Incorrect. Use of an ATV offroad in AK is illegal if it "contributes to water quality degradation, alteration of drainage systems, significant rutting, ground disturbance, or thermal erosion.” See the OP's picture if there is any ambiguity about whether what we're discussing meets this definition.
OK so just to be clear- you'd be totally cool with it if you were hunting somewhere and then someone rolls up and destroys the experience by doing something loud and also illegal? That sounds like animals rights activists and how they feel about legal hunting...
I was actually in the area of the OP's pics when they were taken and can personally vouch for how much of a circus the entire road hunt near Fairbanks was- guys on ATVs ripping across bare tundra, without a care in the world about its legality, discharging firearms from their running ATVs...
Have: 100 Barnes LRX 127 grain, 6.5mm bullets, cash
Want: Lapua, ADG, Peterson 6.5 PRC brass. Even 20 or 30 rounds would be awesome and I would be very extremely appreciative
It truly just depends on the gate agent and TSA personnel you get. They are *supposed* to open and inspect every case with firearms, but when I dropped my case off Thursday flying back from WY to VA, the gate agent called TSA to come check it and I heard them say "Yeah we can't get there, just...

-Arrive 90-120 minutes early for your flight.
-Make sure your firearm is cleared and safe
-Have a hard case with two locks
-Be polite and stick around the baggage check area until your firearm has been inspected and cleared by TSA
-Ensure ammo is in factory boxes
-Make sure you keep...
Spot on here. Just look at all the objectively terrible stuff people are doing as we speak for social media fame... Van Woerkom and dozens of others poaching, the idiot from PSE's recent ad hopping a fence with a nocked broadhead, people who have no idea what they're doing giving dangerously bad...
If anyone has even a few pieces of Lapua or ADG 6.5 PRC brass, I'd be super grateful to take it iff your hands. Have Barnes 6.5mm LRX bullets, all varieties of brass, primers, powder or even Blacktail venison to trade locally in VA. Thanks in advance for any help!
Doing a backpacking trip a few hours south of ANC and bringing my little .22/410 combo for Ptarmigan. Nothing dresses up a Mountain House quite like some fresh tundra chicken!
Always funny to me when I see people post pictures of bou or muskox around the pipelines and say "DOESN"T LOOK LIKE IT BOTHERS THEM AT ALL TO ME!" as if a still photo of an animal is conclusive proof of anything. Not hard to find pictures of game animals standing on roads, but hopefully nobody...
Leaving for a month in Alaska tomorrow, just finished up my training "camp" with a little 5K run. Been lifting basically 3x a week and running 4x a week with the goal of a well distributed combination of strength and endurance.
I have a background in professional endurance athletics and am...
