This is not at all accurate. Do you hunt? I've taken shotguns to friends houses, slept over for a 3am departure, carpooled to the lake but... stopped for gas, chow, coffee.. returned back to said friends house, spent the afternoon plucking feathers and returned home sometime before dinner. Not a thought went through my head that I wasn't allowed to do this, and we do it almost every other weekend from now until January.

And right there we have the internet winning post for the month of November!

Howdy, and welcome to the forums. There are several sub forums here that will help square you away. Grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and have a read through them. In the mean time, know that real bbq isn’t cooked in a crockpot, real chili doesn’t have beans, and (I’m told), there isn’t any such thing as Taylor Ham.

Stop in Texas and don't leave.

the sharper image thing is crap. it's binos with a green light.

Flashlights are very budget friendly. If you want to go thermal, and cheap, look at the Seek thermal cams for iphone and Android. It can be used for many things. Ever wonder where all the heat leaks out in the winter? The cold in the summer? Ever wonder just how hot your breaker panel is? ATN has some 4k IR nightvision scopes priced comfortably under $1,000.00. You will have to invest in a $100-$200 IR flashlight, aka illuminator to see out farter. FLIR has a $600 Thermal monocular that is kinda low resolution, but will do what you need it to out to 100yds. It fits in a pocket. Keep in mind, when considering anything that touts zoom, it is digital zoom, so the more you zoom, the more pixelated the image becomes. These things are basically video cameras. The higher the resolution of the detector, the better zoom will be, you also get a wider field of view.

With the current political climate we may find ourselves in. I don't think the ammo shortage is going to get any better. If biden is our president the party is over. His words not mine.

Long-shot, If anyone has one to sell, I am Interested in purchasing a retractable awning - at least 15' wide and extends 11'+. Crank-out or electric. Thanks

You mean like how the Democrat party, the mainstream media and Big Tech are treating America... In and out, in and out, in and out ... until they're well fucked?

Yes I hunt, since 1968, grew up on a farm started (hunting solo) when I was 14, with my dad before that, and a little competition shooting years ago . Also have relatives that are L.E.O. Now I've done the same things that you said in the above post, but things change, and Murphy changed a lot of things we took for granted back then. Used to be all you needed was a hunting licence to transport, not any more. A coworker, older then me was pulled over in the late 1990's during hunting season, no FID in his possession, guns taken, issued a summons (in Hightstown,NJ) now that's 25 years ago. I still have friends that think all you need is a hunting licence. The LEO may not care or look the other way, but the law is what it is. Used to be game wardens were friendly, now their want a be state troopers looking to issue a many tickets as they can. NJ is NOT hunting or gun friendly anymore. "directly to or from" means just that. I don't like any more then you do, I can remember being able to mail order guns (pre 1967) and local hardware stores selling them, no papers needed. Not any more
