$100. Includes storage and stuff bags. Used on one, 3 night trip. Decided my serious backpacking days are behind me and I want to switch to a roomier bag. Temperature rating seems accurate as nighttime lows were in the mid 20s and I was toasty.
Anyone have some tips for packing a
nd long distance transporting a carcass or skin to a taxidermist? Most likely, it'll be a coyote skin to be made into a rug, but a full body mount of a 'yote or jackrabbit could be a possibility. Is it better to have the work done near the hunt and the...
Has anyone hunted varmints there and know about the best calls and techniques to use in the winter? I'll be in the Santa Fe National Forest in Dec. The budget couldn't accommodate big game licenses, so I'll shoot the deer and elk with a camera. Nonresident small game and nongame licenses are...
I've seen some steel-framed 1866 replicas for sale. I know the originals were made with gunmetal (a brighter colored version of bronze-looks like brass, but stronger) receivers, but does anyone know if there was ever a run of these made with steel or iron?
Why do I want a non-resident permit? There is one state I enjoy traveling to (NM) that doesn't honor an LA permit. They do, however honor TX and FL, both of whom offer NR permits. Is there an instructor in the BR/DH area who is approved by these states?
It's too late to help me with my...
My CZ75 likes 124gr +P Speer Gold Dot, but I've just bought an LC9 that's with the holster maker right now. I was wondering if anyone could recommend defense loads for the shorter barreled pistol.
About to start developing a couple of loads for the M1 Garand. Actually 4 loads: a 150 grain GI duplicate, a 125-130 grain short range, light recoil load for introducing nieces and nephews to the Garand, a more serious target load, and a hunting load. Has anyone got a favorite they want to...
I watched Anatomy of a Murder and it raised an interesting question:
Would successful use of a temporary insanity defense constitute being "adjudicated mentally defective" and bar the person from buying a gun?
Just picked up my new El Paton from Hebert Guns yesterday and we're about to go out for a test shoot. The El Paron is supposed to be hand tuned from the factory, but the action didn't feel as nice to me as my EMF Hartford SAA clones. The old trick of putting a leather washer under the mainspring...
My Mernickle High-Rise arrived Monday and I'm very satisfied with the fit, workmanship and design of this holster. A 5½" SAA conceals nicely on my right hip as long as I wear a long-tailed shirt.

No, the SAA isn't my daily carry gun, but one...
Just got a Rossi 92 in .38Spl/.357Mag. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but cycled some .38s and had a lot of failures to eject. Has anybody had any experiences like this? It looks like the bullet of the cartridge on the lifter is hitting the one being extracted and knocking it loose from...
Sounds kind of goofy at first, but it is an area where you have some extra concerns about concealing and retaining your gun.

Hey, I've got a challenge for budding gunleather designers out there: Some kind of a keeper that will stop your belt tip from...
