I've got a 1934 MN 91/30. I forget all the particulars. I paid $172 for it about 5 years ago. I know that is a lot for one, but it looked brand new. I got it from a collector and it had been well...

The first gun my parents ever gave me was an H&R Topper in .410. I've had that gun for 26 years now. It has never failed me yet.

The only thing "I" cooked was a couple of hams for Christmas dinner. And I smoked them with a blend of oak and hickory wood.

I'm an Assistant Scoutmaster for one of my local Boy Scout troops myself. My family is getting ready to build a cabin on some land that my father left me. We'll be building it ourselves and as much...

Thanks for the link. I'm an Asst. Scoutmaster and I collect Scout stuff. There are a few books there that I don't have yet. I'm in charge of helping the boys in our troop plan and run their outdoor...

While I prefer Survivorman over Man vs Wild, I do like watching the show. Now, as far as the knife goes, I do have the BG folding sheath knife from Gerber. I have long liked Gerber products and so...

Being Prepared is what the Boy Scout Motto is and it's what I teach my Scouts. I teach them to be prepared but I also teach them to make due with whatever they have (if for some reason, they become...

I have used off-brand cast iron in the past, but I only use Lodge now. IMHO, it is the best. When I buy Lodge, I know it's good, with the off-brand you might get a good one and you might not.

I've got a Coleman stove just like that one that has the propane adapter. It works great. The stove is a very simple design. My parents had it before they had me...40 years ago. We've never had a...

When I was in the Army, I HATED busting (and having to fix) the track on tracked vehicles. It IS heavy.

I run a newspaper route for my state-wide daily newspaper. I'm constantly having flats. I put a little over 1,000 miles a week on my car. I carry the basic tire plug kit, an inverter and a small air...

I agree on calling the police...press charges. A restraining order is fine, but that piece of paper isn't much "real" defense against a stalker. But, at least it gives you a better legal footing if...

Yes, you should meet her. Believe me when I say (from experience) that it's better to take the chance. I was kinda in the same situation. Basically, my oldest (she's 18 now) was "legally" kidnapped...

I don't know if I'll be able to survive the end of the world or not. The only thing I can do is to be as ready as I can be and hope for the best. The true survivors (besides the stupid lucky ones)...

Today is my son's 14th birthday. Today, I'm showing him how to bake in a dutch oven, in the firepit in the backyard. I'm baking him his birthday cake and I'm making a Jello cake. For those of you who...

The only thing that I've really done this week is to break out my bow and practice with it. Bow deer season opens here tomorrow and runs until Feb. 28. Closer to muzzleloader and gun season, I'll be...

I got home from work this morning and decided to break into (rotate) some of my stores. I cooked up a big pan of Spam (hickory smoke flavor) and eggs in my trusty Lodge cast-iron skillet. While I did...

We've got four dogs in the house that are a pretty good burglar alarm. If I need it, I've got a 9mm close by (usually in a holster on my belt). If someone breaks into my home, they're probably not...

Like the OP already said...most places are too crowded with people, Rangers and their rules. I haven't spent a year there, at one time but I've got a little land that I go "survival camping" on for a...

Depends on what I'm in the mood for on the particular trip. Lots of times, I wear a brand of water shoes called "Rock Socks." They have steel mesh in the soles and are real good on rocks. They dry...

I'll guess it's # 13, but then, I just like green.

Here's me on a recent (June 2010) 50-mile canoe trip with my Boy Scout troop on the Buffalo National River in Arkansas.

I'm making a big batch of beef jerky today and tomorrow. I'm using both a dehydrator and my smoker. Next week, I'm taking the boys in my Boy Scout troop on a 50-mile canoe trip up on the Buffalo...

I've had recurve's and compounds and would love to get a longbow. My current bow is a Bear "Lights Out" compound. It's small, light and very accurate. I really enjoy target shooting and hunting with...

Currently, my only pistol is a Ruger P94 that I've had since '95. Knock on wood, it has never jammed or given me any problems and I have fired a LOT of rounds through it.
