Funny thing; my pump action shotgun has a way longer barrel than my "sniper" .30-06 wink.gif


I want a shorter barrel because they are easier to transport. Besides, a shotgun is supposed to spread the pellets and the shorter the barrel the better it spreads. The long barrel is better for slugs though, I imagine smile.gif


And just for the record; I´ve hunted for many years and never have I needed to soak myself in urine... tongue.gif

AND - if you love fishing = can't wash your hands with soap before handling the fishing line or bait; or brush your teeth/chew gum/eat peanut butter/or smoke cigarettes before spitting on your bait. Eat a juicy cheeseburger and spit on that worm, it will draw every catfish for miles, rollinglaugh.gif

Deer can smell the human scent for miles, they won't come near your cover if they smell you. You want a ten point buck, have to cover yourself in female deer urine, laugh.gif

Or you can do what most hunters do and spray a decoy or a nearby tree. Spraying yourself directly can get you injured. There was a story warning people a few years back not to spray themselves directly. Apparently some guy sprayed himself down with synthetic doe urine and was attacked and killed by a buck who was unhappy to find a human man where he'd expected a doe.

The part about bathing without any soap and not applying deodorant is good advice though and is very important in order to stay undetected.

But not if you´re planning to go hunt watermelons and cat food tins laugh.gif

Urk! What a visual that story created; and yeah = a buck may look sweet and gentle; but they can be relentless in attacking once they start (like the Unicorn in Oblivion).

We´re off tomorrow to look at the .22 automatic and possibly another gun. Might as well get two while I´m there smile.gif Should the licenses get through, which I have no reason to believe they wouldn´t, I will also stock up on ammo and accessories I´ve been missing for far too long.


Not going to shorten the pump action shotgun, though. I´ve thought a bit more about it and decided against it. Really, the barrel isn´t any longer than on my other shotgun, it´s the exact same length. It´s just that the whole gun is longer.

So I filed up for a .22 magnum Remington 597 semi-auto and am currently waiting to get the approval. In the meantime I watch some hickok45 videos and came across a couple fun ones laugh.gif

Glocking and Balling

Shotgun snow removal

Finally got time to watch these! Boy is he ever good with that basketball! And ... I told you he probably lived on a compound; and he does! laugh.gif

I like how he "cleans his snow" off, rollinglaugh.gif

It´s also kinda fun how the snow muffles the shots. Really neat biggrin.gif


I´d post a picture of the target I´m getting but for some reason it´s not on the website anymore. Still listed as in stock though.

Yes, I was surprised by that. I always thought sound would travel farther in snow, but I was wrong. It does muffle!


Odd that they still list it, but took the photo down. Maybe you can Google it; type in the name and brand with the word "Images" and see if you can pull up something that way?

You going to shoot inside your apartment? Do Ghastley and I have to reiterate all our gun safety tips?

And your neighbors might not just hear it, but feel it too if the bullet goes through the target (or you miss) rollinglaugh.gif

Two guns I would definitely get if only I (apparently) wasn´t such a hard-boiled criminal and thus not allowed to get them: Sig Sauer P220 Elite 10mm and the Heritage Rough Rider 22LR / 22 Magnum , both showcased by Hickok45 smile.gif
