I know on the oregon trail emigrants packed bacon in barells of bran to keep the fat from melting. They could travel with bacon FOREVER like preserved and cured hams. Today, bacon from the store says it has a shelf life IN THE REFRIGERATOR of about a week. Some people say if you cook the bacon at home before you go it will store for several days in a plastic bag.

Is there something so different about the preparation of modern bacon? I want to take it with me on a really long backpacking trip but I don't want a sack of rotten meat.

I am an avid freshwater angler. I am going to take a trip to the South Carolina coast and wanted to know if anyone tried freshwater type lures in saltwater. Any recommendations on type and colors would be great. Tips would be appreciated too.

I am interested in purchasing a handgun and carrying it on my person. What does PA law state in regards to this? Can I carry it anywhere, provided I follow all regulations? Thanks.

I have a standard Romanian WASR 10. I bought some polymer mags, supposedly high-quality, from AIM surplus. They won't even fit in the rifle! I was told by a customer service agent that some of the importers like Century have to cut-out a part of the magazine well for them to accept hi-cap mags, and many times it's barely enough for metal mags, but that polymer mags won't fit. He said that after a lot of use the well wears down enough to insert polymer mags.

I don't really understand this explanation. Aren't these firearms manufactured for hi-cap mags in the first place, so why would alterations be needed? If it is, why would polymer mags be bigger than metal? Is this explanation true, or were they just trying to get out of refunding my money? If it is true, is there anything a moderately-handy person can do to fix it without damaging my rifle, besides waiting until the thing is ground down enough by use?

Thanks for your help.

have you ever seen a coffee can full of gas get shot with a .223 tracer round. my brother found some tracer rounds for my AR-15. so we decided to shoot the can full of gan. it actually didnt do anything we were disappointed. so we decided to just burn it and then we used some of his gun powder from his reloading kit and filled the can up with that and used electrical tape on it to make it tighter. he shot it and the can blew there was nothing left of it. we also found a couple of pieces of the can in a close by tree and one went in the side of our house. he also got a piece of metal in his leg it wasnt very deep tho so we just taped it up and its all good. has any one ever tried this.

I've been looking for a cc pistol and I've really started liking the "PPK - look." Now I know that Bersa does a knock-off version, but who else makes pistols that have that James Bond feel?

I despise the law for having to be 21 to buy a handgun. If im old enough to vote I want to be old enough to legally purchase, own, and carry concealed, a handgun. Are there any bills, or any signs of any politician hoping to change this law? I think it is a rediculous law.

There wouldn't be so many people breaking gun control laws if these laws werent here to begin with, just thought id say that
