    TSA notice given to me about a Civil Penalty

    I AM NOT A LAWYER. The following is not to be construed as legal advice. If it were me I would send them a timely response that points out that the letter sent to you has numerous errors and that I am willing to discuss this. However, I will not make any admission to the letter sent until the...

    Gemtech /AM-TAC QM Jake Brake

    I have been using the Jake Brake for just over a year. As a comp, there is much better stuff out there. The PWS 5.56 rocks! But is incredibly loud and not at all teammate friendly. The Jake does a VERY good job considering it's dual purpose. I like the size and it is well made. I find that it...

    Hunting & Fishing Idaho unit 54 elk hunt

    Great hunt. Get up high listen for them. In this area Elk act like Elk. They will rut and bugle better than anywhere else in the state. The only predators they have are humans and lions. No wolves. You should have a truly great opportunity to kill a trophy. Dave

    100 yard zero @ 25 yards?

    My dope book lists my 25 yd zero as +2.25 MOA. So if a situation dictated that I reset a 100 yard zero using a 25 yd zange I would do thus: Fire and adjust until I had perfect hits at 25 yds. I would then reset my elevation knob to +2.25 MOA and call it good. My 25 yd verification rounds and...

    Looking for advice on bottom metal or dbm?

    I have put CDI stuff on two rifles. I found them to be outstanding. The each rifle has a five round and a 10 round AI magazine. The fit is solid and the mag release positive with little "slop" when inserted and locked into rifle. Single round loading is perfect. Keep the pointy end forward and...

    ELR accuracy compromised by camo skin?

    I have wrapped camo tape over rifle barrels in the past and found no change in accuracy. I tape my wifes bright stainless .250 Ackley barrel every year without any accuracy issues. Most of her shooting is 100-700yds. However, I prefer to rattle can Krylon my rifles if camo is needed. This...

    Hunting & Fishing Deer Hunting with a 6.5 Creedmoor Questions

    Don't own a 6.5CM. But I have been getting it done for many years with a 6.5 Gibbs. The Berger 140 VLD is Thor's hammer on all game up to and including elk for me. Although shots on elk are best when limited to lung shots. Or shots avoiding large shoulder bones at extended distances.

    Hunting & Fishing Elk Hunting with a Handgun 2013

    Thanks for the comments by everyone. Punisher29073, You will not find a bigger fan of the 45 Colt (The Big Colt) than I. If your Vaquero's are the old larger frame you will be amazed at the potential they hold. I load WFN 300gr lead for an everyday load. It gets out at 1200 fps and will pass...

    Hunting & Fishing Elk Hunting with a Handgun 2013

    Idaho Savage, No offense. This hunt goes from August 3rd to Sept. 15th. Any weapon. Cow only. Hunt is #2108 if this helps. Is the video link working for anyone? It is The Shot as it happened. If not I would accept any input in how to make it work.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns "Flashbang" Womens' Concealed Carry System?

    My wife has one for her Ruger LCP. It is the first holster that I have found that she will wear everyday! Great set up and comfortable for her. Well worth the money. If she has to draw her gun reholstering is a non issue. The gun will remain out until it is not needed any more. At that time...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 17 Lone Wolf Timberwolf Frame Initial Review

    Re: Glock 17 Lone Wolf Timberwolf Frame Initial Review Great review. I wish mine was the same as yours. I experienced a roller coaster with the Timber Wolf frame. My brother purchased one. Mags did not drop free. We had 1 mag that would drop free. ONE. Out of a total of 14 Glock mags. Some...
