You sound a little paranoid, best stay indoors and ride your couch. But don't doze off or them mean ponies gonna get you, after all nothing more scawy than a night....mare. Lmao

And another reason none of you yahoos will ever be allowed to hunt them, you can't tell the difference between a wild horse and one that just got away from its owner.

The ignorance of many on this thread should not have surprised me. The deer and elk do not compete for the same feed as horses. Tear up the ground and destructive as wild hogs? You can't even compare the two. Hogs root for food and having them on your land like I saw them in east Texas, you'd think an army of drunks bulldozed your farm overnight. Some of you scared of them? Lmao. Your more likely to trip over each others empty beer bottles. Y'all relax.

Nice find. Here's my BT. Was a decent sized buck despite the rack size. Looks like its time to clear off a table.

I don't know, got to have a motor on dat boat, close call we had one of those .22's when I was a kid, beautiful rifle. Begged my dad not to sell it but he wasn't about to listen to a 10 year old.

My dad let me keep a 20ga Win pump I grew up downing birds with. I moved to WA and could buy oc elk tags for hunts with shotguns 16ga. and larger. Made sense to me to sell it. Well I wish I had it back cuz it's been 20 years and my 88 year old father still bitches about me selling it every time the topic of guns comes up.

I'll have to weigh my old .06 Gamemaster complete with scope, stith mounts, sling and full 10 round mag.

Bump for a nice shooter

If anyone whom has Bills book and can help him out, please post pics of his stolen guns.

Correction, just remembered I had two weapons stolen from my cabin in UT: Stevens pocket pistol 12ga Western Fields

M You're right as usual buddy, adios

Sorry for the loss of these very personalized guns. Maybe you can put pics up? I've only had the one pistol stolen and it was heart breaking.

So far it looks like you either sell guns or you dont. Let me add to the list a stolen .44 Ruger

I already handed down to my son, his great grandfather's Savage .22 over 20 gauge. A lot of bunnies, quail and dove bit the dust with that old gun.

When AZ passed the current ccw law, I wanted a carry weapon. Traded my .243 model 88 for a 9mm and cash with a good friend. Beat myself up for years over that trade, had inherited the Winchester. Approached my buddy about that trade last year and he wanted the pistol back, it had belonged to his late brother

Dang, I bet you do!

Barking up the wrong tree, CJ. I'm for the humane marketing and slaughter of horses, cattle, sheep, etc. Humane being the keyword, not all killing is humane. If conservationists want to flip the bill to manage and eventually thru attrition, handle this herd, why oppose it? Let them dart and castrate the stallions, roundup the adoptable ones. Do something rather than nothing. But I won't be joining you on any horse bow hunts.

No, horses do not breed year round. Mares ovulate less than 6 months from March to Oct, but usually only allow a stallion to approach in spring. Given this and an 11 month gestation, they are terribly inefficient at propagating. Horses plowed our fields, pulled our wagons and carried us and our cannons into war. Horses are buried beside our fallen on the battlefield. I'd sooner round up illegals and send them home than harm a single horse unnecessarily.

Have had several close calls for your reading enjoyment: 1.As a kid experimenting with pool chlorine and carbonation. 2. Was being transported os with some aircraft equipment in the 130's fuselage when a hydraulic line pressurized, leaked and shot a nice stream of burning fluid straight into my eyes. 3. A year later was showing a troop the manual start on a generator. Had a loose battery clamp. As he was tightening it, managed to ground the positive terminal. Kaboom. Nowadays I put safety glasses on first thing in the morning.

Outstanding, thanks for sharing

Illegal in the US. We could sell it to the French tho. Don't Forget the Japanese .... Some may recall a racehorse named Ferdinand, winner 1986 KY Derby and Preakness, 1987 Breeders Cup... Went to stand stud in Japan. I think he started shooting blanks, they ate him.

Ttt

They are Heinz57's not Spanish BarbsBut if you have a horse you think is domesticated, just let go his halter. Lol

Slimey politicians have managed to close all but two horse slaughter houses in the U.S. It was simple, they simply defunded meat inspectors at their locations. And they did so with out any input from people in the industry or public debate. No farmers raised horses for the purpose of slaughter. But the slaughter houses provided a means of relief in horse over population that now no longer exists. Closing the meat plants devastated the horse industry. All horses had a base market value by the pound regardless of whether the equine was healthy and trained or was a broken down dink with 3 hooves in the grave and the fourth on a banana peel. But no more thanks to bleeding heart liberals. But what really chaps my hide is how the two remaining slaughter houses can only accept horses from government agencies, like the BLM, NFS or a reputable horse rescue with 501c status. So what is to be done with the hundreds of thousands of unwanted horses? People lose there horse properties and can't find homes for the horses and they end up dumping them where they think they have a shot at surviving. That's how we have arrived at having all these "wild horse herds", unwanted animals that once went to slaughter now have nowhere to go. I've been involved in wild horse adoption, and again it's the government that decides whether an animal is worthy of adoption and few make the cut. So if you are a horse owner and can no longer care for your animal and it is unmarketable, the choices are few. You can legally put them down, even the landfill will take the carcass, or donate a terminal animal to a zoo. Rescues are full, dumping them is a felony. Oh and if you try and catch a wild horse in AZ, technically you are rustling. All around its a bad, bad situation.

Why not?
