Outdoor Recreation - December 2007

George Washington, John Hancock, James Madison, and Thomas Jefferson, suddenly reappear on the streets of Washington, DC, today..They look at our progress, and historical preservation, and smile. They go into a cafe to have a cup of tea...James Madison takes the check, for 4 cups of tea, PLUS TAX. As they discuss taxing their tea, they go to the Capitol to see the Constitution. They are searched, and are found to all be carriying "pocket pistols", and are arrested. They are told they don't have permits, and don't have "back ground" checks to see if the government will let them own a gun..While waiting to be arraigned, they hear a DA, and a defense attorney plea bargain a case of Capital Rape down to forced entry and 2nd degree sexual assault, to save the courts the time and expense of a lenghty jury trial..Distraught, Thomas Jefferson starts to light his pipe. He is told it is illegal to smoke here...Their guns are confiscated, they are put on probation. Would they be pleased???

I'm not looking to be a mountain guide, rather I need a recognized certification for single-pitch situations,so that my company's insurance policy will allow me to take my clients cragging. Anyone know any schools that offer that? I'm in Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, but I would obviously be willing to travel for this.

My wife found a Remington 700ADL at Wal-Mart for $300.00. The rifle has a 22 inch barrel, and iron sights, and is chambered for 30-06. She's bought it for my Christmas gift for this year.

Two questions....I intend to put a scope on the rifle, should I get see-through rings so that the iron sights are still available for use, and what scope would you recommend?

I live in East Tennessee, so we've got a fair amount of vegatation in the woods, so I'm probably looking at a maximum of 200 yard shots for a deer. I'd like to find a good quality scope for no more than about $150.00.

So my squad is in a debate over wether or not Hoppe's No. 9 solvent is ok to use regularly on a US Army issue Colt M-4 Carbine.

One guy thinks it will pit the metal (the rest of us already know this is not true), but the real debate is on the effect it will have on the finish on the upper and lower receivers. How often can you use Hoppe's without it stripping the bluing off the rifle?

Also, it says on the bottle not to use it on nickel plated parts. Will it jack up the chrome plated bore?

I'm not twenty-one yet, but I'm still in the process of saving up for a pistol. As soon as I turn twenty-one I plan on getting a concealment permit. What is the best model of Glock pistols for concealment AND adequate stopping power? I have been looking at Glock 22s and 23s because I would prefer a .40 cal round.

You know, the fish?? Articles and links to sites are great, but what I really want are some facts. If you give me a good summary paragraph about shad, that's worth 10 points!

Thanks a lot and no, this isn't homework, it's for a volunteer project about Shad. I'd just like to know more about them.

All these shootings lately.We (rightfully) complain that if a law abiding citizen was armed it could have been prevented.But what would happen if it was?The person who shoots the assailant could be percieved as the assailant in all the chaos and get shot themself by the police.The person could get sued by the "victim"'s family.Sure people would be saved,but what about the person who saved them?I'm not saying I know the answers to these questions,I'm just asking what you think

I would've expected the 1.5-6x42 to be more powerful. However, the 4x38 zooms in further. Overall, which one's better for target practice and hunting? Thanks!

If law-abiding citizens were forced to give up their guns to the government, do you think crime rates in your community would go up, go down, or stay about the same? Go up... Go down...or stay about the same?*

I was just wondering if anybody knows the exact rifle used in the mall shooting. The news said it was an "assualt rifle", but I am just trying to find out if it really was an assualt rifle or something else.
