On the prep side, once skinned and gutted, stick it in the fridge for a week. That will help break the tough collagen fibers down, it makes a difference! That pretty much goes for any game.

I've got one in .22cal. It's a freaking laser. I just haven't really gelled with it. I thought I'd like the stock but I'm not the biggest fan of the hand grip portion. It just doesn't feel right in my hand. If I was a wood worker I'd try and make a new stock for it. I haven't sold mine yet just...

How is it hold sensitive? I thought they were super robust and I don't remember reading that before but my interest in AF is pretty recent so I might have missed that. I'm slowly coming around to the single shot idea...

Don't feel bad. They aren't as beneficial as people think. They don't really control ticks like people claim. The study that claimed that showed they had the largest amount of ticks in their stomachs compared to raccoons, skunks, etc. That led to the researchers extrapolating how many they would...

The Avenger is great for the money. It definitely needs (IMO) a barrel band(preferably 2, or just a wide one that can lock the tubes in place) in addition to the original. I used 2 because I'm kinda rough on stuff. I spent too long grabbing my old Marlin .22 by the barrel and running out the...

Them suckers are tough, age it for a week in the fridge and then cook him low and slow.

As a fellow Illannoyed citizen I will say I've received "stuff" directly from some sources while others required an FFL(think about ordering from the SW USA as opposed to somewhere to the east of us). I have a Notos, a .25cal Avenger, and a .22cal BRK Sniper XR. If the Sniper were a .25 it...

Perfect shot! How's the P35 treating you?

@Ezana4CE - was that an Uncle Mike's or an off brand sling stud? You have me suspiciously eyeing my slings. And just a thought for flip-cap scope cover users. In the motorcycle world we often use hairspray to keep grips from rotating once mounted(it also helps to slide them on). Just spray the...

I'd choose a Quackenbush .458 Outlaw and a hand pump, shoot a deer and call it good....

I know it's not what you're looking for but your statement is correct - not enough pictures So here's what lipstick on a pig looks like.... Definitely nicer than the original and I really like the camo/not camo look

As a 12ga pump action shotgun owner and a Daisy pump action single shot BB gun owner I say,"Hell yeah!!!"

If UPS can get up my icy driveway I should be getting a restock on ammo and a laminated stock for my Avenger. Lipstick on a pig but I couldn't resist.

That looks like tough terrain to hike while hunting! It also looks like a great hunting location. My wife grew up there and always tells me that I'd love to hunt the Ozarks.
