    Sold S&W 460V (5-inch revolver) with case, ammo, & leather chest holster

    Forgot to mention in this listing, I am willing to ship to your FFL, in or out of state. Yeah, being able to practice with 45 Colt is one of the best things about it, and it feels like shooting a .22 with that round. Maybe that's an exaggeration but I hardly notice the recoil with those. Can't...

    Sold S&W 460V (5-inch revolver) with case, ammo, & leather chest holster

    Sold Two Remington 870 12 gauges: marine magnum w/folding stock, express magnum

    I'm selling both my Remington 870s to fund more fishing gear. First one is a Remington 870 Express Magnum 3" with a wood stock, just a good typical bird hunting gun. $300. Second one is a Remington 870 Marine Magnum 3" with a Choate folding stock, a pistol grip, and a Magpul pump handle. The...

    WTS Pristine Ventures PR-49 Packraft

    Cashmere, WA. But I can ship it if needed, or meet somebody half-way if they're fairly close.

    Sold S&W 460V (5-inch revolver) with case, ammo, & leather chest holster

    Selling my S&W 460V revolver and accessories/ammo for $1100 total. This 5-inch hand cannon shoots actual .460 rounds that pack about the same punch as a .500, but you can also shoot .454 Casull and .45 Colt ammo for some cheaper (and easier on the hands) practice. It's one of my favorite guns...

    WTS Pristine Ventures PR-49 Packraft

    Price: $950 I’m selling my Pristine Ventures PR-49 packraft, which I purchased in-person from the designer Larry Bartlett in Fairbanks, Alaska in 2014. It carried me through some great adventures, but I just don’t have a good use for it anymore with the kinds of fishing and hunting I’m doing...

    What's your favorite part of a hunt?

    Opening day, dawn, just as first light hits the hills and things become visible through binoculars. It's showtime with nothing but possibility ahead.

    I just finally got into the waiting room too.

    Catching Big Trout

    Here are some things to try: 1. This one seems obvious, but fish rivers known to hold above-average fish. Many creeks just don't have the food or temperature regime to grow them, and those can still be great fun, but if you're aiming for size make sure you're targeting waters where it's...

    Covid Booster

    I got the Pfizer booster as soon as I was eligible, in early December. No side effects except a little arm soreness that went away within a couple days.

    Back to work Vax status

    Getting a disease is still possible with practically any vaccine. Just like others, getting vaccinated against Covid on average reduces but does not eliminate your chances of catching it in the first place (less so now with Omicron, but still a reduction), reduces the severity of the illness...

    Pfizer clinical trial data: not good at all

    You're right, there are plenty of situations where it makes sense to consider absolute risk. That's what makes this lie in the video so nefarious -- all the most effective lies take little bits of pieces of truth, leave others out, and arrange them in a way that tells a false story. In question...

    Pfizer clinical trial data: not good at all

    "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." As a scientist with a heavy statistics background, I rely on statistics all the time, but I take very seriously the obligation to use them carefully. They can be misinterpreted even by well-meaning people with moderate-to-good...
