    Pack/Gear Shakedown

    Never mind about the boots. I looked them up I thought they were 49 oz each, as you list 1, and I thought, dam that, some heavy-ass boots.

    Pack/Gear Shakedown

    So, I am approaching this as a hunter and SAR responder who often is called out for hunters. Pistol or bear spray needs to be on your person. That way, if your pack is off, you can quickly access your defensive tool of choice. The upper base layer is cotton, or? I always recommend a hooded...

    6.5 CM - 130 TMK or 147 Eldm

    Anymore, I swear I can find the ELDM's at the grocery store, so that's why I go with them.

    Use of Walkie Talkies in CO

    You are correct, I have seen a crew of guys using them to guide in on animals, which I did report to F&G. That type of BS hurts all of us.

    MDT HNT26 Chassis System

    That 3k also includes a $900 Proof carbon barrel so there’s $2600 in great parts for the elite ultra light but it’s hard to pull the trigger on buying it.
