    Dove opener weapon of choice.

    I have been using a FAIR Iside in 12g. IC in the left barrel and MOD in the right. We hunt dove in AZ so federal shells in 7.5 lead are my favorites.

    Dove opener weapon of choice.

    I have my great grandpa’s superposed, beautiful guns. Need to send it to a smith to get it overhauled.

    This could get interesting(weather update)

    I remember a year, maybe 2009 or 2010 where parts of Yuma flooded. The power went out at the Desert Grove hotel because the winds knocked a power pole over and I’ve definitely seen my share of opening weekend rain over the years.

    Pet vet? Chocolate Lab

    We’ve use San Carlos Animal Hospital since we got our gsp mix two years ago and we’ve been happy with the care.

    WTF do I do with these?

    318 westley richards. 9.3x62 would be better for ammo though.

    Mule Deer Resources

    Your not kidding, priced like a college textbook. I imagine it’s full of good info though.

    Considering 410 turkey gun

    Not for this season but I like the idea of being able to use a red dot. I could have my 870 receiver drilled and tapped but I don’t know if the rail would allow me to still use the long barrel for wing shooting. Just something I’ve been considering.

    Considering 410 turkey gun

    There’s an article from Ron Spomer in the American Hunter I received last night where he’s using a mossberg 500 bantam youth in 20g as his turkey gun. I might consider something along those lines. I like the idea of a red dot sight. Not as cheap as the h&r but likely superior in just about...

    Good Shot Gun for New Hunter

    I think your recommendations are sound. I do have a few thoughts on 870s however. I used to recommend the 870 express as a starter gun back when you could pick them up at big5 for $350 on sale, it’s how I got mine way back when. It’s a solid gun with lots of aftermarket parts if you want to doll...

    .22 vs .25 air rifle

    I saw this deal post d on another forum. https://hatsanairgunsusa.com/product/edge-vortex-combo/?mc_cid=f2de0548ed&mc_eid=43d6bc099d Now I have a gamo in .177 already, but that was the main reason I was curious. Since CA legalized .177 for turkey it’s less of a concern than it used to be...

    .22 vs .25 air rifle

    Given the choice between the two calibers, what makes a more effective air rifle for hunting? Thinking rabbit and pests. Maybe even turkey in certain situations. Are there major differences in volume if shot where that may be a consideration? My .177 sounds a bit like a quieter nail gun which...

    NWTF Spring Turkey Tune-Up 2023

    I remember that. I got a video of it and you can hardly hear the speaker on it for the rain. Good opportunity to test your rain gear before the season. ;)

    Considering 410 turkey gun

    Steve, I’ve always used 12 for turkey because we were still using lead when I started and it was recommended but I’ve been wondering lately whether I’m overgunned with tss being so effective. 410 tss-focused guns seem popular in the gun mags these days but maybe that’s a marketing fad.

    Considering 410 turkey gun

    With tss being such a game changer for turkey I’m wondering if I really need to be lugging my old 12gauge 870 express hither and yon or if I’d be better served buying a lightweight purpose made turkey gun in 410. The stevens 301 seems like a good solution. Light, short, already had a rail for...

    SCOTUS

    At least it looks like it’s temporary. Fingers crossed.
