    Craigs List Woes Part 3

    The reason they say they won't investigate under 100k is because most the time it's a dead end. I followed the rabbit down the hole on a few I took and they end up in non-extraditable countries. The Canadian royal Mounties are very hardcore in pursuit of Internet crime and identification theft. If you all had a clue as to how many people fall for these scams and the Nigerian scams you would understand why the local PD and FBI really don't care. In the end the bank becomes the victim of most electronic fraud. They cover your loss for someone using you credit info, and try to stop payment to where it was used. Most time that is too late, so the bank is the only one out. They don't care about continuing prosecution since they have insurance to cover the loss. It's crazy to think how identities are traded in a ID stock market. They trade them like baseball cards. As well as credit information. Almost all your information unless you are really good is available online one way or another.

    Craigs List Woes Part 3

    I forget I see this all the time, and ic3.gov is the place you report it to unless you fall for it then call the local PD. the key is to not be greedy, and think about things. I haven't seen a new scam in the last 6 years. So yeah this is really old news and people still fall for it. Casey is right. Only do person to person deals on CL. Strangely you say the old bucks are tryin to pass on info, but the young bucks seem to be on top of it :-) seems that most folks I know that fall for it are 40 plus. Now you may make me look through my cases to see who the youngest was. You don't go to jail for cashing the check either. You just have the money for the whole check taken back by the bank. If you already sent the money you get hosed out of the money you sent as well. My favorite was the lady cashing the checks that were returned and wiring the money so she could get her lotto winnings.

    Go to IC3.gov and report it to them. They won't care either, but it beats posting in a hunting forum classified ad section about it.
  4. I don't understand what the hang up is with needing ear plugs for a break. If you shoot anything you need ear plugs that simple. That is the dumbest excuse to write off a break. NO one should be shooting without hearing protection. I learned that the hard way. If you aren't shooting at running game, it's not too big a deal to take 3 seconds and put in some plugs. I know they are heavy and all that though... I think the caliber portion has been covered, but Ill add a nickle. It really depends on the kid as well as the gun. Seems a 243 kicks a lot more now than I remember as a kid. I know a 270 has more recoil than any other gun I shot, mainly because I have a whole one shot with the ruger boat oat stock. The lady hunter in 308 kicks real good compared to the SPS varmint I had. How about some managed recoil loads for practice then slip the full house load in on the hunt. They won't feel the extra bump during the adrenaline dump on the hunt.

    .223 ammo for sale

    Stop showing your communist market ideas by crapping in everyone's ads. This is America and we have a free market. Means you can offer things for whatever price you choose. I think you really need to be banned from posting in the classified ads permanently.

    Eberlestock J107 Dragonfly

    I am looking to sell my dragonfly, it's been on a total of 3 hunts over the last 4 years or so. I downsized to an X2 and it works best for me of the two. So you feel informed. It packed my buck two years ago. The fanny pack plastic clips broke so it has Alice clips now instead. Only issues with it. I'm willing to mail for half of the total shipping cost as in whatever UPS store says it costs, I pay half you pay half. I have a Paypal for payment as gift. Price now at $225.00

    Need some advice on a gun/bino trade

    I'd keep my glass and wait for a better deal. Especially if its an AK and mini 14. Things are calming down, ammo is starting to show back up, don't take a trade at inflated prices.

    35b coyote newyears day

    35b coyote newyears day

    Looks like the "help!" Post is obsolete....I done spent all that time answering on my phone too.

    help!

    Go to PredatorMasters.com and read. DO NOT make a new post, READ the old ones, read the stickies at the top. There are hundreds of pages with the same answers over and over. Chances are your not setting up well. Make sure you can see down wind really well since most dogs are goin to circle that way. Not just come right to the call with wind at their back. Take a partner, seems I always do better at calling when I'm not the only eyes. Sit for 20 minutes minimum. Worst case scenario you hang out long enough a bobcat makes it in. Try mixing up the run vs stop time. Switch sounds in a set. Try to make it dynamic, create a scene with sound. Not saying these work better but it can and if nothing else breaks up listening to jackrabbit distress over and over so you don't shoot yourself. Find what works for your area and don't tell anyone else. That way it keeps working until you wear it out. Then experiment to find the next thing.

    http://www.blm.gov/az/st/en/prog/mining/requirements.html Might help to know if its public land, private land, forest service or BLM. I may be reading it wrong, but I gather a mining claim on public land gives you mining rights as in you're the only one that can dig. Thats why they are mining claims and not land ownership. You have no right to keep folks of the surface. Refer to use and occupancy section in the link above. The paragraph before explains that very few AZ claims include surface rights. OP contact the nearest BLM office and see what they have to say. All claims are recorded with them. I know there is a lot of private land down there. Most the private land down there leaves no doubt about it. So my guess is its a public land claim and they only have rights to what comes out of the ground not what happens on top.

    22 ammo for kids

    Good offer and good on you.

    Eberlestock J107 Dragonfly

    I didn't put him on blast, said if I take $275 it's his first. I was actually going to PM him additional, but got a call. ETA thank you for pointing it out, but i disagree as reading it again I really don't see it as on blast. The "other problem" portion was in jest. Its a fact that I don't need to sell it and I put the ad in today. It was a sincere request that further offers be via PM. The last line says he gets first crack at 275. My reference to 25 bucks was in that I already dropped the price from 325 since posting the ad and was not ready to take an additional 25 off or 50 total the first day. Guess I need sensitivity training. I PM'd both of you now.
