El Chivo, what purpose are you wanting to fill with the "automatic"? I like my 44 sixgun for hunting and woodsbumming but I prefer a semi-auto for daily carry and self-defense. I carry a Glock 23 in 40S&W. The compact size makes it easier to carry than a full size yet its easier to be ...

I will definately be praying for her. I'm not sure but I thought you were suppose to keep the area of the body that was bitten lower than the level of the heart to slow down the spread of the venom to the rest of the body. Is this not correct? Also thought you were suppose to put a "constrictin...

RustyJr

Welcome Bunyan. Like the others have said, you will find many here with a wealth of knowledge that you can draw from. Sounds like you got a good lever. Now you just need to find yourself a good big bore sixgun to go with it.

Ya beat me to it OS. But what does that kind of "pi" have to do with a refrigerator?

I think I recall Paco having a 92 or 94 winchester rechambered for 357 Maximum. Does anyone remember this or what he thought of it? Just curious.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Praying for your recovery and for your morale sir. Will also pray for the little ones that you are seeing.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Will do.

Judging by the vent rib on the barrel I'd say that it has a screw-in choke. Looked like a semi-auto with a magazine extension. Most certainly seemed effective. I've seen photos and videos of people killing hogs using themal scopes. Have they ever thought of combining the heliopter tactics with the t...

RustyJr

I think it would be interesting to get one of those bolt guns or even an AR chambered in 300 Whisper. Seems to me that in the calibers you listed he would still here the crack of the round breaking the sound barrier. Depending on your range that you are shooting at, wouldnt one of Paco's cat sneeze ...

RustyJr

I think that a 30-30 placed in the same place ( a touch back of the boiler room) would have probably resulted in the same results. I think that the lack of proper shot placement, not the cartridge were to blame for not recovering the deer. IMHO

RustyJr

RustyJr

The 30-30 Cull post that 86er had from a few years ago made me think. Does anyone have any experiance with the 270 winchester and its use on game with some of the "regular" walmart brand ammuntion such as Remington Core-lokts and Winchester powerpoints? My main curiosity is how they do at ...

RustyJr

If I were to need a long gun for big bear defense it would either be a 45-70 guide gun or a remington 870 with a rifled slug barrel and slugs. And of the two I think I just might pick the 870. While the 45-70 might penetrate more, a slug would surely penerate plenty and while a CNS hit is the only g...

With archery season not too far around the corner I was wondering how many archers we have around here and what equipment you use. Im currently shooting a 55# Bear monatana longbow but also have a Darton 50# compound that doesnt see much use any longer.

RustyJr

RustyJr

I'll have to side with those that for glocks. While I think a 1911 looks better and sometimes even feels better in the hand, my compact model 23 in 40S&W "feels" good when im carrying concealed and the unmatched reliability "feels" pretty good too.

RustyJr

RustyJr

I'd say the 444 would be a very versitale cartridge for most game. However for small game and woodsbumming I think a Marlin or Win 92 in 357 would be about perfect for what your talking. Light enough recoil to be enjoyable to shoot yet powerful enough to take deer and hogs all day long.

20-30 pound coon that had been raiding a friend's feed room. Shot him at night with a Glock 23 in 40 S&W. Surefire flashlight sure came in handy.

If you are wanting something that you can use for up close as well as long range, you might want to look into an aimpoint and a magnifyer. The aimpoints come wth dots that are either good for either 2 moa or 4 moa. The magnifyers mount behind the the red dot rectical. If you need to clear a room you...

Does anyone have any experiance or know anything about this brand of tree stands? http://www.huntriversedge.com/home_re.asp We are about to start carrying these where I work at Tractor Supply and since I do not own a treestand am considering getting one.

Does anyone have any field experiance on game using Winchester Power-Point ammunition in 270 Winchester in the 130grn loading? I currently handload for my grandfathers Remington 721 in 270, but shooting factory Winchester ammunition, I'm getting 1/2"-3/4" groups at 100 yards using a Ruger ...

RustyJr

Not sure about the clothing but here sure doesnt look like he knows how to handle a rifle. Seems kinda careless to be resting an arm on that rifle barrel without a hand on it to make sure it doesnt fall over. Thats just MHO.

Looks like you got a good one. I have an 2007 F-150 that I bought used in 09 and am completely happy with it. Hope you like yours as well as I do mine.

I very rarely buy gun magazine any more but do like to read articles by Massad Ayoob, Brian Pierce, John Barsness, Bart Skelton and John Taffin. Aside from these gentleman there arent too many that I care to read. While I agree that there arent many good ones left these days there are some that I st...

Does the Big Boy have strength issues. I was under the impression that it was pretty stong. Is this not correct?

Thnks,

RustyJr

Can anyone recommend a good factory load in 45 Long Colt that would be suitable for deer and hogs out of a Henry Big Boy? The rifle belongs to a friend of mine so reloading is not possible at this time. Also it seems to feed round nose flat points well but semi-wadcutters take a little more force to...

RustyJr

I'd suggest staying away from the Remington stuff that has "SPS" marked on it. The stocks they use are too flimsy in my opinion. I have a SPS Tactical and the rubber stock comes in contact with the barrel if you put to much pressure on the front.

RustyJr

RustyJr

Anyone had any experiance with the Winchester Power Points in 130grn loading?

RustyJr

RustyJr

I could be wrong but I tend to put the 5.56/223 a bit above the 30 carbine b/c of the higher velocity and the fragmentation of the round. Not to mention the ability to hit at longer range. IMHO

Ive heard people from time to time talk about various wars and battles that occurred through history and ask what weapon would you take if you were able to travel back in time. Well Im gonna put a different twist on this one. Do you think that U.S. forces would have faired any better or worse had th...

I have a friend that has a Colt manufactured 1911 and a Colt Police Positive in 32-20. Can anyone direct me to a site where I could run the serial numbers to find the dates of manufacture?

Thanks,

Old Iron sights, have you had any reliability issues when using a 9mm barrel in a 40 frame?

RustyJr

RustyJr

I have a Glock 23 in 40 S&W and was wondering if it was possible to buy an after market barrel in 9mm for it. I've got different responses from different people. Someone said that the 9mm will work and and another told me that it was 357 Sig that interchanged with the 40. Can anyone shed some li...

AR15 for HD and hunting and a Glock 23 for CCW.

RustyJr

I own a 1911 and it fits my hand better than any other handgun I've handled. However my every day carry gun that I use for CCW is a Glock 23. My first Glock was a 21. Sold it because it didnt fit my hand quite right. For me if its going to be a 45 make it a 1911 so long as it is reliable. Other than...

Not sure if it would work, there is a trick I heard about that is used to keep black bears out of an area. Here in Florida it is illegal to hunt/shoot black bear but in the northern part of the state they are in abundance and can rwreck havoc on deer feeders and food plots. An older gentleman that I...

Ive only shot an M1 Garand in 30-06. However if I had to pick between the two I wold go with the M1A. Ammo is still in use by military and law enforcement and the weapon itself can be modified to fit a variety of applications. While I think the 7.62 round is overpowered for clearing rooms in an urba...

I just read that law enforcement in Bradenton, Fl are now requiring body armor to be worn since this incident occured. While it is sad and unfortunate that this incident occured. Maybe it will cause other departments to adopt similar policies that will save officer's lives in the future. RustyJr

RustyJr

FWIW the officer (25 year veteran) was NOT wearing a vest. Body armor is issued but is optional in St. Pete. If im not mistaken he took 4 rounds to the chest. May he rest in peace. Thoughts and prayers are with the family and brother officers.

I've only hunted coyotes a time or two and that was with a rifle because at the time I didnt have a suitable shotgun. If I were to use a shotun it would bemy 870 12ga loaded with remington 2 3/4" 00 buck simply beause its what I have and patterns well out of my gun.

RustyJr

RustyJr

One way would be to start trapping them like they do here in Florida and in Texas. I doubt they will eradicate them completely but they might be able to get the numbers down somewhat. Hogs just adapt too well to get rid of them completely.

RustyJr

RustyJr

You have a picture of that rifle? Sounds interesting. Is it just a stock rifle that you modified?

RustyJr

RustyJr

One of the new Marlin 1895XLR with a fixed 4 power Weaver. Big or small its no problem when your totin a 45-70.

I'd like to put my name in the running for that rifle

I work retail at Tractor Supply. It never ceases to amaze me when someone comes in looking for a blanket or a halter for a horse and when asked what size the horse is they give you this blank stare and then mumble something about a medium sized one.
