Mountain Bipod (Atlas vs Modular Evolution vs ?)

    I'd like to get my dad a bipod for Christmas. I have a Modular Evolution (ME) and an Atlas of my own that I bought years ago. They work well overall. I prefer the robustness of the Atlas for shooting prone and the optional extension legs on the ME for hunting. I would buy another ME, but I...

    Camper Gun Rack

    Have a camper with plywood interior walls, no insulation, and an aluminum exterior. I'd like to mount an AR to the wall and have it be easy to remove quickly. Ideas? I'd rather not pound the walls full of holes. Double sided tape, or Velcro might work? Don't absolutely need to have the gun...

    Heated Blanket

    Would like to get an electric blanket for sleeping in a roof top tent winter car camping. Any good recommendations? Would like to put it inside a sleeping bag. One that uses a small amount of electricity would be ideal. Power source suggestions and run time? Thanks!

    Sig 365x or Wilson WCP365x

    Gonna get a P365x. Is the Wilson version with the tuned action and all the bells and whistles worth nearly triple the cost? I don't mind terribly spending the extra for the Wilson, if it is worth it. It would be nice to see one in person. Anyone have an action tuned Wilson that can offer some...

    Sierra 77 Grain TMK 5.56 Load Data

    Starting to load some 77 grain tmks in 5.56 cartridges for an AR. Would anyone happen to have a picture of the reloading manual for this recipe? The Sierra ap is no longer supported on my android phone - says the app is too old. Thanks!

    2007 Chevy Silverado Won't Turn Over

    Shot and elk (see this is hunting related), parked the truck outside in the 10 degree weather with the quarters in the back overnight. A day or two later, I go to start it and it won't turn over. I figure the battery is dead. Take the old battery to walfart, they test it, they say it's fine...

    Heirloom Meat Processing Knife

    I've got a bucket of knives that I've used for years to process elk and deer meat each fall. Was thinking it would be cool to get a nice one made to use every year that could eventually be passed down to family. I'm thinking a fillet/boning knife style. Suggestions on somebody to make one...
