    They just don't build beautiful hunting guns like they used to.

    And what the hells wrong with painted cabinets?

    Just One

    Rifle would be Browning Abolt in 7 mag Shotgun, 870 Express 12ga Hand gun, 1911. Everything is utilitarian because if I have to grad one of each, crap has hit the fan.

    They just don't build beautiful hunting guns like they used to.

    I’ve got a Browning 1885 Highwall that’s pretty easy to look at. In 7mm magnum, it’s pretty much a do all rifle.

    Irish Setter boots

    I’ve got a pair of 10” Elk Trackers, not as heavy duty as my Kenetreks, but still a good boot. The soles are not as stiff nor is the shaft. Not my go to hunting boot, but wear them quite often.

    Good tent for 3rd season elk CO

    I had a SO Cimerron in Wyoming this year. Got home, sold it and bought another Alaskan Guide 6 man. I like to stand upright and not having my stuff covered in dust and dirt.

    Best Elk Pack

    I tried a EXO, sold it. Have about 6 packs hanging in my gear room. My go to is a Eberlestock F1 tall. Add the bags you want/need. Build it the why YOU want it. I’ve picked up a few bags here and there. That what I think I’ll need, leave the rest at home or in the truck. IMO, you can’t beat a...

    New rifle for deer

    Taken deer with the 243, 25-05, 257 Roberts, 264 and a few others. For some reason I keep looking for “my perfect” deer rifle. I do believe I’ve found it now. A AccuMark in 257 Weatherby. Across a bean field it’s deadly accurate. Might look for a Vanguard in that caliber and be a happy...

    20 gauge 870 slug barrel needed.

    Yep, we have experience too. Girls not daisy. Spent 5 years as a trauma nurse in Houston, went back last year for 5 weeks work in a COVID unit. She can handle herself. We’ll probably do an autopsy and have anatomy training when we field dress it.

    20 gauge 870 slug barrel needed.

    Unfortunately, Illinois is shotgun only. Otherwise, I’ve got the perfect .243 for her.

    20 gauge 870 slug barrel needed.

    I really do appreciate that. She’s really taking an interest in the outdoors this year, camping, fishing and such. Really surprised that’s she’s moved into hunting this fast. She in school in St Louis for CRNA, very demanding classes. Thanks again.

    20 gauge 870 slug barrel needed.

    Youngest daughter called today and she wants to go deer hunting with me this year! That makes my heart happy! Now I’ve got several 12 gauge slug guns, but nothing in 20. Have a youth 870, but need a slug barrel. If someone has one they wouldn’t mind parting with, I’m in the market. Need it...
