I have family that lives north of Texarkana. Familiar with that area, but I know absolutely nothing about the NW corner

Yeah, I don't like I'm going to let the little speed demon kiddo drive in Arkansas

Yes. Yes you can. I’ve done it. It’s HIDEOUS.

I read something about it the other day. I don’t really understand what Beretta’s intentions are. The article I read said Beretta wasn’t happy with how the company has been run. Said it was underperforming. Why should Beretta care? I read some speculation that Beretta wants to get ahold of the Cast...

I love my .45ACP wheelguns. And I'm on the opposite From Bigslug- I'd rather do moonclips than Autorim rounds. AAMOF, I think I have half of my first and only box of .45Autorim still around somewhere. The whole allure of the .45ACP revolver is having "packetized" ammo.

My brother has the single shot version of that rifle. It is amazingly accurate gun, and was his go-to rifle when Jihad was declared against the squirrel attic invaders. It handles those Aguilla "SSS" heavy .22LR rounds like a champ and would quietly dispatch the tree-rats like no body's bu...

That is pretty cool. You used to see the bolt action shotguns all over the place, but I cant think of a time I've seen one for sale (in a shop) for the last few years.

Thats really cool

I change carry guns all the time. I know that is not the "accepted doctrine" of CCW, but yeah... when it gets cold, I look forward to carrying some of the "big guns".

may have to carry the 4" .44Mag redhawk this weekend.

looks like the models have most of the bad stuff going north of us in Central TX, but it looks like there are some areas that are going to get absolutely hammered by ice as snow. We are prepped with the generator, good stockpile of food, camping gear for cooking, propane, books, remote controlled ca...

Thermal scope/ rifle/ tripod hunting setup.

That's pretty much it

Denying China a major source of oil AND a possible base that is just a speedboat ride away from the US right while China is doing major saber rattling around Taiwan- who we have treaty obligations to protect- was not a bad strategic move.

They can’t all be big ones. Finishing out my bonus antlerless tag in the “alternative methods” season. Muzzle loaders or handguns only. I don’t make the stupid ass rules on what constitutes a handgun, so AR pistols meet the requirement. Which is the reason I built my .300. 100-ish yards, 130 grain ...

Which description, the Mauser? The stock seller on eBay sends what's on the picture. At least that has been my experience with them. the Mauser. The description is: These Mauser rifles were originally issued to front-line military units during active service. Following their primary deployment, man...

I also have a couple of BCA uppers, and absolutely ZERO complaints. There is a lot of hate spewed toward them online, but in my experience and in the experience of people I trust (and Chris), they are good to go.

I really like that. Seems handy as hell.

I'm going to be doing this on the smoker tomorrow:

I heard some people here in central TX were able to catch them on camera, but it was invisible to the naked eye. I could not catch anything on camera

Cute pup! congrats!

I tested the harness and new deer hoist I built. We good.

Ha!

That is not bad for that gun, with rounds not tailored to it. I'm impressed!

Waiting for the pics of the dead Axis.

To answer the OP- I would probably go for the Ruger right now. Nothing wrong with the S&W, and my brother has a 6" 610 that I love shooting... just I'm kinda on a Ruger kick these days.

I had a mind for auto cartridges in wheel guns for a bit. Until I experienced the velocity loss from the cylinder gap. Soured me to doing so. How much velocity loss were you getting? I have heard that its only 50fps or so. By the way- this video was just posted yesterday exploring the difference on...

I'm going to have to get my YouTube certification on how to clean a turkey.

Congrats!
