Doesn't suprise me. S&W make some fine pistols and I have had a Sigma for many years, never a FTF.

Why a private ceremony? I'd suspect he would want as much facetime with his voters as possible.

Thanks.

Nice variety of fish you have there. I don't mind snake and had quite a few non-venomous one as pets throughout the years but anything with fangs gets the shovel. That is a big snake.

I'd say that only in the last half century that there have been more advances made in diagnosis and treatment for ADHD, Bipolar and a myriad of others. These ailments aren't imagined and treatments vary from case to case. I venture to surmise that people like Van Gogh and Hemingway may have had different lives had they lived in later times. Pharmaceuticals, in addition to observing behaviors again case by case, and building on what modern medicine and phsychriatric's have taught us is where we are now but there is a long way to go, IMHO. Add the complexities of todays society it really adds another element to the equation. There are side effects no doubt to most meds but we can't lock family away in rubber rooms or turn our backs on folks with PTSD.

Amanda, I tried to send you a message about my thoughts on the message about the new map that pops up on every forum but for some reason you can't receive messages.

The 270 is a fine cartridge but bear in mind that the 300WM has roughly 1000 foot pounds more energy when comparing 150 gr bullets.

Same here. Probably already sold out of ammo.

Thanks, keep up the good work.

Did you have your name on it? I keep a business card in the case for my GPS and P&S Cameras.

I prefer the Remington's for looks and location of the safety. The lighter rifle will kick more and for a hunting rifle in 300 I would look to have the total weight with scope at around 8 to 8 1/2 pounds. I would also shoot 180gr bullets for elk.

What rifle do you have?

Probably the best stuff out there if you really need it and it can be a lifesaver but it is priced out of the reach for the average Joe.

That's how I interpret it but since it is not the case now he will have BATF come up with a procedure probably modeled after what most states do now when you buy through an FFL holder. This will include any and all gun sales both private and retail but I don't see it happening anytime in the near future.

just an fyi, I called the service dog agency they are using (az power paws) and asked about the process for a family to get a dog. Anyone else here can call them and do the same. They do indeed charge for the dogs. They charge the family $6,000 of the estimated $22,000 that it takes to raise and train the dogs. The rest is covered by the organization's fundraising as a non-profit. The family is required to make the $6,000 payment after a fairly lengthy approval process (which includes interviews with family, friends, and doctor) and before the child starts a two week "boot camp" with the dog. During the approval process, the organization requires the child and family to prove the need for the dog and has them comeback about every 6-8 weeks to see how the condition/need has changed. They require the child and family to spend time at the facility to see which dogs are best matched with them. Once they get a dog that seems to be a match, then they do the two week boot camp (mostly to train the child about the dog, since the dog is trained). I also confirmed that this organization is accredited by Assistance Dogs International. here is a link for that: http://www.assistancedogsinternational.org/location/arizona/ Amanda, I don't know where you find the time to run this site nevertheless do the research you do. I'm proud to be a member of CWT. I have a niece who went through this @ 3 years old and is now 32 with two kids. Yeah, she still has the disease and had an insulin pump for a while about 5 years ago so to the rest of the members of CWT all I can say is these are hard times for all of us and as a parent you never think stuff will happen to your child so donate if you can as every nickel helps so tomorrow just drive past Starbucks, Mickie D's or subway and spend that Five Spot on something else. I guaranteeeeee you'll sleep better. PRDATR OUT.

Try the Gun Show at the Fair Grounds in Phoenix this coming weekend.

Yes.

Looks like the Air Park.

It's a G&F thing. They over hired, over expanded and should be referred to as the Bank of G&F. The whole Commission needs to be fired and the department revamped with a new Mission Statement. They are in hock up to their kids ears and we're their bank. I doubt you will ever see any of the Commissioners dare to venture into the field, for many reasons as they have shown they only care about generating revenue and how many tags they can flood into a Unit with the least amount of Hunter Success. First hunt in 36B is a ZOO. You call to talk to Unit Managers and never get a call back and the Tucson Office is the worst. They expect us to just sit back and take it. I say in 2014 AND in 2015 take a break and don't buy a Hunt/Fish License or apply for a tag. Cut them off at the knees. The game animals in the State belong to us not them. Each and every routine encounter with a Unit Manager is like going through the third degree. They are never interested in how you are doing and consistently treat you like some kind of criminal. They have morphed into the "Necessary Evil. I know Lawyers that I have more respect for.

I'll take all the 44 bullets.

It you haven't cooked it yet soak the meat in salt and ice cubes in water. It will draw out most of the blood and 90% of the smell. I do it to all the pigs I take. I usually bone them out in the field and use a 5 gallon bucket. I use sea salt ( non iodized) but any salt would probably be good. I first trim off the fat pieces and put three coffee cups of salt in with the water (1/2 bucket) then I add a bag of ice and the meat and let it soak for 4-6 hours, drain and do it again stirring the meat around every hour or so and replenishing the ice as needed. Congrats on the pig. Thatcher is a great place for sure.

He has a bigger agenda than Piers. Which is a darn good thing.

I have a T3 Lite I 308 and it is a joy to carry.
