  1. We keep kits around and in all the vehicles. Unfortunately Narcan had to be added. It's not supposed to be kept in a truck, but it's better than nothing.
  2. That makes all 4 kids with a broken bone of some sort. My wife and I have no records of broken bones. I did crack some ribs once, but I didn't report it. Hopefully at 14, this will be the last cast in the house.
  3. I've been looking for a second 5.56 can and that's been fun.
  4. My 5.56 Thunderbeast is awesome. My Cyclone is probably the most accurate 30 cal I have, but it's heavy. I'm happy with my Rugged Radiant and both Q 30 cal cans. They are my work horses. My 9mm Ti-rant is fantastic, but it doesn't get used much. The SSK was my first and it's huge and heavy. My YHM wraith sounds good, but it can't be taken apart. I wouldn't do that over. My 458 Elite iron was a nightmare.
  5. In all fairness, when you get hit..sh#t gets weird. First aid kit usually goes on at least one guys chest rig. Everyone knows who has is, but honestly not everyone knows how to use it. We are just night hunters, but we keep I tight. Two of use a up to speed and the idea we'd both get hit is not likely.
  6. I have 3 in my jeep. Also keep quick clot and 4 sucking chest wound seals. This is all in a first aid kit and its marked as such. Usually we have narcan, but I reserve the right to refuse on that one.
  7. On my last hunt, I walked just under 8 miles at night with 20 lbs of gun, ammo, and tripod through muddy fields. It's a blast, but by 4:30 in the morning...I'm smoked. That kind of hog hunting may or may not be what you want to do. You can hunt with dogs. Guys hunt out of a blind during the day. There are knife and spear hunting trips. High fence hunting. Hog swat will take you around in a heated or cooled van, find the hogs, and you get to use their equipment and ammo. (I've never hunted with them) It's kinda depends on what you want to do. I hunt at night only. I've never even hunting during the day so my experience is zero for day hunting. I have been in a unintentional knife fight with a hog. I do not recommend.
  8. How well does he get around and what kind of hog hunting do you want to do? Some hog hunting involves a bit of walking over bad terrain. Some of it is relatively easy.
  9. It's literally synthetic gas. It will last for years in a sealed container. I can't remember the exact time, but it's like 7-8 years sealed....2 ish sitting in your tank. We looked at getting 100 gal at a time for small generators, but we ran through gas so fast it didn't justify the cost. It's not inexpensive.
  10. You're not wrong, but the the same argument can be made about red dots. The red dots do adjust for light conditions. I've been running thermals on ARs for the last 5 years or so and I'm trying to put a less tech reliant option. In no light the flashlight is a 100% must, however there are different degrees of darkness.
  11. This one backed off for about 200 rounds then stopped. You can see the rolled up edge.
  12. It happens until the barrel shoulder is sufficiently peened. They don't like that dirty little secret, but that's what happens.
  13. The Eotech is a bit boxy, but it probably has the least parallax. I had a $99 pos that was fantastic, but it needed to be turned on manually.
  14. Trijicon mro. Horrible parallax. 18.5 moa at 100 yards. That was the replacement. The original had 18 moa of parallax.
  15. He's one of the best front men ever. My Wife has never experienced a concert where you could have a conversation with the band during the concert. LOL.
