    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    This is good advice, tough to follow in practice, but really what you should do to transition. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Suppressor wait times

    Here's a quick rundown of some of the ATF process changes. Hopefully they are right and Trust processing times start coming down as well. I have a TBAC Ultra 5 and a Dead Air Mask 22 that were certified a little over a month apart. Hopefully I get a batch approval on them. They are on a...

    Exo Mountain K4?

    That's a gatekeeper of some sort, not sure the exact name. I'd reach out to Exo and I'm sure they will send you some for a reasonable price. I've done that with extra buckles, etc. with them before and they've always been super accommodating. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Vivo forest tracker esc durability

    The Primus FG's have been my go to trail running shoes for the last 5 years. They have been great for me. I use the same size as I wear in the Forest Escapes. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Anybody go on multi-day hunts in the backcountry without a stove?

    You mention comparing foods to Mountain House meals. I think it's worth pointing out that there are much better options than Mountain House these days. Just as an example looking at calories alone and trying to compare apples to apples: Mountain House Biscuits and Gravy- 560 calories per pouch...

    Review: Warbonnet Ground Tarp (SPOILER: It’s awesome)

    I don't have any experience with their ground tarp but I have 3 different Warbonnet tarps for hammocks and they are all great. Well built and at a reasonable price comparatively. I wouldn't hesitate to use my Warbonnet Superfly tarp in a very similar setup to the ground tarp if I had to, but I...

    Grid fleece comparison

    How are the thumbhole loops on that? I like that feature on my base layer and mid layer but some of them are done so poorly that they aren't worth using. I see it's on sale right now and I'm tempted to give it a try. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Merino baselayer hoodie, 1/4-1/2 zip, no pocket?

    I think I've used a chest pocket maybe twice on a mid layer, but never on a base layer. I wouldn't miss it a bit if they didn't exist. At least for me, I don't mind it being there, I just don't use it. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Merino baselayer hoodie, 1/4-1/2 zip, no pocket?

    Minus33 makes a lightweight one with 1/4 zip that I like, but it does have a chest pocket. They make really soft merino products. I also have an old Ibex hoodie that's been good, I don't know if it's the same model as what they are selling now as I think they went through a rebrand several...

    What do you want from your woman?

    For our 15th anniversary my wife wrote me a note with 15 reasons why she loves me. Some of them were dumb little things, some were more noteworthy. I'm sure she got me something to go along with the note, but the note is all I remember. It's the best gift she's ever given me. It came from the...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I picked up a bunch of PR at around $9 sometime last year, but I sold off after it went above $13. Looks like I should have held on longer but I can't complain, I still made a decent little profit on it. I came to this thread a little late in the game but I've enjoyed following along and it's...

    It doesn't seem to be a problem for me in my old AGC harness. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Wiser Precision BA-7 Sparrow bino adapter.

    I've been using the Outdoorsman adapter on my Binos for years and love it. I recently picked up a pair of Meopta 15x56's and discovered that, even though I have an Outdoorsman stud installed, I can't use it with them. I have a narrow interpupilar distance and the width of the Binos Stud won't...

    Book recommendations

    I've enjoyed this thread and have found some great reads through it. I finished "The Long Walk" by Slavomir Rawicz recently and really enjoyed that one. An absolutely incredible journey. I'm about halfway through "Alaska's Wolf Man" and have really been enjoying that one as well. Both of...

    Suppressor wait times

    I just jumped in again, I like seeing the quick turnaround on some of these lately but I know with my luck I need to count on at least 10 months. We'll see how it goes. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    RokStok

    I got to see the RokStok in person at the Expo today. I like the looks of the stock in person better than what I've seen in photos. Not that looks are the reason to consider this stock, but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. I'm not quite ready for my next rifle, but hopefully...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I'm kicking myself for not picking up more last May. I only picked up a few shares but I got in at $9.40. As is usually the case when I select specific stocks, I either regret not investing more or regret investing so much. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Anybody go on multi-day hunts in the backcountry without a stove?

    Just use the "crotch pot" to get a warm meal. I've never used this and don't have any desire to do so, but I suppose it's an option. Everyone is different and some guys don't really care about their meals. Food is fuel, nothing more. If you are one of those guys I would think you could...

    What are people using in the ways of head lamps for backpack hunting?

    I always find it interesting how many people stick with black diamond because of the "lock out" feature. Everyone should use what they prefer but in this thread alone someone talked about how the lockout failed them. Then someone else mentioned the newer ones have a better lockout that is...
