Re: Show your Bugs and Critters

I do not know insects from Shinola.
On my iphone8 I have the iNaturalist Seek app.
It can also identify plants and animals.
I aim my camera at the screen of my laptop.

for an AR15 rifle and an AR15 pistol.
From buds I've bought ammunition.

Re: Show your Bugs and Critters

Last night the dogs started barking. Thinking it might be a copperhead I grabbed a walking stick and flashlight. Suddenly the commotion stopped before I could get there. Ginger stood guard over the young opossum. I herded her into the house with some difficulty. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/...

$260! That's my favorite flavor.

As for the G19,
my son-in-law let me shoot the one issued to him by the USSS.
I have to confess, it was smooth and intuitively accurate,
if there is such a thing.

Re: Show your Bugs and Critters

Cattle Egrets have a symbiotic commensalism relationship with cattle. They follow cows around because the cows kick up grasshoppers. The egrets eat the grasshoppers. This does not help or hurt the cows. Although in the long run it does leave more grass for the cows to eat. And with this heat, every ...

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

You really have kicked the hornet's nest. I do not own a pistol that meets all of your requirements. However, I recently acquired a pistol equipped with a red dot. Even if you do not think you want one now a pistol that is red dot ready may be worth considering for the future. So I was curious what ...
