Youth Deer Guns, Setup No. 6
Don’t let this gun’s girly label fool you. The Savage Model 11/111 has a lot to offer for any young shooter, male or female.
Youth Deer Guns, Setup No. 5
The Harrington & Richardson Superlight Handi-Rifle Compact is a well-designed fit for the youngest hunters, as well as one that’s simple and safe to use.
Youth Deer Guns, Setup No. 4
Youth Deer Gun, Setup No. 4–Not all deer will walk under your treestand and let you take a poke at 25 yards. Nope, those “other” deer, better known as the mule deer of the western plains, require a much different rig than their skittish cousins of the hardwoods.

I comb through the major newspapers everyday, but rarely do I read through more than the headline, subhead, and first paragraph of anything related to guns when the articles are generated by the primary media outlets. There are just too many things they get wrong and too much bias, and reading through their pieces [...]
Shot Strings, No. 3
So I was cruising through my Facebook page looking for something interesting besides deer kills, and lo and behold, I came across a little gem someone had posted about hunters getting the heave-ho from public hunting grounds. The headline in the post of a U.S. News & World Report link read, “Obama Pushing Shooters Off [...]
Now I’ve Seen Everything
It was just another ordinary day at the office … .
