I have a hard time wanting to buy a gun that doesn't have an option for iron sights. First of all, I like shooting with irons, second of all I like to have the option in case my optic fails. We could sit and argue how reliable optics have gotten, cause they have gotten pretty darn good, but I...

I'm so sorry for everyone here who has lost dogs recently, my grandparents lost theirs not long ago too. My grandpa said it was about the saddest thing he had done to bury his little friend. I lost my oldest cat some years ago, had to have her put down because she couldn't breath properly. I was...

I have a Mossberg 590. When things started to get weird in my old neighborhood, my Dad asked me if I had to choose a defensive gun in 30 seconds, what would it be? In 2 seconds a gave my definite answer, a Mossberg 590. It now has Magpul furniture on it, and a red dot that may or may not...

This is so sad to hear, and I have heard it more and more often lately. I have an unquestioned faith in a God who is my savior, and this is my solace in the pains of life. When I hear about this though, it makes me burn with a passion to lift my loved ones up in any way I can and make certain as...

Oh neat! What model and caliber?

Wow, neat! I've considered getting a replica of an old Sharps before. I like old rifles like these.

Thanks everyone, and especially you Blkram. I will probably be re-reading your post frequently as I get into archery!

My relatively recent move has me on a big enough piece of property that I can practice shooting a bow safely on it, so obviously I want to! I would love to eventually bow hunt, but I will be sticking to target practice for a good while. The thing is I know almost zilch about bows, so I am...

What others have said would be my first suspicions, worn out spring, or gummed up internals. A less likely problem that comes to mind though is that the firing pin tip could have been damaged somehow and is no longer protruding properly, or perhaps the firing pin could have gotten burred and is...

My Mom was bit by a smaller wolfy once. They are not deadly but their bite can eat away your skin. It is kind of the effect of getting a burn. Ran into a Brown Recluse only once, hiding in a closet in some kid play tents. Nobody got bit, thank goodness. Encountered many more Black Widows than...

No I didn't. I still hope to get to it one day but it just ended up lower priority than I had hoped. I am happy to wait patiently though. I still think about it and browse potential components for the build once in awhile.

Sorry to hear of your loss Guy, but glad that you have some fond memories to reflect on as well. I'm sure we could use more men like him today. In my young adulthood, I look to the great men of yesterday for the encouragement I need to be a good man myself.

Nice work! I am sure your work will be much appreciated. It looks great.

"For lives that passed us by For love and it's last cry For the ones we have left behind For a close friendship's end For how this kinship is rent For the ones we won't see again" These are the first words of the first song I ever wrote, and they seemed applicable. God bless America. "It is...

Had a bunch of hummingbirds flying around my house lately. They are so neat!

You are not wrong in saying that the Democratic party is Communist, or if we want to get to the only point of any relevance, they are just as bad and just as corrupt. I don't really care what we call them in the end, just that we recognize that they are not in any way attempting to support the...

I'd have a hard time not taking that into the woods! Fantastic looking gun for sure.

Looking good, groups and gun alike!

I have to say that my views are conflicted in today's world. I believe in the methods we used to gain independence from England, and I do not see how the passage of time could change the necessity of those methods. However, I feel we don't have the numbers to support that way of thinking any...

I feel I've let my emotions get the better of me. This probably is not the place for these kinds of statements as they do little good and are fairly lacking context of the bigger picture.
