    Mods can just create a section called "Live in Mom's Basement and Should be Assessed". That way the rest of us can ignore it safely.

    Sold TallTines Longbow 53#@29 1/2"

    TallTines 3 piece t/d Tundra made by Brian Wessel. Purchased from original owner after i needed a rehab bow. As title states, 53#@29 1/2"- 64" bow (i would say 48-49#@ 28"). Not as quick as the Stick Flinger, but still quick enough. Gaboon Ebony riser with checkering and nice veneer limbs with...

    Any Kimber Hunter love here?

    Like mentioned above, they are an acquired taste-coming from a lifetime of good wood and rich blueing it was a shift for me. I have one in 30-06, and after reducing the weight even more and learning to manage the quirks of shooting an ultralight rifle it is MOA with my practice loads and 1/2...

    Pronghorn longbow

    Nope. If i recall correctly it was 59#@28" and was a 64" three piece. I traded it for either a JD Berry or a Hill ASL (neither of which i still have). I went through a period twelve or so years ago where i was horse trading bows every couple of months.

    WTS Shipping to Canada

    Like others here, as a BC resident i have shipped and received a lot of items to/from the U.S. I fully agree that Canadian purchasers should: do the shipping cost legwork (less than five minutes if going USPS and you know the ZIP code of the seller) Be willing to pay the cost differential- the...

    Rebarrel a Kimber or Restock a Winchester 70

    I have a fondness for Kimbers and M70s, and i don't think you can go wrong with either one as a platform. Hit up Gary Flach in Langley and get his opinion (he has built many from both makers and he works closely with Stuart from Wildcat).

    Football fans???

    After 35 years of cheering for the Bengals i feel like less of a loser this year... It was a rough few years wondering how many starting players would be out on parole or probation in time for spring training camp.

    The misery of a lost deer.

    Ten years ago my Dad's wood stock broke and he made almost the identical shot that you described on a large late season whitetail buck (stock split apart at the wrist). Just like yours it dropped at the shot, rolled and ten seconds later got up and ran off. We tracked it for four hours that day...

    Stryker to a Bikini platform frame

    I have had bikini frames for a long time, and looking at the attachment points on the website they use the same common loops as the old mountain rambler and emrII for mounting which both fit the bikini frame. No slight to the Kifaru team (probably best CS in the business), but with their growth...

    Wife worried

    InReach Mini is great. But its also a good idea to break down the "what ifs" and demonstrate to your loved ones that you have the skills and equipment to look after yourself. Show them your map and compass and that you know how to use it. Show them your first aid kit and fire kit. Explain how...

    Wow. Female Biologist fends off grizzly with knife.

    Actually, people working in remote areas in Northern Canada can get permits to carry. Usually reserved for trappers and prospectors/geologists (my cousin had a carry permit for a large frame S&W for years when he did field geo work). It is just a HUGE pain in the ass to get the permit and to...

    Are you overbowed? Let's have a discussion

    Heavier bows become easier to shoot when proper form (including back tension) is learned. This reduces strain on bicep tendons and other high risk connective tissues. When there is true alignment, higher poundage is manageable (whereas it is impossible without good form and that's when we see...

    6.5x55 swedish??

    In answer to barrel life and strings of fire the 6.5x55 is a common round for Stangskyting competitions in Scandinavia. Some strings can be 20+ consecutive rounds. Straight pull Krags and Husqvarna CG63's are popular rifles due to the ability to cycle the bolt quickly. And yes, i am big fan of...

    B.C. Bluetongue outbreak

    With the drought year we have had this was a concern. https://www.castlegarnews.com/news/disease-reportedly-kills-off-dozens-of-bighorn-sheep-near-grand-forks/ Hope it doesn't spread into the Fraser population.

    WTS FS Kifaru Bikini and G2 Duplex

    A couple of bargain frames for young hunters or for those testing the waters of backpacking. These are bare frames (no bags or accessory straps). Both frames are sound, but they have seen a lot of use and as such have wear and tenacious tape repairs. The Bikini Frame is 26", flat back profile...
