    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    After watching videos by Mr. GunBlue490 and seeing his wonderful pretty woodsy spread in New Hampshire, I have a soft spot in my heart for this state. The countryside has a Norman Rockwell look to it. New Hampshire is a permit-less carry state and it is also a Blue state. Vermont has had some...

    I ordered a new KHAKI Winchester pump for home defense.

    I read about them: Stevens. Not sure about quality on those. The spendy Savage 220 bolt slug gun looks very promising for deer in the woods of shotgun-only jurisdictions.

    I ordered a new KHAKI Winchester pump for home defense.

    PS - Per the video above, the cross-bolt safety on the SXP is in a bit of an awkward location as compared with my Remmy 870 and other pumps. My Mossy 500 has the safety nicely under my thumb which is important if doves come in over MOJO decoys fast. But I normally keep the home defense pump on...

    I ordered a new KHAKI Winchester pump for home defense.

    Yes, this gun comes in 12 or 20. Mine is a 12. https://www.winchesterguns.com/products/shotguns/sxp/current/sxp-dark-earth-defender.html There are special Turkey models in camo as well in 12 or 20...

    I ordered a new KHAKI Winchester pump for home defense.

    I got the gun for home defense and, yes, this cheap Turk-made Winchester does seem to have decent printing on the metal work. The 1990 Mossberg 500 I bought with gloss black anodized finish on the aluminum receiver and a stock with checkered wood is for dove. I do like the novel Earth tone of...

    I ordered a new KHAKI Winchester pump for home defense.

    The Remington 870 Express police pump I bought five years ago second-hand sucks. I'm not impressed by new Mossbergs, Benelli Nova/Super Nova, Charles Daly, Savage Stevens, Iver Johnson, Remington and Iron Horse Firearms. Iron Horse Firearms pump shotguns are weird looking and a bit pricey. I...

    Why might a non-firearm be carried during gun seasons?

    Maybe they carry a bow late November in the deer woods coz they are just gun shy. Ears sensitive to gunfire. Maybe shoulder is recoil sensitive. Not necessarily coz the NICS check came back denied for that expensive, unreliable and inaccurate new-fangled Japan-made Browning BAR they were about...

    Why might a non-firearm be carried during gun seasons?

    Well, maybe I'm a bit a paranoid. Even if a convict were to be in the field with a bow, air gun or muzzle-loader during gun seasons, I should feel relatively safe because I would be only carrying a superior weapon during gun seasons, a GUN. Of course, being that I'm in Oklahoma, I'm also allowed...

    Why might a non-firearm be carried during gun seasons?

    no, just curious to see what others might think, I try to avoid being near felons or people I suspect are felons I was wondering if it might be prudent to stay away from a person with a bow or other non-gun during gun seasons. Having a non-gun during a gun season might be a sign of a criminal...

    Why might a non-firearm be carried during gun seasons?

    Yes, there are a lot of legitimate reasons to use a "non-gun" during seasons guns are allowed provided game laws allow non-guns for hunting during such seasons where guns are also allowed. In Oklahoma, there are no weapon-specific tags for deer, only weapon-specific seasons. Many public areas...

    Why might a non-firearm be carried during gun seasons?

    What questions do you ask yourself if you should see a hunter afield with a bow, muzzle-loader or air gun afield during a gun season? There are some occasions when archery equipment, falcons, air guns and/or muzzle-loaders are allowed during gun seasons. Don't you ever ask yourself, "Is that...

    Questions about hunting bunny rabbits.

    a. Is the cottontail the best-eating species? (I believe swamp rabbits are also true rabbits while jack rabbits are true hares.) b. How can you tell if the rabbit is safe for human consumption? c. Can they be hunted without hounds? d. What kind of guns or other weapons do you like for bunnies...

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    Gun ownership is a 2nd A protection. Fortunately, SSN or even a telephone number doesn't have to be given to buy a gun. They made it just an option. It may or may not speed up the NICS process. A number of states require a social or part of a social to get a CCW. Texas gladly dropped the SSN...

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    Then they ought to require a SSN to even pay cash for alcohol, gaming chips, horse bets, tobacco and new cars if they are worried about deadbeats. Requiring it for hunting licenses is a way for the federal government to track who owns guns. It's a subtle form of gun control. This feel-good crap...

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    It seems like he is using it to monitor every move of American citizens.

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    According to the Social Security Act of 1931, this number is not for general ID purposes. What does buying a hunting/fishing license or driving a car have to do with collecting SS benefits anyway?

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    I just read that in Texas one only has to disclose "last 4" of social on a hunting/fishing license app. Texas dropped the SSN requirement to get a CCW back in 2014. Gladly, SSN is not mandatory for an FFL transfer, but only optional. Owning a gun is a 2nd A right so I suppose the feds can't...

    There are some ban-happy gun/shooting/hunting sites in Ok.

    My smartphone was online through my mobile cellular data connection, not through the ISP/Wi-Fi. They might have some bot forensically analyze typing and make assumptions based on that. Rest assured, if you criticize Oklahoma on Oklahoma forums they are likely to drop a ban hammer on you like a a...

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    This has caused a big stink with some American sportsmen. So, when one puts a social security number down to buy a hunting and/or fishing license as at a sporting goods store, what government agencies or other parties is this information actually shared with? I hate even having to give an SSN to...
