Re: Youth upland shotgun

I have to agree on the Mossy 20g. Just for the fact that it is inexpensive(not cheap), reliable, and it had 2 beads on the barrel that will help start good habits on sight picture. I don't know if any other of the guns mentioned have the 2 beads(one mid barrel and other at the end), but it helped me...

Re: A question about a puppy thing

That is strange. It seems as though it may be a vertigo type thing if seen in a human. I know the ears are what give us balance. I assume in other mammals as well.

Re: Blood Money

One morning the wife let him out and when he didn't come back when she called she went out to find him pointing a robin w...

Re: Blood Money

Tanner, you can't afford a dog... JMO Thanks for looking over my financials asc. Unfortunately we already have a financial planner that we use. That is interesting that you believe if someone doesn't chose to throw $750 a month at a professional trainer that they can't afford a dog. There are proba...
