Actually some members use out of state providers so it's not unusual. I use a service to check IP's to see if there a spam reports associated with the IP. There were none on this one so I let it thru. First one that has gotten thru in a long time I'm not talking about their ISP, I'm talking about t...

You'd think if they wanted to be sneaky they wouldn't do something dumb like setting their location to NC for a MN-based forum... But not everyone is smart.

If you would have just waited a couple days it could have been a 10 year old thread you were reviving. But no. You had to bring it back at 9 years and 360 days...

I'm sure the PETA-weenies will be peeing themselves over this...

$200 was the price of a 12 ga 870 Wingmaster in the fall of 1982 at Joe's Sporting Goods. I remember as it was $20 less than what I paid 5 years earlier for a 20 ga Wingmaster from the local hardware store. It taught me the value of checking around for prices. I paid $79 for my first 10/22 in 1987 ...

The question is not on recruiting newcomers, often kids, from hunting families; it is recruitment of individuals of all ages who have no hunting history in their families or immediate circle of friends. These people have no one to borrow or be gifted equipment so have to buy everything from scratch...

The whole premise that a youth needs to be fully outfitted from scratch to go hunting seems flawed to me. If someone is taking a youth hunting, I'd say in most cases they (the adult) has much of the equipment, especially firearms, to take them on an intro hunting session. After all, the accompanying...

My first reaction was to say "unbelievable", but in these times I had to stop myself because this is very believable coming from the left. Sad though.

It is amazing to me that the Trump supporters turned out in the numbers they did. I wouldn't have put myself into that $hitfest.

Wow, the cognitive dissonance of that first quote (Danielle Swift) is downright amazing. How does someone justify to themselves having access to evidence, *not* viewing said evidence, and then publicly condemning the person the evidence shows to have acted within the law, policy, and their own natu...

The truth of the matter is, the anti's are sad and angry people who won't ever be happy. Even if they get everything they say they want. It sure seems like the whole "Progressive" movement fits that description. After all, if your goal in life is to constantly "progress" toward ...

Just a word of warning... I bought a Vortex scope that had problems and returned it under warranty. Since it was brand new, I included everything in the box that it came with. They repaired it, but sent it back, in a different box, without all the goodies! After a call, they were good enough to sen...

The bubble wrap idea is entirely functional for your needs. But if you really want to be careful you could pick up some styrofoam sheeting from Home Depot or elsewhere and use it to layer and cut out a cradle that would fit the scope exactly inside the shipping box.

And you would think it wouldn't need to be a citizen opening a lawsuit. Shouldn't the state's attorney general see the city statue that is in violation of state law and take them to court her/himself?

We are in an echo chamber. The question should be how can we get the contrasting message out to the masses and interrupt the constant drone from the antis? That is the 42 dollar question... The bigger issue is the odd nature of the targeting of all the messages. Anti-gunners and their media friends...

Once you understand that the issue really is not guns but the power to control you, then you will understand where they are coming from and why they need no logic to their argument. I'm pretty sure 99.9% of them don't know they are useful-idiots. I'm pretty sure even half or more of the most radica...
