First off I agree. I was on a deer lease for years and while I loved the (tiny) tenderloins the backstrap was always so-so. A few years back we discovered cold smoking the backstrap and it was a game changer. That and as said here, do no overcook! It’s easy to do with such a lean meat. I wish...

Some amazing guns in this thread. I’m a newbie Africa hunter, I’ve done two hunts the last two years and my third coming up later this year where I’ll pursue my first DG, Buffalo of course. I thought when I got my Ruger RSM 375 H&H with a Leupold VX6 2-12 Firedot that I was set for Buffalo. And...

LOL, guess I’m not the only one who’s run out of room in the gun safe.

As has been said, I honestly enjoy every one. If I have to pick the favs, one is easy because I spend the most time shooting it due to the sport, Sporting Clays. That’d be my 12 ga. Beretta Silver Pigeon. Next, and this was said early in the thread, it’d have to be my newest gun, an AR-15 556...

I was referencing the recent comments by the head of the FDA. Doesn’t matter, I already felt mandating a too little tested new technology to a group that was not at risk violated the first do no harm credo. My main point was primarily the asinine mandate, especially for kids. So you appear to...

Did you hear the number of kids killed by the vaccine released recently? For most, the argument was never that it might not be good for those most at risk to take the vaccine, same as the founder of mRNA stated, it was that it was rushed and mandated for all and all the repercussions from that...

Received! Great seller, everything as advertised.

I’m having the hide go into two safari chairs (black leather and seat backs will have the zebra on it) that will make a sitting area (to have that bourbon @Field28) in my office with several pieces of my Africa taxidermy. And if enough hide left will also do a gun case.

That is concerning as I just booked a return from JNB to FRA to IAH on Lufthansa, anyone else have experience through Frankfurt with firearms? Edit to add, at least it’s the return! United through Newark o the way there.

Talking investments, cows and AI, what a beautiful world. On AI, there is LOTS of value there but also agree the over investment is crazy. It’s basically the internet all over again, or pick your major technology leap (PC’s, wireless, …). The infrastructure is being built and there will be...

Now THIS is saying something, I’m sure that given what you do you have more interactions with customer service than I would in 20 lifetimes. That said, mine was Customer service with Sleep Number bed. I decided to upgrade my bed to one that had cooling and they had a 90 day sleep guarantee so...

Thanks Mark, ordered mine LOL. I’d even heard about this deal from @Houston Bill and at the time thought I didn’t ‘need’ one. Then I read this thread and decided I couldn’t pass up such a great deal! Whoever said this site is a bunch of enablers wasn’t wrong!

Agree! I got both their ammo belt and a gun sling, beautiful and quality work! And when my daughter’s lab chewed the sling they were able to make it look as good as new again.

Another AH subject and debate that doesn’t disappoint! Great site. I’m glad so many know why ducks flare or don’t come in, I need to hunt with them. One of the great things about duck hunting is you have to do everything right, decoy spread, blind, cover, call, no movement, etc to have ducks...

Maybe it depends on where you’re going but I’ve had no issues traveling with firearms. Get your form 4457 and hire an importer to help you get it in. That’s it, and a little extra time at the airport when checking in and when arriving to get em in country. As said above, the pros for me easily...
