    Looking for app

    I hate to be a burden, but I have upgraded my phone(Android). The Duckboats app didn't transfer to my new phone. I didn't see it on the Google Play store. Could you provide a link to its location? Love the forum. Please forgive me, I've got a slide rule mind in a digital world.

    Dumb question

    Several years ago I remember catching an episode of Nature on PBS...the episode dealt with the senses of animals... I remember it stated that waterfowl's eyes have the potential to have the some of the best color vision in the animal kingdom. Conversely, they have poor vision in the dark. This...

    Buying new clothes?

    I need some advice. Earlier this year I lost a lot of hunting equipment in a fire. Thankfully no one was hurt, my Columbia Quad parka, Columbia bibs & waders were a total loss. It has been a while since I've done any serious shopping for clothing, does anyone have any recommendations on the...

    20g Recommendations?

    I've never personally owned a Rem 1100 in 20 ga. 0nly 12gage. I highly recommend one to anyone though. I have heard that the smaller Gage guns really run best if kept clean. I put a light film of Break Free CLP on the magazine tube of my gas guns & they run like a watch. Break Free was designed...

    another vetern waterfowler (gun) will see the marsh again

    I know that Briley makes tubes to take doubles down a gauge. It would make general trap & early season a breeze if ya could use 12 gauge ammo.

    If you were to only own one shotgun

    ...if you've never shot a stack barrel before, I'd suggest you try before you buy.... keep an eye out for inertial systems...you might think you're all set to go while the gun's not gonna fire... they all have their qwerks....nothing wrong with Winchester, Browning's, Mossberg, Berettas or...

    No modern guns here....

    ...I've heard that Briley makes sub-gauge tubes... allowing (modern) 20 gauge to be fired in 12 gauge barrels... I'm sure that they're not cheap,but it can reduce a lot of hassle loading low pressure shells... Unless you're a loony like me,that actually enjoys the reloading process...Glad...

    Moose hunt pictures.

    ...looks like Remington "accellerators"...made in the '70's '80's...but...i thought they only came in 30-06,.308 & 30-30... check cartridge dimensions with a micrometer/ caliper...the .270 is very close (dimensionally)to the '06...don't mix em up...could really ruin a season!

    Air guns

    ...with regards to spring piston air guns,less is more... fast air guns have some funky push-pull reverse recoil thing that can make them difficult to put pellets on the mark...youth model air guns go 800 fps or less(plenty fast enough, about the same speed as# 4 lead shot @ 40 yards)...are...
