    Ideas to keep people off my property

    If he is always armed, I would be reluctant to use dogs. While I like dogs, and am not the least bit bothered by a Cane Corso, Dogo Argentino, Tibetan Mastiff, Presa Canario, Dobermans, Rotweillers etc chewing on trespassers, I wouldn't want a good dog to get shot by the jerk trespasser. As...

    Fudd RO of all Fudd’s??

    Fudd wars are funny. I used to belong to a club that only allowed "certified bench rest shooters" to place targets on the 500 yard range on Wednesday mornings. A few of the club Fudds wanted to use it as their private range on Wednesday mornings and would usually shoot a few rounds, drink...

    GRAVITY: It's not just a good idea....its the LAW! If idiots could fly, they would block out the sun. The difference between genius and stupidity: Genius has it's limits.

    Maggie’s Man's Best Friend Thread

    I'm beginning to wonder if dogs are addictive. We are content when we have them, but when they are gone, it hurts terribly, we have intrusive thoughts about them, and we want another dog, or more dogs. Much of that is very similar to addictive behavior. Plus, I have always thought that if...

    Maggie’s Man's Best Friend Thread

    Well I have wonderful news... After my sad posting of March 1st, where I wrote about an owl killing my dog of 14.5 years (he was 18.5 years old, but we rescued him when he was 4 years old), we are getting a new pup. We tried three different rescue groups that charged up to $500 per dog, and...

    Maggie’s Washington best state according to US News.... I call Bullshit

    I agree with the above posting that Oregon and Washington are aesthetically fabulous, but the politics of both states are terrible. Liberals have taken over both states, and while the liberals have the numerical superiority, the geographic majority of both states are conservative. Oregon has...

    Lost another one this morning UPDATED

    I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. They were beautiful dogs. The pain of loosing a beloved dog is indeed staggering. An owl killed my 18.5 year old small terrier about ten days ago..the pain of loss like that is staggering.

    I used to have a little female red nosed pit bull. When I would go to the river, she would wade out to where the water was about mid chest deep for her, and would put her head underwater and look around until she found just "the right" rock. Then she would pick it up, and place it on the...

    Warrant? We don’t need no stinking warrant..

    I haven't worked much with bounty hunters so I really aren't in a position to discuss the manner in which they are allowed to arrest, detain, transport people out on bail. I'm fine with what you are saying about bail bondsmen. My experience is only on the LE side of things. If a bail...

    Warrant? We don’t need no stinking warrant..

    Interstate warrants are even more difficult to confirm than local ones where dispatch can usually confirm with just a phone call. On the interstate warrants, we even needed to find out if the state issuing the warrant would even extradite if we did snag their guy. I know local PD didn't...

    When Did Moderate Become a Bad Word?

    I'm not a conservative. I am a liberal logical thinker. I think it is the logical thinking that many leftists miss. I can put liberal in front of anything I choose...

    Warrant? We don’t need no stinking warrant..

    I guess times have changed. My agency, and the agencies that helped us execute any warrants ALWAYS confirmed the warrant prior to taking action on it. If we were going looking for Joe Blow, we always had C-com (central communications) confirm the warrant before we would go to the house looking...

    My 18.5 year old male Terrier mix, Casey was killed and taken away by an Owl around 4:45 AM on Saturday, 27 February. I am crushed, broken, and really struggling with the loss. I know I'll be OK in the long run, but for now my heart is aching terribly. Folks can tell from my previous posts...

    Hunting & Fishing Let’s start a coyote thread.

    A few decades ago when the fur market was better, a friend of mine used to hunt coyotes professionally in S.E. Oregon. He got tired of hearing the bullet thwack the coyote only to have it run off and loose it. So he bought two Borzoi dogs (Russian Wolfhounds) that he would take hunting with...

    Finland M39 Mosins

    Years and years ago when I owned a Finnish M39 I found an article discussing the accuracy requirements that the Finn's had for their rifles, and it was quite impressive. When using the cheap military ball ammo that came in a torquoise colored paper box with a diagonal silver stripe on the box...

    Serial Number Missing

    I had a Stevens 12 gauge side by side shotgun that didn't have any serial number on it. Even the gunsmith I took it to couldn't find one.

    FBI Sniper Rifles

    About 12-15 years ago I bought one of the FN SPR A3G rifles because of it's features and because the FBI apparently used it as their rifle. The first SPR A3G I bought just wouldn't shoot accurately. FN initially blamed my ammo, me and my shooting, the scope (Leupold MK4), the rings, the base...

    Demo how to cut foam in rifle case from Optics Planet

    I haven't lived in the Portland metro area for about the past 10-11 years. I lived in that area for a long time, but I gotta admit, the Portland area really has turned to shit. It is too bad because like Seattle, Portland used to be a terrific city.
