    New Turkey Gun.......gimme your thoughts

    I found federal for 35 per 5. Not cheap, but will last a few years.

    Thompson Center Encore is finally coming back!

    We can only hope. Would be nice to see frames in the 400 range instead of 650+. New contender frames from ssk are selling at 400, no reason the encore should cost more.

    Hornady buys Thompson Center

    I saw it on haus of arms Facebook page. It shows an elk and then taking off the safety on a bolt rifle, which I believe is an icon. I will be happy if they bring back the encore frames for around 400 and if they have spare parts.

    Suppressor tips?

    It started going down hill with the 2013 mag ban and background checks. It’s just getting worse now. Glad I left when home values were crazy.

    Suppressor tips?

    No way they can enforce a ban on threaded barrels if there is any sort of grandfather clause. They are not serialized or dated and can be threaded without being recorded in a ffl log book. Absolutely no way for law enforcement to easily prove when a barrel was threaded or purchased. The only...

    Good chance as one of the teasers shows the icon rifle.

    Annealing causing pressure increase

    Only a guess, but different neck tension due to the annealing? Did you check neck od before bullet seating?

    New Turkey Gun.......gimme your thoughts

    I went with a Cva scout in 410 with red dot. Ran about 500, nice little gun. Have not got one yet, but patterns look good. I would have considered a Stevens if I could have found one in 410. The local fleet farm has them for under 200.

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    Not that simple when dealing with the feds. They will bankrupt you before you win. Knowing someone who got tangled with the feds (he never committed a crime) they make life unpleasant for a long time.

    Suppressor Timetables

    Individuals seem to be quick. Trusts, not so much. I have 6 outstanding, including a form 1 from October. I did get notification that my nics delay cleared yesterday, but still no approvals. Got my senator involved and that seemed to help, but still took 2 weeks from them requesting an...

    Reintroduced gray wolf found dead in Larimer County, Colorado

    Elbert county is front range. Used to live in elbert, but not elbert county. Wolves in that area will lead to conflicts with people.

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    It’s a sr5 sport. It has car play, but only if wired. They were cheap with the chipset. Might be no keyless ignition due to being a manual. One other gripe, the floor mats would get stuck in the clutch pedal. Checked with service and only one version was available, ordered one from weather...

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    While this is completely a first world problem, Toyota is way behind on electronics for the Tacoma. Not sure if the new ones are better, but my 21 doesn’t have keyless entry or the blue tooth bandwidth to support CarPlay. In todays market I expect both of those things in a new vehicle.

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    This is by design. If it’s actually defined, say only 1 per month or quarter, then it’s easy to know if you are in compliance or not. If it’s squishy, then the prosecutor can make it what fits the case.

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    I got a 21’ as it was one of only two trucks left that are available in a manual, jeep gladiator is the other. After owning a 01 taco I swore I wouldn’t ever get another one. That one was awful suspension, too soft springs and too much damping. Wallowed with a pad and harsh as heck on...

    Woman’s shotguns

    As you said it’s all about fit. I would try to find a club that rents shotguns first, then have her try shouldering different guns. You might even need a fitting after buying to get it just right. I have found I need different length of pull for upland hunting depending on time of year and...

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    Honestly if you only drive 30-40 miles per day a bolt will go 3 days easily. You may find that you really like it for a grocery getter. I liked mine, but doesn’t have the range for where I live now. Btw it’s almost as fast as a mid 80’s mustang GT.

    The cartridge for the next 30 years….

    I have a friend who has his distinguished rifle man badge. Dude can shoot. Wind reading skills are far beyond what I will ever achieve. Best range story, he was on the line with a guy shooting a 300 win mag at 300 yards. Buddy was shooting standing with a sling. 300 wm guy was on bags off...

    Pressure: when is too much and why?

    You can check the brass for stretch/thinning with a L shaped pick. Run it up the inside of the case and if you can feel a valley/ridge forming at the case head, you are getting close.

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    Reading the faq it really doesn’t sound like anything changed. Tried the read the rule, but it sounded like it was written by AI. Lots of words, but no real specifics. sounds like you can still occasionally get a table at a gun show and sell without a license or background check provided...
