    India , Rogue elephant on the loose

    Shoot, shovel, shut up. Of course the “shovel” component in this case becomes a little problematic :cool:

    Can I save this rare 300wm pre 64 m70 ?

    So, out a grand before you ever start the project that may or may not turn out as you like it, for a rifle you have no emotional attachment to? Hard pass for me. But if that’s a project you’d enjoy, I’ve spent $$ on dumber stunts. :cool:

    Politics

    This one has me in a pickle. I support ICE officers and the job that they are trying to do, and I genuinely abhor the left and their supporters, protesters, vermin, et al. I really WANT TO BE able to look at this and find ANY justification for the deadly force in this case, but based on what...

    Does it matter to you?

    Are you crazy? One of us is. I honestly wouldn’t care if he was carrying a rifle or not on a buffalo hunt. Elephant hunt, yes, but his call on what he carries. I’m skeered of elephants. Irresponsible? Probably. :cool:
