The only thing I've been able to narrow down in my research is that the cylinders only said "US Dragoons" on a "few late production 1st Model revolvers and early production 2nd Model revolvers as well as Third Contract military 1st Dragoon revolvers in the 5000-6500 serial number range."
The...
So this cylinder was in my grandfather's gun safe, and I acquired it after he died almost a decade ago. I know nothing about it, I have reached out to multiple people over the years and never gotten a response back. I can't imagine him keeping something completely worthless locked up (he had a...
I'd say everyone should own a Henry .22 lever rifle. They're super reliable, fun to shoot, and cheap. Their lifetime warranty makes it a nice heirloom rifle if you have kids (as well as a great trainer).
I've not fired any of their big boy rifles, though I really want either a .357 or a 45-70...
Have mild tinnitus, so I've not experienced actual "quiet" in a long time. Used to run a high wattage stereo system in my car when I was younger, and a lot of "forgot my muffs" shooting. Then throw in factory work, running outdoor equipment, my whole life's been noisy. At this point, I'm not...
New guy, born a Hoosier, identified as a Buckeye shortly after for most of my life. Bought 40 acres in Ohio county last winter, so will likely be here a while.
My grandfather was heavily involved with the NMLRA in Friendship, IN when I was growing up, always enjoyed the area when I would camp...
No state park, but even though I'm in the middle of nowhere, I do have a DNR officer living the next road over, and my "neighbor" runs a deer processing station. I better keep an eye out for Bigfoot.
Entitlement? By thinking you should have the right to hunt your own land, that the state isn't paying for, up to the regulated limits, without having to pay the state, after already paying taxes on the land for the entire year to begin with? Ok..
The money isn't the issue, it's the fact I'm not paying the state for their permission to hunt the land I live on (and already pay a fortune to do so). I'd rather just not hunt and let the deer age some more until we can refinance to put my name on the deed.
From what I have read/been told, landowners just need to check in online using the landowner option, no tag required. Then print up a transportation tag to haul to processing.
One would assume that since I already pay "rent", and it is my legal address, and it holds my livestock, that I'd...
We are not married. It is absolutely absurd that even though we share a home, but decided against marriage, the state says I can't hunt my own land without paying them for a license. Land that I help pay for, farm, and maintain, yet just because the bank wouldn't let me add my name to the deed...
Hey all, first time hunting in IN and had a quick question.
The fiancee and I own 40 acres that fall under the agriculture description, so should get to hunt without the licensing costs.. right?
My confusion comes in as to how "ownership" is defined. The property is only in her name, however it...
