    Dual Sport/Enduro Motorcycle-Need Advice

    Go with the more on road than off ride bikes. I got a 08 Suzuki V Strom 650. I love it. 62 miles to the gallon too.

    Well fuck me running. Hard to believe after the black panthers put a bounty on him he carries a gun.

    Importance of eye protection

    I had an extractor blow off of a 22 that blew powder in my eyes. From that day on you will hardly see me without quality eye pro anytime I'm out, even when I'm not shooting. If I'm outside or even downstairs in the shop I have on eye pro. I'm glad you're OK.

    At what velocity/energy DON'T I need AR steel?

    Dogtown, it was given to him to T&E. I tried to steal it but it was too obvious when I stuck it in my pants. It is a damn good shooting gun.

    Fieldcraft Ghillie 'cloak' ?

    For hunting you don't need much. Head and shoulders down to your elbows is about all you need. I did a bdu shirt as my base, $20 netting off of eBay, and jute from burlap at Walmart. The shirt was from work but other than that I have about $35 in the setup. That includes a skid plate, heavy drop...

    At what velocity/energy DON'T I need AR steel?

    I have some A-36 3/8" steel we shoot 308 at. 400 yards is my minimum shooting distance. No dings or divits and it is not a swinger, just on a stand. At 400 yards with my rifle Im around 1850 FPS and 1280 ft/lbs of energy I had a friend who brought his Barrett MRAD in 300 Win Mag over. At 450 he...

    When is enough $$ enough $$ for dog surgery?

    I had a Wolf hybrid I only paid $200 for. When we lived around Richmond VA he got sick one night and we ran up to an overnight Vet. She was going through everything and I told her if it was going to be over $1000 we would just take him back home and make him comfortable. MISTAKE. The bill was...

    Looking for Wisdom at 1000 yards

    I have been thinking along your lines. There are too many unknowns to try to guess what may be the problem. I'm going to head back to the same spot and get a GPS reading at the target so I can know the distance for certain. I'm going to shoot the same distance again and double check everything...

    Looking for Wisdom at 1000 yards

    3200 feet, 80 Degrees, 2-4 mph wind from the 7 o'clock. I wish I had taken a picture of the rocks. Below the white rock we were shooting at was a 2 feet x 3 feet rock face hidden in the weeds from our posistion. Minus the spotters we shot about 15 rounds at the white rock. About 8 or 9 were...

    Looking for Wisdom at 1000 yards

    I went out plinking yesterday and had set up to shoot out to 1200 yards. The cows were gracious enough to ruin that shot by knocking over that target and being in that area after I left. So, I found a rock at an unkown distance, took a guess at 950 yards, dialed 32 minutes and took a spotter...

    Electric fence

    I was crossing an electric fence between two strands after setting out targets for my .22. I was maybe 13 and was going commando in my sweatpants with no shirt on. My back was too high making contact with the top wire and sending an arc out of my scrotom to the bottom wire. I shit you not it...

    I reaspect most LE, but this guy needs to be retired. *graphic warning*

    I don't know California law (thank god) but in VA its illegal to stand in the middle of the road. Unless you know every California law and county or town ordinance for where they were then you all saying they had no legal reason to arrest him is bullshit. Hell for all we know they could have...

    Go-bag list/ideas

    I second, or third by now, training with your pack. I used to put my girl down for a nap and hit the 2 acre block of woods on my property. I had a wireless baby monitor and could see the house a whole 30 yards away. I would make a fire first, then work a shelter that took a few trips to build...

    Hunting & Fishing Aren't Wolves supposed to be afraid of humans ...?

    He looks playful until that last picture. Then it looks like he needs a shorty shotgun with buckshot to the face. Both barrels.

    Ammo and fires

    I have a buddy that is a firefighter that has a nice scar above his lip where a round cooked off and a piece of brass ripped through his SCBA. He said it was like getting hit in the mouth with a hammer. My vote is its still dangerous.

    Night Vision NV training

    I actually found your training website and liked the sound of it. They are getting us a lot of new equipment and they say training but they don't like spending money on it. I will call next week and then pass it on to our leader over all of our teams. Thank you for the 2nd recommendation too...

    Night Vision NV training

    Our 10 man team is getting new night vision, maybe pvs-14 but not sure, and we have never had GOOD training using our NV and shooting M4s or pistols. We have a few pvs-14s now but they are about 8 years old or older. They will helmet mounted and/or rifle mounted depending on the person. The 2...
