Another reason I sold it off was it was too dang pretty to be taking out in the woods and beat up. Having a Colt in a box tucked away in a safe wasn't for me. This Vaquero is slightly used and is a tank, Plus with the money I made off of it I'm also getting a Smith & Wesson shield for concealed ...

jkbrea

I'm not an expert on them but I know the older Vaqueros are built on the Blackhawk frames. I know it fits my hand a lot better than the Colt did. Maybe the grips are just fatter.

When I retired I bought a new 3rd gen .45 Colt SAA because I had always wanted one. Only thing is, it felt too small for may hands and ended up a safe queen. I didn't like my pinky under the grip and if I moved my hand up, the hammer dug into the web of my hand. Shooting it was not comfortable. So.....

jkbrea

Before retiring I was our department rangemaster and pretty much got to shoot whenever I wanted. I got kind of spoiled. After retiring I didn't shoot much but now that I moved to Wyoming and live on a gun range, I can shoot whenever I want. Somedays days I do long range shooting and others I just go...

Mine was really bad with rust and stains. I put it in the oven on the cleaning mode. Gets much hotter. When I was done all the crud and rust was on the bottom of the stove. It came out like it was brand new and all I had to do was season it.

jkbrea

I didn't even know which one of my Smith's had the lock. I checked and only have 1 that has the lock. I have no idea what ever happened to the key but I don't worry about it " locking up". I shot plenty of Magnum loads and never had a problem. To me it's kind of like the silly writing on m...

If you're in Jackson you can always come visit Jackson Hole Gun Club. About 3 miles south of town. I live there and you're welcome to come shoot. Lots of fishing all around. Right now its between skiing and tourist season so its not crowded.

jkbrea

I'm curious...how does one find a gun club he can live at? I practically "live" at the Atglen Gun Club but I really would like to live at the gun club.....well, not really, I like our home but it sounds cool living at a gun club. Nice pictures! Along with the beautiful scenery you have pr...

It's like moving to a different country! I'm just south of Jackson. I know the politics here, (Teton County)are split, but nothing close to what I left. That 2nd pic a coyote. They're much healthier than the zombie looking yotes in Ca.

Moved here over a year ago from So Cal and loving it. Snow was pretty brutal in Feb but melting off quick. It was -15 when I got my elk in December! I love Wyoming! And working/living at a gun club ain't half bad! Here are a few pic I took last month. The elk was through a spotting scope on a rifle ...

Comments are funny. Guess some didn't realize todays date.

jkbrea

I don't mind dressing out animals, I just hate the smell sometimes. Some recommend the gloves to avoid coming in contact with CWD. Personally, this year I was glad I wasn't wearing gloves. It was minus 15 when I got my elk and those innards kept my hands warm!

Hey Six, I have a 12 year old Shepherd that is starting to limp a lot after walks. She's a sweetheart and always wants to go with my 3 year old mini Aussie. But after a long walk she limps for a couple days. I tried some joint pain medication but it doesn't seem to work. Can you PM me the brand of o...

With no end-of-the-world scenario or zombies or anything like that, my Tikka 30-06 and one of my S&W .44 mag 4". Those are the ones that I use most when I hunt so I would have to keep those.

Thousands of white guys in Chicago and he picked two Nigerians?!?

Excellent scopes and warranty. I really like mine. 6x24x50 Hit over one mile using it with a 6.5 Creedmoor. I bought it used and it took a fall and broke the turret. Sent it in and got it back in 10 days in much better shape than when I bought it. They even replaced the scratched up caps and cleaned...

Only had one Weaver and it was a cheaper one. I bought a used Vortex for long range shooting in a Ruger LRP. Amazing clarity. Made two consecutive shots at a little over a mile. Customer service is great. Mine took a fall and bent the turret. About a 10 day turnaround and made to look like new. I wo...

Wild West Levers makes a nice one. It comes stock on the Marlin SBL. I've used it for years hunting and love it.

jkbrea

Mine is either a Springfield EMP 9mm or a S&W Model 19 bought right here from forum member "Walker" and carried on duty for a few years. He really hooked me up when funds were low.

jkbrea

Congrats!!! Now go shoot it!!

jkbrea

I went elk hunting about 16 weeks after a shoulder replacement. It gave me an excuse to buy a Marlin TK 30-30. I used one of those shotgun shoulder pads. It helped a little. It took me about 6 months before I could shoot a 30-06 and 45-70 pain free. My doctor wouldn't give me the ok. Maybe for liabi...

This is a link to an update of what occurred. I also spoke with a friend of the guide. He learned the guide sustained numerous cuts to his knuckles from punching the bear repeatedly while the client was able to escape. He also deployed his entire can of bear spray at some point and was able to walk/...

I had a Leupold rangefinder that I only got to use for about a month before I lost it on a hunting trip. It worked pretty good. I recently bought a Sig Kilo2000. I love it. It is very fast and very accurate. You can find them online for about $355 I believe.

Thanks! Spending it in Wyoming on the gun range with the kids and grandkids.

I just read where surplus 1911's will be sold through CMP if President Trump signs off on it. That would be awesome. No prices set yet though. I remember seeing crates of new 1911's still in grease when I was an MP in Germany. Always wondered what happened to them when they switched to Berettas afte...

I don't own a crossbow but my son just got one. He works for a sporting goods chain in Michigan. He told me a few customers have been praising CenterPoint sniper crossbows. One of his regulars, an avid crossbow hunter, said it is every bit as good as his very expensive crossbows. I read some good re...

jkbrea

They'll definitely work. I've taken a few elk with 325 grain. Happy hunting.

I wanted to get into coyote hunting after they killed my dog. I didn't want to spend hundreds on a FoxPro. I found an electronic call called ICOtec on Amazon. About $75. It has a wireless remote that claims its good to 200 yards although mine is maybe good to 100. Sounds awesome and plenty of calls ...

I spent 30 yrs in L.E. and about 15 yrs ago had my rt shoulder cleaned out due to several injuries, then a total replacement 15 yrs later at 52 yrs old that forced retirement, even though I felt 100 percent.

Interesting read. I carried bear spray and a .44 along with my rifle last year elk hunting in Wyoming. A pair of local hunters I ran into preferred firearms and scoffed at bear spray. There may be a difference between an aggressive bear and a "normal" encounter. https://www.ammoland.com/20...

I spoke to a warden in Wyoming while hunting. He told me he gives his children airhorns to scare off bears while they're outside playing and he's used them successfully. He said bear spray works but if the wind blows it back, it can incapacitate the user. As of last year I'm carrying spray and a .44...

that is a more modern photo than it appears. what gives it away for me is the light in the back ground and the sharpness of the trees, film in the early 1900s wasn't that sharp. it could be from the 50s up, but I think latter than that,,,, I agree that ain't a Kodak box pic, but... given the depth ...

After an early medical retirement due to numerous job related injuries, I got a little out of shape..well not really because round is a shape. :D My love is chasing elk and I'm not about to give it up. Every year about this time I hit the gym a lot and hike in preparation. It does get a little harde...

I've gone from a Ruger .380 (which in my opinion is very, very weak), to a LC9 which I liked but gifted to a friend. For years I've carried a Springfield EMP which is a compact 1911 built for a 9mm. It is the nicest compact pistol I've ever shot. Extremely reliable and accurate. It is pricey but wel...

That's only about 30 minutes from me. My wife and I actually looked at a boat there last month.

Sounds like a great.....and busy time. Is that the BassPro in Rancho Cucamonga? They have a nice selection of boats.

Conveyor belt works great and lasts a very long time When I ran a range we used conveyor belt rubber about 3' x 4' nailed to 2x4s on a base. They last a very long time and are weatherproof. They are easy to staple into. Each would take about 2000-3000 rounds a month. We replaced them once a year on...

That's fast. I looked at YouTube and saw a video of Jerry Mikulek fire 6 rounds from a revolver, reload and fire 6 more on target in 2.99 seconds. That's insane! I'd post it but couldnt get it to copy.

Drew a cow/calf tag this year. I posted last year that I had to go to a different area of Wyoming after 25 years hunting the same unit. Available tags in certain areas drastically changed a couple years back. I suspect it's due to wolves moving further south. I went in blind last year and kind of ju...
