    catalina hunting...island residence only now

    dont forget about # remove two harbors and the air port! Bring it back to pristine! Then we need to make the entire island a reserve and take ownership from the conservancy! Lets get this island back to how it was 500 years ago like they want right?!

    catalina hunting...island residence only now

    true This hunt stimulated the local economy as we bought food locally, lodging and paid for transportation by a locally owned company.

    Adult-Onset Hunter

    Adult-Onset Hunter

    You'll be hard pressed to beat a tikka rifle. Lot of bang for your buck in the price range. Fine Firearms in la mesa is a great resource for buying guns and ammo, you'll need to run lead free ammo for hunting in California. as for caliber, i'd recommend shootabiltiy over power. I think you'd...
