Letter to US Senator positive deadly poison
Snapshot replied to bonecollector's topic in The Campfire
I am curious to see what happens with this. You know the liberals will certainly blame it on a Right wing extremist. -
My wife finally drew her first archery elk tag 5BN
Snapshot replied to elkslare's topic in Elk Hunting
I have never hunted there, but I know a guy who is religous about applying for that hunt. He has taken some decent bulls, and missed opportunity at bigger. A few years ago 4 of his group had tags, and they came home with 3 bulls. Biggest was 340 ish,, the other 2 were in the 300 class. He showed me some trail cam pics of a couple bulls that would go around 350. It's been a few years since I have talked with him. Don't know what he has harvested since. I am not picky. The first decent 6x6 I could get my sights on would be fine with me. Good luck. Hope to see some of your hunt pics this fall. -

Plenty of tags left for ya! Just kidding about the old fart.....I just turned 51, 10 days ago. Ouch. Those hills just keep getting steeper, and the big "Red S" on my chest has faded considerably over the years.

Happy...Happy Birthday! Here is a special cake to help you celebrate. But since you are an old fart like me, you will need a fire extinguisher to blow out all the candles. Live long and prosper!

Are bipods really worth the extra weight?
Snapshot replied to AZ_SAWBUCK's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Some like them, some don't. I don't like the extra bulk it adds to a rifle. I like to use my tripod, if i have time for the shot. -
It's very unfortunate that three bombs escaped notice,. Fortunately one did not detonate. You would think that those in charge of the security of this country, would have learned something by past events. There will be plenty of "passing the buck", while peoples lives continue to be torn apart.

Threat to Firearms Sales on These Classifieds
Snapshot replied to 40-year-AZ-hunter's topic in Classified Ads
The war of independence, and the civil war were fought with conventional wepaons. Swords, guns, canons, and horses. everyone was on level playing field. If things get much worse, I am all for a revolution against our government. Unfortunately,in todays world, with the weapons our military has, it would be a wholesale slaughter. But it is still better to go down swinging as a wolve, than led to slaughter as a sheep. IMO .....The gun confiscations will come at some point in time. Too many Politicians seem to be walking on the left side of the path. The opposition to those who would take our guns is growing weaker. As far as the current expanded background checks, it will be more of a hassle to sell a gun privately, plus the added cost of a background check at an FFL. All of which will not do one bit of good for which the bill is intended. But what do I know? -
Stuffed bell peppers with venison

It's been a long time since I have made stuffed peppers. Your's sure look delicious. -
Out of respect for what happened, I removed my Obama comment. My apologies.
-
Call my statement what you will . There are those of us that care about the good people of this country, and what happened today,, and there are those that don't. I will let you decide what category of caring Obama falls into. That is your choice. It would be nice to see Obama and DHS focus on why this happened. Who did it. And catch those responsible. Without playing the coverup, and blame game. We lost some good people in Benghazi also. But we all saw how that one played out. I am just as disturbed by these events as anyone.

2 dead, and 23 injured so far. Is there so much hate in the world that a person has to ,maime and murder, innocent people.

Sad indeed. The Boston Marathon is a time honored tradition for runners. We don't know who did it, Muslim Enemies, disturbed individuals? Who knows. I do know that it was an act of cowards.

Nice haul. It's great time of year to be in the mountains.

Nice day to be on the water. Looks like Rosey is picking up a bit.

Wanna have a little fun? Just go to a big construction sight in Arizona, and start yelling..... "La Migra....La Migra"

What would Jack do? To go plastic or to not go plastic......
Snapshot replied to biglakejake's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I think Jack would stick to wood stocked guns. He's just that kinda guy. Nothing like a nice piece of Walnut. I remember when the synthetic stock fad started years ago. I even bought one for my favorite hunting gun after I bashed up the stock with a few falls. I can see the appeal of synthetic. Cheap to manufacture, Impervious to weather, and lightweight. However, being lighter in weight, does not help with magnum calibers, unless you install a muzzle brake. Look at the fine english rifles by makers such as , Holland & Holland, Purdey & Son's, Westley Richards etc. Some of these rifles exceed $100,000.00 in cost, and they use the finest Walnut on the planet, The stock work on these rifles can easily exceed 10 or 20 thousand dollars or more. The burl wood blanks with the most character come from the bottom of the tree. These blanks are becoming harder to get, and are very costly. Circassian walnut, turkish, and the more Generic, California Walnut.. Kilimanjaro Custom Rifles in Montana has developed a "Stealth Laminated" Stock which is very ingenius. Check out there rifles at http://kilimanjarorifles.com/ -
Have a happy birthday, with many fantastic returns.

I box of Federal Premium Hydroshock .38 special +P 129 grain (Box of 20) Price drop $20.00 In Tucson I originally bought these for $28.00 plus tax at 2nd Amendment sports (over priced ammo) they were for a snubnose that was not made for +P ammo. I no longer have that .38, and just want to get rid of these.
