    Savage DG gun

    I think that’s a good call… you’ll be much happier with it I think for not a whole lot more money… I’ve never met a Ruger rifle I didn’t like… I’m a little partial to them if I’m honest… even though at the moment I don’t own any tigers other than pistols and revolvers…

    Swarovski Z3 3.5-10×42

    ive got one on a Kimber Adirondak in 308.. super lightweight rifle (less than 6lbs loaded with the optic mounted).. its got more recoil than my 300 H&H... probably 200 rounds through the Adirondak at this point.. no issues with the swaro at all.. its been to Africa.. hunted all over TX...

    Savage DG gun

    Its a savage 110... Id guess it is both an accurate and a reliable rifle (just not very pretty).. and would do ok.. the biggest push back you'll likely get from the AH crowd is it is a push feed rifle.. if youre planning on PG only.. I dont see an issue.. get it and have fun if you really...

    What's up with todays' gun shops?

    The internet changed everything. It’s easy for a pawn shop or even an individual owner to figure out the value of even a fairly rare or obscure firearm… I’ve found the best deals at gun shows lately… not because they are a high volume market… but because I intentionally look for stuff that is...

    Politics

    we're saying the same thing... I dont believe an election could/would displace them... the only thing that will see the end of Hamas will be the Palestinian people deciding they no longer want Hamas to be in power.. which will require internal violence.. the Israelis will clearly continue to...

    Politics

    Politics

    Biden said publicly he wouldnt pardon hunter if found guilty.... BUT... that doesnt mean he didnt lie... clearly Joe Biden is a habitual liar.. and doesnt even try to hide it most of the time... but... my guess is he would simply commute the sentence... whatever it is.. hunter remains a felon...

    Politics

    I dont find that Hamas was elected or that they had an agenda to destroy Israel from the beginning surprising or even interesting.. Politics, once you get down to the root of things, is almost always deeply tied to money.... The Iranians funneled a ton of money into Gaza... Hamas looked like a...

    Delta vs United (higher end economy)

    where are you flying out of? honestly, I'd choose just about any international carrier over any US carrier for international travel if Im in economy or premium economy... Qatar, Emirates, even Turkish are all going to treat you better, have better aircraft amenities, etc..
