    Generac generators for the home?

    Can you tell me more about the transfer switch and what all is involved with the installation? If I understand your post above, with a transfer switch, you can run the house off a standard generator. If so in your opinion what size generator would an average size house need to operate?

    Is the Expen$$$ive Turkey ammo worth it?

    I say no way on steel shot for turkey. If I didn't want to buy TSS, I would go with Hevi-shot or Bismuth.

    No USPS gun ship

    Wow, do you guys remember living in America? This place looks the same, but yet everything has changed. I can't believe how quickly things are changing for the worse. Okay, rant over.

    I dont understand the hostility towards wolf reintroduction in Colorado

    I can't understand why there would not be hostility towards wolves.

    The do it all self-defense pistol

    Probably either a Glock or Sig in the caliber of your choice. I would say 9mm, 40 SW, or 10mm. I also really like a Kimber 1911 in .45 ACP, 9mm, or 10mm. But why settle for just one…🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

    Badger fights to the death.

    I had one semi-charge me in the Idaho backcountry about 15 years ago. He certainly was not intimidated by my presence. However, that encounter was an anomaly in my experience.

    Knight secondary safety

    Yes, you can leave the screw-in safety on fire. It doesn't reset by itself. When I hunted with a Knight, I only used the screw-in safe when pulling it up and letting it down out of a tree.

    338 RSM caliber?

    IMHO, the 338 RCM is a woefully undervalued cartridge. If you reload like I do, it makes a great do-all rifle. It shoots flat, hits hard, and the recoil is not bad at all. It's also extremely accurate, and it does all of this out of a short barrel.

    The Future of Idaho

    How is the wolf population? When I hunted there in 2007, they seemed to be coming on very strong.

    New Ruger American Gen II

    I have never seen a Ruger American Gen 1 that didn't shoot lights out. I would expect these Gen 2 models to do the same.

    Boots under 200

    Dryshod is far and away my favorite rubber boot. If you don't want to go the rubber boot route, used or a deal sight as has been mentioned is probably your best bet.

    Speed Bead type sight

    Fowl Play, Thank you for sharing your experiences; that was what I was looking for. The speed bead interests me because it mounts between the stock and receiver, so it seems to set more in line with the rib.

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    I am bumping this one back to the first page. We can't let one of the best threads ever die.

    Speed Bead type sight

    Has anyone ever used a speed bead type sight for wing shooting? If so, what are your thoughts on the pros and cons? I am simply pondering what that type of sight would be like in a wing shooting situation.
