    Questions for the custom Glock guys

    I'm not a Glock guy due to the grip and trigger reach. However, I handled my neighbors Shadow Systems with a 1911 style backstrap in it, and that felt really good. The Shadow Systems frame is stupid expensive. Are the Lone Wolfs or any of the other aftermarket frames more similar in size and...

    SG hip belt with 2 straps vs the old 1 strap

    I'm running an old Krux frame with the single 2" webbing hip belt. Is the newer style with the two 1" webbings considerably better for those that used both? I've found late season with an extra layer and puffy that there just isn't enough of the hip belt strap left for me to pull on. Spoke...

    Ever find cactus needles in meat?

    I was just cutting some meat and found half dozen or so cactus needles in a piece. Now I'm paranoid. I obviously threw that chunk away but am concerned there may be more that I didn't see. We took quarters off directly into game bags and then layed them on the ground. Obviously one of them got...

    Tikka mountain tactical bottom metal

    I've got the mountain tactical bottom metal on my 7mm RM. Anyone else have one of these that makes like 2 half clicks when you put the magazine in rather than 1 solid click?? It does this with 3 factory mags. The magazine release is like a hair trigger - touch it twice and the mag drops. Makes...

    guidance on recurve draw weight

    I had a bunch of money tied up in an Amazon return credit. So, I impulsively ordered a TopArchery 60" takedown in 40lb draw weight as I've been thinking of trying a recurve for awhile. On my compounds I shoot a 27" draw. This recurve just "feels" like I'm not really pulling much weight? Is that...

    Looking for a light 20ga O/U

    Looking to pick up a new 20ga and am leaning towards a Franchi Instinct SL to use for early season pheasant and grouse. Wanting something light as there is a lot more walking than shooting now days with the low pheasant numbers in my area. I have a Maxus 12ga to use late season but is there...

    Photographers - What are you using for long term photo backup?

    I recently had a new Seagate drive fall 4" and it flat out died. Luckily, I had the originals on the PC and a second drive. But now I'm questioning the best route to go for long term photo backup. HDD vs SSD vs DVD/Blu-Ray vs Cloud. There's serious pros and cons to all of them and I'm...

    My dog has crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

    We got up on Friday morning and our boy Kodah was having a hard time. He had his head up, but was unresponsive to his favorite things and the life was just gone from his eyes. He wouldn't wag his tail and for the first time in his life refused treats. It seemed obvious it was "time". He had just...

    Looking for a tent for the family

    I'm looking for suggestions on a tent for the family to use while car camping on the MN north shore. It'll be for the wife, 4 year old daughter, and myself. The last time I was there was in June and it dipped into the 20's at night and we had wind, rain, sleet, and an finally an inch of snow...

    what heavy bullet for Tikka .223?

    I'm curious what bullets have been found to work in a factory length mag. Is there anything heavy I can load and use in the factory magazine for coyote? I've been shooting the 75 ELD-M but single loading sucks and I'm over it. Do the heavier TMK/SMK work in a factory length mag, or do I need...

    what bone is this?

    I'm assuming this is from a cow, but what exactly is this bone? I found one like this while walking a river the other day and didn't think anything of it at the time. The one I found was completely rounded off on the left side - looked really old. Probably about 15" long. This is the only...

    Whitetail trailcam picture

    Friend of mine got this guy on his camera the other day. We see deer with antlers show up like this every few years, but I don't know if I've seen one with a body like this. Unfortunately, the bucks like this seem to be completely nocturnal, and they don't slip up.

    Wyoming Type 6 questions (special archery)

    I'm not sure I'm understanding this special archery season correctly. It looks like if we drew a type 6, we could buy the special archery license for an additional $72 to hunt the early archery season? Would doing the special archery be a more enjoyable or possibly higher success rate hunt...

    What's it worth? 2002 7.3 powerstroke with 3k (hit by tornado)

    So, my dad has this truck. It was his "spare" for his primary work truck. He had it in storage and was literally hit by a tornado. He's done working so he's thinking now may be the time to sell it, but has no idea what it's worth and neither do I with the current market conditions. It's a...

    Sold Tikka T3 tactical stock with adjustable cheek piece

    I recently bought a barrel and stock on Ebay - I only wanted the barrel. The stock is from an original T3 Tactical and has standard bottom metal, NOT CTR metal. This is T3, NOT T3x, so it does not have the interchangeable grip. Overall, the stock is in very good shape with only minor scuffs...

    Jalapeño Popper Burger

    I made these last night and decided to share as they turned out fantastic. Definitely one of the best things I've made with wild-game burger and will be making them again - and probably often. Prep time was all of about 10 minutes and super easy. 1lb of venison burger - I grind mine with 20%...
