Dang !! That is beautiful. (More than!)

Well I have been fortunate enough to make two plains games hunts in S. Africa. Three shoulder mounts and one pedestal mount in the living room. Two rugs on the floor, (zebra, wildebeest). Four euro mounts in the garage. Luv them all. Wife will not allow the the euro mounts in the house- says...

I’ve seen some recent photos of a couple of PH’s I recognize and they were wearing sidearms. They did not carry sidearms 4 years ago.

I’m proud to finally hear a U.S. President openly state he puts America First. So nice to hear him tell our NATO Allies to step and increase the agreed upon spending on their defense.

Mr. Dolan, would you please state specific actions you believe the NRA and we members should take. Also, please state what personal gun law ownership changes you believe the federal government should enact near term. Please be specific and concise as possible. (I promise to try and refrain from...

Sure Mr. Dolan, huge numbers of Brits out for a day smoothboring with their high dollar doubles, just common folks. Probably not many $300 Mossberg owners in that crowd. (Probably not many $300 Mossbergs on the shelves of the local Walmart’s in the Kingdom.) But then again, I don’t know anyone...

Yup, UK has it figured out for sure. And they are making it illegal to order a knife online to be shipped to a home address and the possession of acid in a public place.

I will be making it a point to purchase Hornady products more often. Probably mostly reloading equipment and components.

Screw yeti and dick(head) sporting goods !

Maybe They have never got out of the mentality of a feudal system, “Yes my lord, Anything you say my lord”. An unarmed citizenry is very easy to control.

Maybe a Semi-auto Savage A22 Magnum. Some ammo out there 30 gn, advertised 2200 FPS. Probably less than $400. Just a thought - -

Hunting with Tootabi Hunting Safaris in 2015, my friend put the 223 barrel on his Blazer for the last couple of days. Shot a Blesbok and a Mountain Reedbuck. I don’t remember on the Blesbok, but I examined the Mountain Reedbuck. No hide damage to it. And there were two shots through the ribs...

OK —- so put my money where my mouth is, Just ordered a Ruger 1911 9mm full size Model 6759. And ........ kept my S&W5906.

I turn 65 in September. I will be hunting. I hunt alone on public lands, so do a lot of walking. And it takes a lot of research to figure out the rules. Shot my first wild hog in January - tough drag, but made it. I plan on trying handgun hunting with my new/used Super Redhawk. And I need to buy...

Uh oh, making me second guess myself. I planned on using my 5906 as a trade for the Ruger 1911 Target at my local gun shop.

In 1988 when I bought my S&W5906 9mm, I was also looking at a Colt 1911 (of course 45acp) at the same gunshow. If I would have went with the 1911, that may have been the only handgun I ever bought since, (except for some 22 pistols). The 1911 in a 45acp is as close to a “do everything handgun”...

Glock 43. Would have got the Ruger LC9s, but already had a Glock 19 for the nightstand and thought it best to stay with same style for EDC.

I own several handguns. But never had a 1911. That has been a big mistake I plan on rectifying soon. I’m liking the new full size Ruger 1911 Target in 9mm Model 6759. Should be a little less than $800. This will be. Range gun —- not everyday carry. (I did shoot a guy’s new Kimber, yesterday ——-...

Had a euro mount on a Gemsbok - wish I would have made it a shoulder mount.

Well, we will know when that is coming,,,,,,, there will be a new tax on us to arm the “do gooders” because they won’t buy their own!

This could never happen here in the U.S. —— yet ❄️

Dick’s also announced “no sales of firearms to anyone under the age of 21”. How will that play with the ACLU ...... I think them and the courts destroyed a family bakery business for refusing to serve at a gay wedding. I think they would bake the wedding cake but refused to serve at the wedding...

The liberal antis want virtually no guns. Senator Diane Feinstein “ if I had the votes, Mr & Mrs America turn them in”. I know what they want. I don’t need my wife’s permission to buy a gun and she does not need mine. Concealed Carry in my state require a detailed background check with...

The 2nd Amendment does not mention “hunting”. As to ARs, even though I trained with one in the Army, decades ago, I never saw the attraction to own one. Then I bought one a few years ago - my most fun and favorite gun to shoot. I just bought a AR pistol and just shot a wild hog with it. I know...

Love to see four seemingly regular guys come from behind and win a Gold Medal for the US

WANT ONE

I think Barnes recommends the 168 gn for 30-06 and the 165 gn for the 300 Win Mag. Has to do with the shape of the bullet, “ogive and stuff”.

Very nice ! ! Love the termite mound pedestal and mounts, very creative. Thanks for sharing.

Didn’t they all move to Canada? (the wacky celebs, not the elephants)

Sad. Clearly these two never read any of the old Safari journals. Some of the details on how elephants kill humans are horrific and very insightful — the details of “bringing a friend’s remains back in a pail” stick in my mind. Stay Clear Of Wild Elephants!

“Individual responsibility !! ??” How outrageous. Mr. Therack, you must have been born in 17 or 1800’s.

Yup one of my ROTC Instructors shot a tiger in Vietnam. I remember he wore a Ranger Tab. I saw the tiger hide in his house, so I believe him. I remembered his name and actually just found him on the internet. Heck, I also just remembered I went to his wedding, 197x.

FOX interviewed a guy who stole a truck and loaded it up with injured to take to the hospital. He was a Marine Vet - - so I doubt cnn or nbc interviewed him.

The demos are not going to settle for just an ATF “reversal”, they want a new law. (And we know how criminals always follow the law.) Our Repub reps are going to roll on this and pass a bill. It will contains more hooks to allow the ATF to write more restrictive rules. Diane Feinstein already...

Say it again for those that did not hear you!

Diane Feinstein 199x “If I would have the 51 votes, then Mr &Mrs America turn them all in.” She said this in an interview in 20xx while talking about the assault gun ban bill in the 1990’s.

Exactly Correct ! You can not trust the legislators. Our Bill of Rights were added to the Constitution for that specific reason.

Just finished reading. Excellent read, and waiting for the series. Congrats (In your face J. Alain Smith )

Ordered the Kindle version. I'm up to Chapter six. Great read!! It will be keeping up late tonight. And gives pause for thought on many levels.

Definitely worth watching. Thanks. Did she say "Cecil the Lion was hunted illegally, that is a fact" ? I swear I've read the Hunter, the PH and the Landowner were all cleared of all charges. (???) Please note, I do not mean in any way to detract from the importance and quality of this...

OMG !!! Incredible

Dave, I have been fortunate to have taken two hunting trips to South Africa and my wife went both times. She was on the truck every day and made several stalks with me. She took over my binoculars and became secondary game spotter, and the primary photographer. She is a gun owner, but not a...

Got it.

I apologize if this is a high-jack, but this thread prompts a question about safety on bolt actions. I saw on a TV Africa hunting show hunters just raising and dropping the bolt handle as they began a stalk/closed on game, (looked odd to me). On many bolts, this cocks it. So, I asked my PH...

And remember teddie kennedy trying set up a deal with Russia to defeat Prez. Reagan in his second term election. The Brits outed this story after dear teddie passed on. Interesting to note the so called media never mentions this story when ranting about the alleged Russia hacking.

Gun control laws have nothing to do with gun safety, it is about government control of people. Single payer has nothing to do with health care, it is also about government control of people. AND, make no mistake about that --- the world is so jealous of Americans individual freedoms. However...

Without our 2nd Amendment the other nine Bill of Rights will not stand. I voted to preserve it. And I will continue to base my vote and political activities unapologetically to maintain it. It really is that simple. We must maintain our 2nd Amendment God given rights.

I have shot my bolt action .22lr in a few local Steel Challenge matches. I bought a Ruger American 22 bolt action because it takes the 30 round magazines so I could shoot in the match. I use a low power scope. And I do this for the purpose of burning in muscle memory to reload and get back on...

Yup, show the blood, the hits, the critter going down and the performance of the projectile. And the gutting and skinning. I do like to hear what the brand of equipment is, rifle caliber, bullet brand, type and weight. Thanks, we need more hunting and shooting shows.

Nice !!!!!! I built one with five sides and round top and bottom for my Kudu. Yours is so much nicer. Any chance you would post the plans or some more photos showing the details of the carpentry work/design?
