Sen Cassidy Position On Chipman Nomination
Oh yeah, it's a form letter, didn't mean to imply that he personally responded to me. I just didn't know where he stood on the Chipman nomination given some of his recent votes like impeachment. And of course he could change his vote tomorrow, but I am happy to see that at least for now he says...- deadduck

Good snake gun?
I have a Judge Public Defender, the smallest one. It's a great snake gun. I carry it when I'm out in the woods in the summer with a couple #4 shotshells for snakes, then either some buckshot or 45 Colt for bigger critters. I don't kill non-venomous snakes. In fact, unless a rattlesnake or... -
Sen Cassidy Position On Chipman Nomination
Got this email today from Sen Cassidy's office in response to my email opposing the Chipman nomination. I wasn't sure where he stood on the issue, but glad he opposes it. I knew Kennedy was opposed to it.- deadduck

your thoughts on a Taurus judge for .45lc only.
I've got a Judge Public Defender, the small one, 5 shot, 2 1/2" chamber. I also have a Blackhawk in 45 with 7.5" barrel. The Judge is great for snakes with #4 shot or buckshot. I do shoot 45LC out of it too. I haven't shot it at the range for accuracy, but it works ok for general plinking. If... -
30-30 Who is out there still using?
My first deer rifle was a Marlin 336. Still have it. Don’t hunt with it as much as I should since most of my hunting offers some long shot opportunities. Still, I bet 90% of the deer I’ve killed could have been taken with the 30-30. As far as the scope mounts, yep, many people set up their... -
Favorite deer rifle caliber?
The good thing about deer is that they aren’t that tough, so there are a lot of calibers that will work. I have killed deer with 35 Whelen, .444, 30-30, .308, 30-06, .300 Win Mag, .223, and .270. That said, the .270 in a Rem 700 is my go to deer rifle. Seems to me to be the best mix between... -

Remington or Browning
I shot a LT 20 years ago and would love to find one. -
Remington or Browning
Bought my Browning Gold 3 1/2 back in 2000, and it's been a GREAT gun. Tames the recoil of heavy goose and turkey loads but still cycles dove loads. Never had one problem with it. No experience with the 11-87, so can't comment on it. -
Broke out the M1 Garand yesterday
I've always wanted in IH built M1, as I grew up running IH farm equipment and my first truck was a 1971 IH Scout. Back when I ordered these it was luck of the draw, they didn't take requests. -
Broke out the M1 Garand yesterday
Thanks! He loves history, I've gotten him interested in WWII, so it was a big deal for him. He's looked at the rifles many times but this was the first time he worked up the courage to shoot one. Yeah, it's a shame that the current regime blocked the re-import of these rifles. The Danish... -
Broke out the M1 Garand yesterday
My son wanted to try his hand at shooting the M1 yesterday. For a 9 year old, I thought he handled it pretty well. It's a 4 million range Springfield, with various parts from an arsenal rebuild. I purchased it from the CMP in 2000 as a Service Grade rifle. Wish I had bought more ammo at the... -
New OD G26 & G19 - NOT HAPPY!
I've read some discussions on Glock Talk about this. The general consensus was that they are using less foam in the new boxes which is letting the locks and crap move around during shipment and scratch the finish. Hope they get your guns fixed up.
