      WTS/WTT: Crossbow (Mission MXB320) for muzzle loader or deer rifle

      Excellent condition, bought in 2014 (post recall), new strings/cables in 2017. No scratches, dents, damage. Shoots crazy accurate, as in don't shoot the same target 2x at 50 yards. The bolts are too expensive to risk 'robin hooding' them, even at 50 yards. I have one to show you... 320 fps...

      Home Defense and Kids...

      We started our son at age 4 1/2 with a BB gun. By 6 he was shooting a .22 rifle and at 7 a .22 hand gun. All with strict supervision of course. Now at age 14, he's very capable of safely handling any of our firearms (although still only with adult supervision). Ditto on the comments above...

      Turkey gun? 870 Rem

      Thanks for the tips. But what vest might you be referring to? These crazy birds walk in on us while deer hunting on a fairly regular basis. I thought I'd just wear my deer hunting clothes, use my deer scents, deer calls, some rattling antlers, etc, and sit in my tree stand. ;-) But on 2nd...

      Turkey gun? 870 Rem

      I'd like to try some turkey hunt this year. I have a Rem 870 12g with a 2.75" field barrel. The barrel just says 'Choke', so I don't really know how much choke it has. The gun was likely made in the '70s. At least it has been in the family since sometime in the 70s. Will this be a suitable...

      Antique gun appraisel?

      1 is cleaned up real nice. Take down is very simple! No go on the shooting though. Neither of these will feed a .22 long (barrel says .22 long). The tip of the bullet doesn't make it out of the mag tube before the elevator starts coming up. It looks as though a slightly shorter bullet...

      Antique gun appraisel?

      Thanks! It is my intention to remove the dust on the outside, and crud on the inside only. And wipe them down with a light layer of gun oil. The 1902 action is very smooth, and I'm sure it's a good shooter. I'll know more about the 1900 after a clean up. I also have a 1930s 'Trapper' .22...

      Antique gun appraisel?

      Wow, thanks a bunch for the insight! I'll clean them up (inside and out) and give a good oil rubdown. Been thinking of building a display with these. Would be a neat conversation piece.

      Antique gun appraisel?

      Ok, my friend Google is always helpful. I actually have 2 of these, one from my father-in-law, 1 from my grandfather. 1900, 2nd model take-down. Action is a little sticky, but probably ok with some cleaning and lube 1902, 2nd model take-down. Action is very smooth, as is, but needs cleaned...

      Antique gun appraisel?

      Thanks. I don't know enough about to even answer your questions. If I posted some pics, would you be able to help pinpoint? Of interest, the model is not on the barrel, rather on the top of the stock below/behind the hammer. Most of the pics I've seen have the model # on the barrel. And...

      Antique gun appraisel?

      Any suggestions where I could take a Winchester 1890 .22 long (octagon barrel) for an appraisal? Or even just send pics. I don't want to sell, just want to know the approx. value for insurance purposes. It was my grandfathers. There's too much variation on GunBroker to get a sense of its...

      WTT: Trade my full size 10/22 stock for your Youth size 10/22 stock?

      Would anyone be interested in trading a regular 10/22 wood stock for a youth stock? I'd like for my son to have the smaller stock. Thanks, Mike, Mooresville

      Deer population control by scalpel

      Free? heck, they could turn it into a profit! Charge $10 per tag, and who wouldn't be happy (except the deer huggers of course).

      Deer population control by scalpel

      A friend mentioned this to me a while back, and I thought he was crazy... Taxpayers doling out too much dough to control deer, critics charge | Fox News Seriously? Only in an American government.

      Propane

      I'm just starting to research buying a propane generator and hooking it up to my 1,000 gal tank. Thus far haven't found the instructions, but I'll keep looking. I'm hoping it works just like running a gas line to my furnace, water heater, etc. And the generator will be inside my detached...
