    Hosking Holsters

    Pretty close to pulling the trigger on a chest holster from Hosking Holsters. Been debating between this one and the Gunfighters Kenai, but I like how I can change the draw angle on the Hosking. The only thing I'm not sure about is the lack of a sweat guard on the Hosking. I'm pretty sure it...

    You are correct. If you elect to not purchase a preference point when you apply for the draw, you cannot go back and buy one during the points only period.

    Best Cellular game cameras?

    I use Black Gate and they seem to work pretty well and have some of the cheaper plans

    Laser on a bear defense gun?

    This is true. I find even the co-witness sights distracting, but I was worried about what would happen if my red dot died. Truth be told, it is difficult to see the front sight through the glass. I've never thought of myself as a "tacticool" person, but I get into these "what if" scenarios...

    Laser on a bear defense gun?

    Sadly, I'm already forced into the custom route because I bought the "OSP" model xdm that has a threaded barrel and suppressor height sights. I also added a Holosun 507c already. Hosking Holsters actually lists the TLR-2 as a option which is sort of what prompted this.

    Laser on a bear defense gun?

    Was looking to get light for my xdm 10mm. I was planning on going with a Streamlight TLR-1 HL when I noticed they make a TLR-2 HL, which looks to be the same thing plus a laser. Besides weight and price, any reason not to get the one with the laser? Anyone else run a laser? I always thought...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    I think MTN BUM is correct as well. I am going to opt out. Then I save my existing points no matter what and can still gain one if I don't draw the combo.

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    Thank you! This is what I was looking for. I did understand that I cannot draw a LE tag, keep old points, and gain a bonus point in the same year. I was just concerned with opting out, not drawing anything, and then still being disqualified from purchasing a point later. They make it...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    You would think so, but I'm guessing you've never worked with Montana FWP. Here is the reply I got from them... with some obviously false information that directly contradicts the regulations. I put the information that is false in red. I've posted the relevent parts of regulations...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    Yeah, I'm guessing this is going to be the way it works, but the regulations do state the following. This sounds like if I don't draw a combo license then I haven't actually "applied" and would be able to purchase a bonus point during the summer. I'm guessing the system is not going to...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    Some additional information. When I select yes for Purchase Bonus Point, it pops up with a message saying I am guaranteed to draw this unit. If I select no, this message does not appear. Does this mean I am not guaranteed to draw if I select no?

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    I understand this. I am mainly asking if I apply for 270, opt of buying a point to try and preserve my existing points, and then do not draw the general combo if I can purchase a bonus point later. Technically, if I don't draw a general combo license, I haven't even applied for the permit, so...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    And I appreciate it. I’m not trying to be rude. I’m just trying to put out enough information so people understand what I’m asking since this is a very specific instance. I am still not 100% sure if it is a guaranteed draw if I elect to opt out of the bonus point program, or if I must opt...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    I am well aware of the difference between preference points and bonus points. Unit 270 specifically has an unlimited quota for elk, so it is a guaranteed draw if you list it as your first choice. It is listed as UNL in the regulations and mentioned in this article here...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    My buddy and I are thinking of applying for unit 270 for elk which is a limited entry unit that is 100% to draw as a first choice. We have 0 preference points so we are still uncertain of whether we will draw the general combo license. I have a couple questions regarding this. 1. If I elect...
