    Steel shot/Broken teeth?

    I think one can get some type of metal detecting device at Cabelas ,or look through a wood working catalog for a wand use to detect nails in wood before running them through a planer,jointer or saw.. Or just put some birds in a backpack and walk through an airport. :)

    I'm Too Young to Die!

    Al, I kind of know the feeling you had.There is a river system my son and I hunt once in a while.There is a small bay in the cattails that the duck seem to love and is shallow enough to walk in.Only problem is,it's also a soft bottom.As long as one keeps moving, you don't start to sink,but stop...

Milwaukee county sheriff David Clark also has...

    Stoeger shotguns

    My other son has a Winchester SX2 and has had zero problems with it. He bought it from a friend that won it as a door prize.His wife shot a SX3 at the last DU show that they had in Oshkosh and she really like that one.But again,kind of out of my budget.

    How many people here use a Stoeger semi-auto for hunting? One of my sons has one and loves it,yet my brother went to a local gun shop to pick up some reloading supplies and inquired about the price of a new one.The guy behind the counter said he would not have one in the store or even take one...

    Flotation for Hummer

    After reading Darren's post and accident report,I think I will feel better using my Hummer if I add some flotation to it.What areas on the Hummer would be a good place for adding flotation.I did stick some foam in the front and rear near the nose and transom I put on.For those who are familiar...

    marine battery question

    Probably a good rule of thumb is " if in doubt,throw it out". As Andy said,better to find out before being on the water. .

    grass/decoy rails

    After I posted my question,I got to thinking that it would be a good idea to make them permanent just for the reason you mentioned.It would probably that a lot of abuse to wear down the rails.I think marine epoxy it is.I will sand the paint off where the rails will mount and screw and glue them...
