    Am I the only one who feels this way?

    I like my Ruger No. 1 because I can work the action with the safety on. I have a couple bolt action rifles were I have to flip the safety to fire in order to cycle the action. I do find it kind of annoying but it has never been a deal breaker on whether I'll buy a gun or not because of it.

    Military and First Responders

    I'm 100% appreciative of any discount. What bothers me, and this is my point with Expertvoice, is that if you say you have a product in stock and that it is available, especially if you send me an email saying it just came back into stock, it should not take 3 months to get it to me and that is...

    Military and First Responders

    Guidefitter is 100% better. However, they don't have as good of a lineup of brands as Expertvoice. Hopefully they will continue to add brands and build out. Expertvoice has become incredibly bad. The only brand that has been consistent on there is Costa Sunglasses. Everything else, might...

    Military and First Responders

    You cannot trust anything Expertvoice says. Especially trying to buy through the Federal Ammunition program. You've got about a 75% chance your order gets canceled. I ordered a scope on 1 September thinking that was plenty of lead time for rifle season. Said the scope would ship in 2-3...

    Suppressor on Hunting Rifle

    If I get another one in the future I am definitely going with the direct thread. This Daniel Defense suppressor with a quick attach muzzle break shifts a good amount if you detach and reattach. I've just left it on and its been fine but I wouldn't buy it again if I had it to do over.

    Suppressor on Hunting Rifle

    I've used my suppressed .308 a few times this year deer hunting. The first thing I figured out is that you cannot zero the rifle with the suppressor attached, detach, reattach it and expect to have the same point of impact. Once you zero it with the suppressor on, leave it on. The whole quick...

    Ruger No 1 in .270 Win. Topped with a Zeiss Victory 3.5-10x50mm. My favorite deer rifle.

    For Veterans, yes, they need the DD-214. For currently serving folks, your .mil email should work. Do not let them tell you that you need to send them a copy of your military ID. Making a copy or picture of your CAC is illegal and bad opsec.

    Military and First Responders

    I use a bunch of these sites. Personally, Guidefitter is much better than expertvoice. Expertvoice will tell you things are in stock and then 6 weeks later you get an email notifying you that the order was canceled. It's happened to me numerous times now. Just not reliable. Guidefitter is...

    New hunting rifle

    270 Win is a great caliber. Haven't met a whitetail yet that it hasn't done the trick on. This is my go to. Single shot isn't for some folks but this thing is so accurate.

    To clean or not to clean

    Go hunt. Personally, I get everything dialed in in August/September and I don't clean rifles until the season is over.

    Problems with Bass Pro Shops/Cabela's

    You don’t remember good service? Bad service? Whether a business is trustworthy or not? This thread is not some ideological crusade. It’s simply a reaction to poor performance and poor service.

    Problems with Bass Pro Shops/Cabela's

    Friend of mine called me all excited because he found the tree stand he wanted on Bass Pro for a great price and it came with free shipping. He called back 4 hours really pissed because his ordered got canceled because Bass Pro didn’t actually have the item in stock like their website said...

    Arkansas public land issue

    So Crawford and Boozman have no say over state funds. If the Governor and the Legislature want to appropriate funds to buy the property, they would still need Congress to authorize the sale. The bottom line is that if Congress does not support the sale, it won't happen. You can file a lawsuit...

    Arkansas public land issue

    Alright, so here is the skinny on this deal: The U of A has not done a good job with this deal and managing the PR side of it. It has gotten out of hand and Congressman Crawford has come out publicly and said he does not support the deal. The whole reason U of A wants to sell the property is...

    Arkansas public land issue

    What this sounds like is that the USG conveyed the property to U of A to be used for certain purposes, agriculture research is what it seems like, but the USG retained a reversionay interest in the property. Normally, the deed reads something like, “to the University of Arkansas to have and hold...

    What pistol caliber?

    If you want to take a pistol hiking then I assume the intent is for personal protection. If you want to hunt with a pistol that’s a whole different scenario. Understand something, if you have to use a pistol for personal protection, from a person or animal, it is going to be a terrifying...
