    Texas hogs from field to table

    Had a lease near Halletsville for a bit over a decade. Absolutely over run with pigs. But, they are smart and you’ll only see them once per season during the day. I turned my camera settings so that it would only capture pics between sunrise and sunset. Too many nocturnal hogs running down the...

    Texas hogs from field to table

    Thankfully, I’m a member of a private range. Even there, the shenanigans are pretty wild. There’s a ranch around here that has some billboards. Their pitch is literally “Come help us with our hog problem.” Go to the website and it’s $X per day + a kill fee + $Y/lb above some weight. I’ll...

    Texas hogs from field to table

    My point is just that if they were actually a pest, land owners would be paying hunters to shoot them. Not the other way around. As to nasty or tough? My son shot a sow that was probably 250 lbs and I’d much rather eat more of that than any deer I’ve ever had.

    Texas hogs from field to table

    Imagine paying for a wild hog hunt, where the land land owner then sells the carcasses for an additional profit. I’ve been saying it for years. For many land owners (pretty much every one selling hog hunts), wild hogs are a windfall, not the pest they are made out to be.

    Buying a Handgun is Hard

    BUT, S&W IS THE REASON WE HAVE TRIGGER LOCKS ON ALL NEW GUN PURCHASES. THEY'RE TRAITORS TRAITORS TRAITORS TRAITORS! Bill Ruger gave us the 10 round magazine restriction. TRAITOR! And Walther built guns for the Nazis. So did HK and FN. You can buy one of those, if you’re a Nazi. Real talk. Out...

    What the Jesus Fu#ck, Hegseth?

    Qatar has been a US ally since Desert Storm. Both can be true. Not “having an air base” is not the same thing as not ”having a facility to train pilots at an existing US airbase…”

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Red dot or not on your "life or death" pistol?

    Well used GIGN Bren 2, in 7.62x39. Acog+rmr. No iron sights. But, it probably never made the dangerous journey to the neighborhood 7-11. Image screen capped form Forgotten Weapons video on the rifle…

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Red dot or not on your "life or death" pistol?

    I use the Force, because the irons could be knocked off of zero, or otherwise be improperly regulated.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Red dot or not on your "life or death" pistol?

    Don’t turn the dot off. Change the battery on your birthday, or new years, or your anniversary, etc. Check the dot before you leave the house.

    Suppressors Will suppressor impact the POI?

    Check for end cap strikes. Inspect the target impacts for any sign that the bullets are unstable when they impact. Oblong holes, even only subtly, might indicate that the bullets are impacting the can as they exit.

    What the Jesus Fu#ck, Hegseth?

    In many ways, the US Civil War was a continuation of the debates between the Federalists and the Antifederalists. While the federalists won out, you can thank the Anti-Federalists for the protections from the federal government enshrined in the Constitution.

    What the Jesus Fu#ck, Hegseth?

    Funny, I attended one of the most liberal colleges in the country (The University of Texas at Austin). Except for my Civil Liberties professor, who couldn’t see center from how far left he was, I’d have to hazard uneducated guesses at the political leanings of of the professors whose classes I...
