    New air rifle….

    arrived yesterday. Have yet to unbox. 2024 Umarex gauntlet 2 with side lever. Demo gun sent to a guy. 100 shots so far. Came with cheap scope, new 4500 compressor, single function chromo, and some pellets shipped for price you can’t walk away from. I have some volunteer work this...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    He’s pretty excited. So is daddy… just a little. ;-) We checked crab traps last night barefoot. He’s tough. Was dying for him to say “cold” and he finally did. Presented him with “ camouflage” and he was prettttt happy!

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    Done. Ordered this one. And yes, the orange tie point on back is designed as anchor point. Wish was for kids under 75 or 80 pounds (not 65) but he’s only 50 pounds so still well under. Too bad it’s blue. Oh well. Will wear under outermost garment...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    May have a winner… Has a review that says his 5 year old is small for his age, but that at v smallest setting, the harness works. Our 5 year old tall for his age and average build...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    Does look like there are some full body RC harnesses with designed anchor points on back of harness and higher up. Just need to find a small one. The RC harnesses that b attach to front and closer to body CG just doesn’t seem like a good idea for sitting in a tree stand. I want tether in...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    Yeah. I looked at some of those. They all tether into the mid section and front of torso. Makes sense if facing a rock and line has constant tension. In event of a fall from a sitting / standing position on platform, seems like that set up would whip lash torso (and head) downward. Would...

    Safety harness for 50# child 48.5 inches.

    My five year old wants to join me this year on a deer hunt, so I put up a new two man ladder stand earlier this fall. It’s about 20’ to rail and he needs to be strapped in whole time obviously. Most of the harnesses I’m coming across all look a bit big for him. Anybody have any experience...

    New air rifle….

    Leaning pretty hard towards the Stoeger Ranger. Checks a lot of boxes. Not sure if 250 or 300cc, but dead nuts accuracy With 5 year warranty with regulator. Ugly gun, but whatever. $350 ain’t bad. Don’t like main tank gauge being inline with muzzle…. Just feels creepy, but other than...

    New air rifle….

    Looking pretty hard at the Stoeger XM1 Ranger. It’s a PCP. Would be pest control / fun, and just plinking. It’s a 250cc air tank which should be good for 40 Shots. Thinking about that and an affordable compressor to begin with. Can pick up light carbon high pressure refill tank later...

    New air rifle….

    Thanks. And i don’t think a standard scuba tank even works. Have to buy one that is good to like 4,500 psi, but I could be wrong. If I’m correct then I couldn’t even us a larger dive tank (which i have) to fill the new PCP bottle cuz i think dive tanks stop at 3,000. Again could be wrong...

    New air rifle….

    So i thought i had found a 22 pcp air rifle that fit the budget and came well reviewed. Then research indicated what a PITA the manual pumps are. Looked into bottles and/or compressor and suddenly the required paraphernalia and increased cost made whole proposition less appealing. So looking...

    Refurbish all done…!

    270 wsm Used this 2-3 times with each wrapped in Saran Wrap. Tooth brush sand 100% mineral spirits. The cleaning / strip way easier than finish. I definitely recommend the product pictured.

    Refurbish all done…!

    Shot like a dream. Super happy. Quite a few clicks at 50 yards. Was 4” high after bore site at house with cardboard box and eyeball. Two shots at 50. One shot at 100. Adjusted, and two touching holes inch right and half inch low. I’ll take it! Awesome.

    Boxes come and go. What’s 1/4 moa mean? I couldn’t hit anything today at the city gun range. Just figured out 13,428 allen wrenches that one might with.

    Refurbish all done…!

    A-Bolt II from 2001. Became a truck gun. Got a new scope and decided to give her a face lift. All metal ceracoted. Lighter trigger spring. And I did the wood. Got it bore sighted just now and plan to shoot mid day today. Stock way more work than I had envisioned. I’ll give it 8.5/10. Guess...
