Did you end up trying acetone or heat? I don't have any camo shotguns, but I've been wondering how durable the factory camo applications are for future purchases.
I agree with those that vote for the FA if you ever think or worry that you'll need it for serious action (and I think every American should be at least a little worried about that). It is a tool that was designed to be included for dealing with unexpected problems, and it seems silly to me to...
This past year I hiked with a 9mm shield loaded with Buffalo Bore hard casts for 4 legged creatures in CO (just my regular personal protection rounds when training in IN). That was mounted on my pack waist strap. I'm planning to upgrade to .357 or .44 on my chest before I go back into bear...
I carried my 9mm shield on that first trip. I did buy the Buffalo Bore hard cast bullets, but I want to bump up to a .357 or .44 next time. My gear budget had maxed out, and I couldn't afford a new gun for that trip. I do have a raging bull in .44 with a 8+ inch barrel, but that's probably...
Same for me at where I work. I've been looking actively this week and you're right, it has been fun. I haven't seen anyone that is unsuccessfully concealing yet, but I do feel more aware of my surroundings.
Agreed, I love biking for exercise, but I don't try to share the road with cars. I average 20 miles 3-4 times a week during warm months. I find a route from my house using sidewalks and full shoulders to a paved path, or else I drive my truck and park somewhere to start. I think it's just a...
I found when I was training and testing gear for my first elk trip that my IWB holster was covered and rubbed from my waist strap. My solution for the trip was a Safariland OWB holster with positive retention threaded onto my pack waist strap. This worked very well with the only exception being...
+1 I know OP said no budget for a different gun, but the LCR in a pocket holster would be my solution. I'm planning to buy one this year because I find scenarios a couple of times a week where I'm in shorts and no belt. We do a lot of walking in the neighborhood when it's warm out, and this is...
I'd say bust it up unless you know of a specific place to take it, because I feel like there won't be much interest on CL or FB. If you're anything like me, you have quite a few things queued to sell already and that thing will be a HUGE pain to store/move.
