This is what the ATF recommends, however there is a catch 22 as some post offices and post masters will make you give them a letter saying the firearm is not concealable and unloaded, and may even...

This is correct as long as your state allows it. Some states do not and all firearms must go through an FFL. The Federal government has the authority to regulate firearms through interstate travel....
Thanks for the recommendations, I'll hit up Erik for a quote.
I was given a 2 cavity H&G 68452 by someone who had gotten it from a dead uncle. I just recently got into casting so he gave me the moulds that had been sitting in his garage for the last 10 years. ...

I love watching the videos on youtube of people shooting woodchucks. They must be the feral pigs of the north!

Just made my first Form 1 can. I got a custom mould made for a 195gr .279 bullet for my 6.8 spc. I'm looking to start shooting pigs with them come summer/fall. Still have to load test and see if...

I've got about 150lbs of flashing lead to smelt if it will ever stop raining. Didn't rain in Texas for 4 years now it won't stop!

Nice turkeys everyone! I struck out for the 2nd year in a row. Saw a couple of nice Toms but couldn't get them to come in to the decoys. Hopefully I'll have better luck next year!

Very true! I've cleaned lots of pigs over the years and have found several .30 and .22 cast bullets in the hide and fat as well as broken off broadheads from other hunters. You can make what you...
