Damn, why don't those dip weeds ever give me stuff? I could really use a half a case of 5.56. My Bushmaster is too much fun to shoot to not blast through at least 60 rounds in one sitting.

That day will come when dumb fuck tells me I need to give my life style! If hunting is the modern natures way of selection (I spent the morning turkey hunting today) then why can't we shoot stupid morons?

Ok I feel better now. I guess since it is supposed to rain tomorrow I'll be out burning some .45acp ammo. Then spend the afternoon cleaning and oiling the 1911 to prevent rust. Too bad I only took 2 days off from work for hunting. Wednesday is supposed to be nice.

I know this much, It takes me 8 hours to hit new york city, 13 hours to hit NEwton Falls, Ohio(where I grew up). Pretty sure that we could meet some where in between once in a while for a weeked of shooting. I'm up for it. Now we just need some dubass to lower gas prices and we would be very happy

I think we have like 18 deer per sqaure mile dangerous around here in the fall when riding. Its okay but I have loved squirrel hunting since I was a teenager. Other then my bikes I like it for relaxing and getting away from the phone.

My favorite is archery deer hunt, archery bear hunt, archery moose hunt. During the fall the deer are my second worry, The moose will stand in the middle of the road and not move. They are not afraid of anything at all. The only option you have if you can't avoid the moose is to lay the bike down try to slide under it.

I love hunting tree rats with my Ruger 10/22. In my opinion, the best 22 ever produced! I just picked up two 50 round clips for it last Saturday just in case they start up with that Fucking Ban again after the election. I'm thinking of putting on a Fluted heavy barrel and a poly Hogue stock as well and then scope it.

BTW - stock up on firing pins; there is chatter about making one off firing pins that have a signature on them so they can tell whose gun it came from by the shell casing. How would you like an asshole neighbor to pick up some of your shells and drop them off at a crime scene? No thx - I'll stock up on extra firing pins for everything I own and stay Ghost!

Ban again after the election


When the hell are they going to start banning kitchen knifes? Bet you allot more people get stabbed than shot every year. What the hell did Clinton’s ban do to curtail crime? I could rant about this crap all day.

Just remember when guns are banned all together you will stand a better chance of being shot, stabbed, mugged or terrorist bombed. All clinton's ban did to curtail crime was immortalized his name with his white collar nay-sayers in washington. When the ban lifted I bet there was a large order of the high capacity clips, larger than before the ban.

I never got into treerat hunting, tried it a couple of times but never really enjoyed it. I do find them very annoying while bow hunting. Then dumbasses will climb the tree walk within 10 feet of me, realize that I am there and start barking and squealing. Man they are loud at the range. If my arrows weren't carbon then I would have shot the little bastard.

I never went just for them, but there are a few old people around here that will take all that you can give them. Prefer Grouse hunting.

I love grouse hunting with my son and worthless dog. The dog is a lab/newfie that hates water, can't track a bird and never leaves your side when there is a gun shot.

I hunt grouse when I'm camping mostly, I use them as food source that way I don't need to pack in a bunch of meat.

Guns cause crime like twinkeys made Rosie O Donell fat and fucking flys cause garbage. If and when they ban guns you are lookin at Americas most wanted you will be able to locate pictures of me at the post office. I personally think thats why no one has ever had the balls to try to invade this country . The military is stretched thin but the citizens are armed to the teeth. Its not the Royal Guard thats killing US soliders in the liter box its armed citizens. Hedge I have a 10/22 its one of the most sold .22s along with a model 60 marlin in the semi world. I like all guns and the ruger is easy to customize just takes money gun is made so that anyone can work on it change a barrel with a allen wrench trigger with a screw driver my daughter loves hers. California has uped the anty by banning all .22 ammo because of the lead so the rest of the country will soon follow so buy up as much ammo as you can because to date no one makes .22s in a nonlethal material for under $30 for 50 rounds. Back to the hunting thing I would love to get a weekend camping rat bird hunt campfire cookout weekend together and for those that dont hunt hangout eat and be happy. Well back to the work thing .
