I have switched the safety on my 37 to left hand. There is a small ball bearing that I imagine has been lost on yours. Go to you tube and find a video.

Possibly more items will come up missing with the new USDA structure. We certainly don’t need duplication, no idea if that is the case here. The recent satellite scheduled to be destroyed is also concerning, possibly there are alternates. We have family members with the USDA, there will be...

I have a friend who is an DNR enforcement officer. They said they have never given a ticket for party hunting and it would take an unusual situation to issue one due to it being very difficult to prove. Short of an admission of guilt there isn’t much to go on. But, sportsmanship requires a...

I guess I didn’t intend my comments to have anything to do with party hunting. I assumed following the law was a given.

Odd to have such strong opinions on what other folks do. I will say for me it is the people who make the difference, not the number. I have hunted in a group with one or two others that I didn’t enjoy much. Heck, there have been times I’ve hunted by myself and didn’t enjoy the company. With...

I’ve heard of dogs getting run over while working out with a pickup.

That’s about as good as it gets, good job.

Yeah, us folks down stream got hit hard.

Seems the latest idea is to restrict the sales to within 5 miles of any municipality. However, the roadless rule is being lifted, which I guess is another can of worms, I’m not familiar enough with it.

Remember, these are the places that qualify to be sold, not will be sold. Only about 1% of the land that qualifies would be sold. But still, every acre counts, and once things get going will they go back to the trough ?

All senators vote, contact yours even if you aren’t from one of these states. It’s everyone’s land.

For your information, what the eventual outcome will be is anyone’s guess. Any ground on this map you are familiar with ? https://www.wilderness.org/articles/blog/congress-making-more-250-million-acres-public-lands-available-sale The map is showing 250 million acres, the sale is estimated to...

I hope your day gets better. I admit sometimes humor is hard to convey in the written word. What is it the kids do ? \s ?
