    2023 Fall Squirrel Season...........

    The only wild mushrooms I will pick and eat are morels and chanterelles, pretty hard to go wrong with them and they get washed and cooked first, nothing eaten raw. LOL

    2023 Fall Squirrel Season...........

    I have a free app on my phone called PictureThis that identifies plants. You take a photo and in seconds if will tell you. I have used it for mushrooms before. Those look like chicken of the woods (sulfur shelf), I find them to be rather tough and chewy so don’t eat them. Again, unless positive...

    Making a taller rear sight for the SMR

    Are you going to flame blue that sight or install it on the barrel and blue the whole works at once.

    September 2023 Postal Match Target - Let's Go Bowling!

    I can’t even see the 10 spots so I just held over the bowling ball and guessed. For some reason I thought this was only a 5 shot target so I stopped and went home. After I get my other 5 shots in I’ll post, however bad my score is. LOL

    Kibler Fowler

    This might be a dumb question but since all of his other kits are available in multiple calibers is there any reason to think the Fowler won’t be available in multiple gauges?

    Looks good. You would be a handy man to have around.

    Well for some reason ( I’m not saying anything more) there haven’t been any further incursions that I’m aware of.

    SMR Photos Please

    I would say that Kiblers stocks seem to be above grade so you could probably order fancy maple and be very happy with it. This one was extra fancy maple, aqua fortis and true oil

    PA flintlock late season flintlock hunters

    I’m not a big fan of those large, get 20 guys in a line and make all the noise you can and spook every animal in the area deer drives either. I prefer to get with one guy and take turns quietly sneaking through the thick bedding areas hoping to get a shot at a bedded deer and if not, having a...

    PA flintlock late season flintlock hunters

    I’m really hoping there will be some snow on the ground for the flintlock season. I’ve always enjoyed being in the woods late in winter and just following tracks, whether I’m hunting or not.

    All these battery operated tools available make chains and padlocks useless to a motivated thief. My ladder stand was chained and locked on posted land but still got stolen.

    No problem ETIPP, I understand your position. I’m just sick and tired of people breaking the law and nothing happening to them. Our cities are turning into jungles run by thugs and everyday the politicians make it easier for them and harder for law abiding citizens. I’m personally about at my...

    Did I say it was the ATVs fault? ATVs make it quick and easy for poachers and thieves to get in and get out in a hurry. I called the game warden to report all of these and every time I hear the same response, “we’re having trouble all over the county with ATVs and trespassing”. Maybe the fine...

    CLOSED Single ball bag mold

    I just bought one from Callahan bag molds and it works great.

    I’ve got a piece of posted land I have exclusive hunting rights to. Couple years ago I saw ATV tracks leading right up to where my ladder stand used to be, *******s stole it. Also had someone ride an ATV up to one of my coyote sets and steal whatever was in the trap and had trap. I could see...

    Powder dispenser

    I have a Kibler SMR. I don’t feel like I’m having ignition problems with just three grains of 4F priming. I was just wondering if I was using too little.

    PA flintlock late season flintlock hunters

    I’ve hunted deer in PA for 50 years and I have to say most hunters I see and know are not very serious. Most never touch their rifle until the week before season starts and at that time the rifle ranges are packed with guys that have mixed boxes of ammo, no hearing protection, very poor bench...

    See my post in the “ weird elk hunt “ post. I also can’t stand it when ATV riders ignore the signs and go wherever the hell they feel like. I’m sort of a libertarian but in these cases I think the penalty should be confiscation of the ATV. Same with shooting deer from vehicles at night...
