    Trap shotgun for woman/youth

    Our team uses a lot of SKBs with adjustable butt plates and combs. The auto I see most often is an R300, I believe. My kid is still too small for those, so haven’t paid a ton of attention. Or you could do what we did and put an adjustable butt plate system on an old 870.

    Traxxas cars

    My boys have shared a Rustler vxl 4x4 for years. Younger one is getting his own for his birthday in a couple weeks. They're a lot of fun and it's nice you can actually repair them now a days. Both kids are getting really good at putting together parts lists and making the repairs themselves.

    Needing to buy the wife some binoculars

    I’ve become Swaro snobbish as of late but I really think Leupold BX-4s punch way above their price point. Wife and kids enjoy them.

    New GSP

    Damn, just lost our 12yo. GSP, Boone, yesterday and man, does it hurt. Glad things have come around for you. Hoping this pain passes quickly. So far this has been the hardest dog loss for me. Have had plenty but he was “that dog”. Look forward to seeing updates as your Boone grows.

    Anyone else see this?

    Yup, but I would have ditched the bow.

    410 TSS

    Had my boy practicing with 8’s. The first TSS he ever shot was at a nice Tom. He never noticed the difference in the moment. To me, the recoil is incredibly low but I’ve always approached recoil with my kids very cautiously. I don’t want to create bad habits. That said, my 9yo has been...

    410 TSS

    My boy has taken several birds with Federal TSS 9’s out of his 410. Closest was 35 yds. Furthest was over 50 yds. I did have to stand on that one’s neck for just a bit, but he wasn’t getting back up.

    .22 Pistol Recommendation

    Turns out I need one of those too, despite being unaware of them until now. This thread enabled me to find a nice, used 22/45 at a reasonable price and a suppressor to match. Damn, those things are fun for all. Going to be a real nice mountain grouse gun in my new Cole-tac holster.

    NFA Wait Times

    Silencer shop must send that to your CLEO for you then. It’s a requirement of the form but seems to possibly be an unregulated requirement. That’s why I inquired about possible connections. Wonder if the dots connect between all of those agencies. Guessing they don’t but that doesn’t stop the...

    NFA Wait Times

    It’s a requirement per form 4. I think your answer, answers my question though.

    You’re really missing out 🤣. I have one “friend”. It’s the guy that manages my business’s social media account.
