My first "off-road" vehicle was a Baja (71 Beetle) with a Weber and no gearing change. So fun at first but terrible off-road due to the high gearing. My big truck got better gas mileage and it has a heater and a/c. Reminds me of the old saying: "The happiest day in ones life is when he sells his Baja (boat or whatever). The second happiest was when he bought it."

Does it come with a motorlift to get it into a truck?

game bird "pursuit" off-season
Big Tub replied to Big Tub's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I suspected it was not entirely clear in the law for someone to downgrade someone else over it. To be clear, I do not support chasing quail with a dog during nesting season. Also, the snakes are rampant. I just don't like people making up additions to the law. Portraying the situation as an ethics issue or stewardship or sportsmanship, is more appropriate. -
LINK no workie. Also, YOUNGHUNTER ain't so young but looing good! CONGRATS.

game bird "pursuit" off-season
Big Tub posted a topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I was reading some replies to some newbie hunter questions that using birddogs in the field is illegal in off-season. Well, "Show Me" book, chapter and verse in the regulations. Now I agree, especially for Mearns which are not doing that well right now, it is a bad idea; but I want to see it in black and white and not someone's opinion. Following a rather extensive search, I did find something specific that you are not allowed to harass birds on the nest, but could find nothing really pertinent. And for all you "Karens" out there, unless you can provide a reference, don't bother. Feel free to start your own discussion on the merits of not using dogs in the field during off-season. -
THANKS! 28 is still putting out some big rams.

If this was in 460 S&W Mag, I would be there in 2 hours. Alas ...

You old guys have trouble with focus ... this thread is about bashing the scum devils -- although it started off bragging about them. I guess they are not even worth discussing?

Seems like we've had this discussion many times. I agree with thegunsmith2506. 20 ga is so much more prevalent and cheaper. Also, a .410 is an expert's gun and not forgiving. I ended up (30 yrs ago) getting my son this tiny, light, single shot. It kicked pretty good but I reloaded a couple boxes of the lightest load recipes I could find and it didn't take him long at all to get up to the full loads. The single shot taught him to manage the gun properly with the increased safety afforded by a single shot. NOTE: the gun is only good for 1 or 2 seasons due to kid growth and he will want to get to the multiple shot guns as soon as possible. Finally, if you cut down a stock for the first year, be sure to get another full size -- those kids grow really quickly at around 10 yr old.

You can estimate the density of of it and check magnetism to come up some data to make a better guess. Or you could put it in a Scanning Electron Microscope with Energy Dispersive Sprectroscopy.

We need a video of you shooting that with 2 410 magnums at the same time. Be sure to have the volume up.
