    Moving to Alaska

    Importing it temporarily is ok as long as it is declared, as are long guns (I wouldn’t risk “assault rifle” style guns as some are ok, and some not). Don’t bring your hand guns across in the truck. Ship those. And frankly, you best check with the ATF regs on exporting ammo etc. ITAR comes...

    First Lite now available via Amazon

    Hmm. Was it a re-seller? My rep made it sound like it was a new thing. According to my wife, I suck at listening though, so who knows?:ROFLMAO:

    First Lite now available via Amazon

    I was on the phone with FL yesterday renewing my Pro Program and the CS rep I was chatting with mentioned they were now selling via Amazon. The gear listed there is apparently going to be more of the older stock (like Cipher), but it’s a great way to get the gear out to more people. I just had...

    New from North Idaho

    What part of Nor-Id? I’m at the border north of Spokane so travel into CDA and Post Falls area regularly. Did a trip through the Saw Tooth’s in October for the first time in years. Idaho has some great spots!

    Hello from BC!

    Welcome from the West Kootenays. I lived in Whistler and Whiterock for most of the past 30 years but moved to the cottage full time a few years ago.

    Has Kryptek fell off the map for clothing?

    I just looked there and it was 98.5% Black Ovis, whatever that is. There was one pair of Kryptic pants.

    Truck Spotter - What’s your pick?

    My kid bought an older Nikon 15-45 at a garage sale for $20 and gave it to me. Same model on fleaBay is running $250-$350. Optics are typically good Japanese Nikon.

    IDFG Investigation into Unit 6 Grizzly Shooting

    Both videos are titled “hunter submitted sub-adult grizzly”. Bear in the first video I would call a black bear, but second video is definitely a grizzly. Which video did F&G say guy could shoot?

    Need a new truck, what’s good?

    Everything is a crap shoot these days. I have 3 Toyotas, and was on the list for a new Landcruiser but have decided to pass. My 2019 Tundra is ok, but not stellar. I’m likely going with a Ford (Bronco Sasquatch) for my next new rig, and keeping my 400,000 old 2003 Sequoia and 595,000 old...

    Need suggestions for general purpose pants

    Fisherhahn is right. It’s unlikely you’ll find one par to do it all. I have FL Corrugates that I use solo down to about 35*, and then add zip off merino longjohns of appropriate weight for when it gets colder. If I’m sitting, a pair of Uncompahgre pants are in my pack once it gets below...

    Poaching fines?

    It’s not a seizure in every case, but if they did, I would presume Budget or Hertz would be coming after you for the replacement cost.

    FNG. Shane from Seattle 🤙🏽

    In my opinion, fair has nothing to do with it. Use whatever tool you can proficiently put animals down quickly and humanely. I’ve taken deer with both rifle and bow. The last rifle deer took one step and dropped. The last bow deer ran 60 yards and lay down to bleed out. I will take rifle...

    Washington draw

    I’m right across the border from 105 and hunt “the fence” regularly. Had a pair of nice WT bucks seek asylum across the line after seeing us last year. Chickens! Good luck to those that got draws!

    Poaching fines?

    What are poaching fines in your state or province? Here in BC they recently went from maximum $575 AP* to $1,495 AP*. The other factor here is the forfeiture of all gear and vehicles used in the offence, so kiss your truck goodbye too. These are the maximum fines though, so not a guarantee...

    Backyard buck

    I’ve got a similar sized WT buck we have “helped” raise from a fawn. He was not at all shy in April, but has since gone mostly nocturnal.

    FNG from Wyoming

    Welcome and congrats on the sheep tag! You in oil and gas industry? Seems logical as a transplant to that area. I was all over the western side of Wyoming again this past year. Saw some new areas. Beautiful state to call home!
