I also run a 12.3 12 gauge shotgun on the tractor. I shoot so many rats it's ridiculous. There will be 4-5 hawks following me around. I'll shoot a rat and a hawk will hit it 10 feet from the tractor. It's the most redneck thing you've ever seen.4 points

Dollar for dollar, it’s near impossible to beat an old model 10. My personal favorite to shoot is a pinned and recessed model 18 Smith and Wesson. Pretty much the same gun, except it’s chambered in 22 LR.4 points

Who here shoots a Bettinsoli shotgun? I have a nice Bettinsoli sign that I got from a gun shop. It would look great in someone’s man cave. It is approx 12”x24”. Local pick up. Free.3 points

1. SOLD to jeremiah Made from 4116 SS it's OAL is 10 3/4" with a blade of 6" Walnut handle with finger hole. It's large for a skinner but definitely could be used as one. I was thinking this would made a nice camping knife for meats and veggies. No need to take kitchenware from the missus on a trip if you have this. Comes with leather sheath shown. $75 shipped. Note: It's better if the knife not be stored for long periods in the leather sheath as it can hold moisture. While it is SS it's important to remember that stainless only "stains less". The knife will most likely stain over time. You could wrap the blade in some clear wrap like saran wrap and place it into the sheath if you'd like to store them as one. I recommend food safe mineral oil as a coating when not in use. 2. Made from 4116 SS it's 9 1/2 " long with a 4 3/4" blade. Walnut handle. Has thumb jimping and lanyard hole. $75 shipped.1 point

We call them Redeye Bass, but their real name is Roanoke Bass (Ambloplites Cavifrons). They are only found on three river basins in the world, Roanoke River, Tar River and the Neuse River. They can only be found on the upper reaches of these rivers because they need swift current and gravel beds to spawn. The world record is 2 lbs 10oz. The one in the picture is a young bull, they turn dark during spawning season.1 point

For the longest time the S&W Model 19 has been the .357 for carry. That's exactly what it was designed for. But they do have longevity issues with a steady diet of .357s. That's why most people use .38 Special for target shooting and load .357s for carry. However for range or field use, I think there are much better options. I did a head to head shootout between a 6" Model 19 and a 6" Colt Trooper MK III. The Colt was the clear winner. Not even close. The 6" Model 19 is just too light for serious target work. While I do still have a 2.5" and a 4" Model 19s for carry, I sold the 6". There are just better choices in 6" guns. Actually, my perfect carry .357 is my 3" S&W Model 13. I love that thing!1 point

Hard choice! If it's just a range trip, I'll choose my Colt Diamondback in .22lr. For backpacking or hiking, I'd choose the Colt Trooper MKIII in .357. If I had to wear one for serious 'social' activities, it would be the S&W M1917 .45acp. I'm partial to .45acp if it gets serious, and I can reload with clips very quickly. For just plain sweet-shooting, it's hard to beat the S&W M19-3 6" .357. I typically only fire .38Spl as the M19 is a bit too light for long-term heavy .357 use. But the combination of balance, trigger, and feel is wonderful to me!1 point

It's not the tractor hp but the hp at the pto. The general rule of thumb is 5 PTO hp per foot of rotary cutter. So a 6 footer calls for 30 PTO hp or better. I think a 6 foot would be a little much for anything under a 30 hp @ the pto. I think sticking to a 5 foot would be better on your tractor. Don't forget about the extra weight when moving up in size. A couple of hundred extra pounds hanging on your 3 point.1 point

They are a good one too. Was issued a Model 10 before the Model 64.1 point

+100 on that. In all the years and all the shooting of all the wheel guns, my absolute favorite revolver is the S&W Model 18 .22LR. I give mine full credit for teaching me how to properly shoot a DA revolver. Mine goes along on just about every range trip.1 point

Colt Defender for sale, great little gun. Four mags and holster, box and all that comes with it. Currently has the Kimber recoil assembly installed (easier disassembly). Bought this new a couple of years ago, carried it some but moving on. Would trade for Ruger Blackhawk in 45acp, 5.5" barrel prefered Price drop $8001 point

Out of the box decently smoother than the non-match models. What I was really surprised by, was how much the trigger seemed to get smoother after a 100 or so rounds1 point

I've been shooting and collecting Smith & Wesson revolvers for close to 50 years. IMHO the S&W L-frame revolvers (586/686) is the perfect .357 Magnum. It was designed specifically for the .357. Just the right size and plenty strong enough for the heaviest loads. It uses the K-frame size grip which fits most folks perfectly. Of course S&W does make .357s in both the K and N frame sizes. Both are outstanding revolvers. Just depends on what feels better to you. However, no matter what S&W you choose, I'd look for an older gun. Preferably made before 2000. I hate to admit it, but S&W has gone to Hell in a handbasket in the last 20 years or so. Ain't nothing wrong with getting another Ruger. If you liked your GP-100, get another. Personally, I never cared much for them. Just feels kinda clunky in my hands. However, I dearly love the old Security Six series. I have 4 of these. Great guns about the same size as the S&W K-frames, but much stronger. BTW: there's one for sale in the Classifieds right now. Then there's the Colts. The older ones are great guns. I'm kinda fond of the older Trooper/Lawman series. Of course the Python is at the top of the heap. Can't get better than that. I have no direct experience with the new Colt revolvers, but everything I've read and heard says they're great guns. The draw back is the Colts tend to be kinda pricey. To be completely honest, if I was in the market for a .357 revolver, I'd be looking for a good, used, older gun.1 point

As a guy who has had a couple bad days, I'd suggest any "bad day" kit should focus on stuff for a long walk. 1 - for feet: Comfortable shoes, several pair of socks, moleskin, duct tape, foot powder, extra shoelaces. 2 - hydration: containers w/ at least 3 quarts of water, filter or iodine for more. 3 - clothing: season-appropriate outfit for long walk outdoors, hat, sunblock, and bug spray. 4 - medicine: stuff to treat pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and itching, also a minimal first aid kit and chap stick. 5 - general: TP. Flashlight. Radio. Rope or cord. Multi tool. Map of your area. Compass. Protractor. Money. Some food. An inexpensive general issue assault pack or backpack will normally hold this stuff.1 point
