While incredibly strict in many ways... Iran is actually fairly progressive in regards to women compared to some other Islamic countries in other ways.. For example, women in Iran can drive.. they can hold public office (most public offices, but not all).. they can work in pretty much any...

no solids for buff for me... im in the use a quality, tough, expanding bullet camp... like an A-Frame, TSX, TBBC, etc..

my experience has been "it depends".... in situations where we have spotted something, and closed the gap with the vehicle.. typically theres a quick gear check when dismounting (got everything you need to stalk? gun, ammo, rangefinder, or whatever else it is you want with you?).. and then...

I have a 721 in 300 H&H.. its been a very nice rifle.. Ive got a buddy in the market for a 300 mag of some sort (hes not particularly picky.. WM, H&H, PRC, etc are all on the table for him).. he likes my 721... I'll let him know what youve got and see if he has an interest.. and will shoot you...

Welcome! You guys have a sika of mine from an Ireland hunt I did a couple of years ago.. Im super excited to see how it turns out!

I have never hunted deer with a 45 Long Colt.. but I have hunted quite a few hogs and deer with large caliber, slow moving (relatively speaking, compared to most typical centerfire rifle cartridges used for deer like 270, 308, 30-06, etc), heavy projectiles.. My experience with 44 magnum...

I actually prefer doe whitetail for eating.. and our property is overrun with them.. so it doesnt bother me to take them at all.. Dont get me wrong.. if some monster sized buck walks out of the wood line Im going to get excited about it and definitely going to fill my buck tag that day... but if...

theyre not mispronouncing anything.... theyre just speaking Texan... :D

lol.. one of the first things I did when I arrived in Kabul in 2007 was to buy a 250cc Helmand Davidson… I think it cost me $500.. I sold it to the guy that came in as my replacement about 120 days later for the same amount as I paid for it.. I drove that thing all over the place… every time I...

money, interests, and peoples willingness to spend and/or prioritize things they spend on are all relative.. I take myself as an example... I an far from "rich".. but I recognize that I am very well seated at the higher end of the "middle class".. and dont really want for much.. I am also...

I’ve got a couple of different floppy hats I typically take… One is a very old woodland camo boonie that I was issued sometime in the mid 90’s..30 odd years and it’s still going strong.. the other is something of a Tilly knock off.. I’m unsure of the manufacturer.. but I’ve had it maybe 7-8...
