  1. Considering the fact Uptown's past predictions were all wrong, I think it's safe to say the future will be the exact opposite of all of his negative predictions. He has not been correct once so far. Why expect anything to change?
  2. This is like asking what would happen if we killed all the rats in NYC. Good things. Good things would happen. I long for the days when there were no coyote in the Catskills.
  3. I thought someone here might know. Kwanzaa 2016 (Leap Year) Kwanzaa begins: Monday, December 26, 2016 Kwanzaa ends: Sunday, January 01, 2017 Happy Kwansaa to all the people on here who celebrate it.
  4. How many hunters approach you to hunt anything on your properties?
  5. But they do keep the population level. How bad would it be if they didn't have a year round season in those states?
  6. Doc, hunting coyotes in the spring and summer is great fun when you hunt at night. The air is cool, the bugs are not as bad, you can use insect repellent, camo isn't even required and the shooting gives you good practice. They are much easier to hunt at night too. I think it would be great to be able to hunt during the spring and summer at night. I also think it would catch on and do a lot to keep them from getting to be a big problem in many areas. If people will do what they must to shoot woodchuck during the day in the summer, they would do what they need to in order to hunt coyote at night in summer too. As far as facts go, this statement above is interesting. " There is NO ecological benefit " They may be hard to control, but they change the balance of the ecological environment when they invade any area where they have never been before, at least in recent times, just like an invasive species does. So to say there would be no benefit is not factual. Of course some may have different opinions on what a benefit is.
  7. When I open my wallet, this is what you see inside. Yet, I don't go around asking others to be like me. I don't look down on those that won't. But I do help those who want to follow the same path. I'm walking the walk. It's who I am. I don't expect any of the leftists here to respect any of it though.
  8. I volunteer to this day and have risked my life a number of times doing it. Nothing wrong with dying, if it's a good death! I'm part of the .05% in this country that will risk everything for my fellow human beings.
  9. Funny how only leftists think they need sanctuary. How many attacks have there been in your town lately? I seem to recall quite a few attacks on Trump supporters by leftists though. What's the clinical name for those people? Haters?
  10. Reminds me of the guy who shot at a deer, missed, and had his 300 WM bullet hit a trailer with a toddler inside. He killed the poor child. It wasn't intentional, but he broke a lot of laws designed to prevent something like that from happening. He went to jail. I think it was near Wolf Lake about 3 years ago. He was from the city.
  11. Congratulations and welcome to the club. My only grandchild is a beautiful little girl. Not sure she will choose to enjoy the outdoors like I do. My 2 daughters are not fans and my son only likes to shoot at the range. So, I'll have to wait and see. Either way, this little one is my pride and joy.
  12. Well, considering how badly Obama's reign has damaged respect for the Rule of Law in America, I'm not surprised by the claims. Too many people have no clue what the ramifications of letting illegals stay will be. After getting the facts regarding all of the ramifications of their opinion to allow illegals to stay, which is what Trump will be doing, I think you will see these numbers change faster than Hillary's poll numbers did. Give it time. Repairing the damage done to the American mindset by all of Obama's leftist propaganda will take time.
  13. Here's the real problem. Let's say you have one of your 30 round M1 mags in your car when you get pulled over. The cop finds it. You WILL be arrested for having it. Now you get to pay a lawyer tons of money to go to court and fight for your "right" to own it, hoping a judge agrees with you. If you win, you're out thousands of dollars. If you lose you go to jail for a long time and your right to own ANY firearm is now gone. The SAFE Act was purposely written with these types of "Catch 22's" so gun owners would comply with anything the government says is illegal. It's supposed to be so confusing, nobody will want to own any type of black rifle, for fear of legal government persecution. I don't think your M1 mags are legal, but even if they are, you better not push the issue without a lawyer willing to defend you for free. This meme sums it up perfectly:
  14. According to the FFL I use, and the Delaware County Sheriff's office, any magazine over 10 rounds is illegal under the SAFE Act. Kahr Arms is currently making an M1 Carbine that can accept large cap mags too. If what you say is true chefhunter86, I'd like a link that proves it.
  15. A true defender of the Rule of Law. That's why the Left hates him. That's why Obama hates him. You can't trust anyone that hates him.
  16. Those who support tyranny never give up, no matter how many times they get slapped.
  17. I have a custom M1 carbine with a full length Fajen Mannlicher stock on it. For NY state you're limited to a 10 rd mag maximum and a 5 round for deer hunting. I have a few of both. Years ago I used it to hunt deer and took a few doe with it. The longest shot I ever took was 50 yards, most were 25 yards or less. I always used 110 grain soft points that I hand loaded to max velocity for the rifle. It did the job just fine every time. It's accurate enough to get a 4" group at 50 yards with the Williams peep sight and front ramp that was added when customized. It's light and fast handling, but all the shots I took were at standing game. No running shots at deer, as the shot has to be a heart or lung shot to be sure of a kill. It's not a rifle that makes a general purpose deer rifle. It's a specialized tool for close range deer shooting at stationary targets. I think it first became popular for deer when guys assumed a semi-auto would be good for shots at running deer in thick cover. When that proved incorrect, it lost favor fast. It does have very light recoil and muzzle blast in it's favor though. The Ruger Mini 30 is a good deer rifle with power about equal to a .30-30 that can use pointed bullets. Ruger does warn against using any non-commercial ammo in it, especially steel cased stuff, for any reason. It's also a lot heavier than your M1 carbine and many other deer rifles too. I had one for a while but gave it to my son recently. I never hunted with it much, as I found it too heavy for the mountains. I will never part with the M1 Carbine though.
  18. Uptown's opinions are formed by hatred. Facts play no role in his opinions.
  19. It's time to ignore anything Uptown posts. He's completely lost his mind and is blinded by hate. He's a hater, period. Nothing of substance will ever be posted from him again.
  20. In the last 10 years I've taken two Bobcat on my land in Delaware County.
  21. White American men aren't angry at all. They just decided the country needed to go back to following the Constitution and Rule of Law. If any political party was in bed with the Russians, it was the Democrats and the current corrupt Administration. Remember when Obama promised Putin he would be more flexible after his re-election? How about Hillary's RESET meeting and making a deal with Putin for uranium? Look at all the boot licking Kerry did as Sec. of State. If the Russians hacked into the US system, it wasn't to help Trump. It was because Hillary's private server gave them the power to do it. And if they were trying to influence the election, why did the Democrats wait until Trump won to investigate it? Because they thought it was being done to help Hillary win, that's why.
  22. The Left is creating all sorts of fake issues to persuade their lemmings Trump's election was stolen. All I got to say is, if Trump is barred from the Presidency by any means, things are going to get real ugly, real fast. I for one will support any action to resist a leftist coup!!
  23. Damn!!! I hate photoshop. That should be outlawed.
