      Muzzleloader Reccomendations

      In my years of hunting I have yet to hunt with a muzzleloader. Im looking to change that this year. What would be the muzzleloaders version of a Remington 870? Something cheaper, yet very reliable, common and serviceable? Any brands or models to stay away from? I know next to nothing about them...

      Freezer Cleanouts

      A bit of an odd post but I figured this may be a good place to try! I’ve recently started feeding my dog a raw diet so i’m stocking up as much as possible. If anyone has any meat or scraps that they would be throwing away anytime soon i’d be glad to come pick it up instead of it going to waste...

      New waterfowl gun

      Ready to upgrade to the semi-auto world this year. With staying budget friendly, I am considering a Stoeger m3500 or a Beretta a300. Looking for opinions on either or even other fowl guns around the $800 range. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      Upgrading Crossbows

      So I've been hunting with a Barnett Gamecrusher for the past few years. While I do like it, it is awfully heavy and has a poor scope. Instead of replacing the scope I'm looking at upgrading the whole package and selling the gamecrusher. Anybody have a recommendation for one that's around the...

      Ruger SR45 Cleaning help

      I purchased a used Ruger SR45 not too long ago and I'm having a small issue. Through shooting 100 rounds I've had 5-6 rounds not fire. After ejecting these rounds i examined them and it seems that the indent from the firing pin is not as deep as a fired round. Before I take the gun to a shop i...

      $100 AR optic?

      I need to purchase a sight for my new AR. Being that its my first one I'm not looking to start dumping too much money in it yet. Im thinking about going with a red dot but I'm not positive yet. Any recommendations on a sight for around $100? Its a palmetto state armory 5.56/.223 if that matters any

      Trail cam on public land?

      I can't find anything saying its illegal. Does anyone know if it is or not? I understand if it is allowed that it would be at my own risk but i would rather have a camera taken than deal with DNR. Thanks!

      Used ARs

      So its about time for me to get a new gun :D Im pretty much set on some type of an AR. Only thing is I don't know too much about them other than the reliability and customization factors.
