Sometimes we take for granted some of the most obvious things, then when you find out that what you took for granted doesn’t actually exist anyway, it can be terribly disappointing. A lot of people have been asking our resident guide Dwayne Powell of Kissimmee River Hunt & Fish about “free range” game lately, as opposed to fenced in game. The guided hunt market exploded a couple years ago, and this far down the line some people are getting wise to the fact that a lot of guided “hunts” aren’t hunts at all. They make it feel like a hunt, but really what you are shooting are caged animals on very small parcels of land. There are guys selling “open range” hog hunts, turkey hunts, deer hunts, and even alligator hunts, on from 100 down to even 5 acres of land. Around the property is a high fence, and none of the game is native and wild on the property. it has all been deposited, to be caged and killed. On the smaller properties the “guide” will drive around in circles, then take you a feeder you would swear is deep in the woods, but is really only a couple hundred yards from where you started.

From the man who brought you the first open-sourced 3-D printable firearm, now comes the Ghost Gunner, a miniature CNC mill that allows one to readily make AR lower receivers at home.

“Shoot like a girl,” a great introductory shooting program for women that allows them to get bit by the gun bug.

Some time ago in this series we covered network-free GPS map product from Trimble for your Apple and Android phones (they still aren’t selling the Iphone one). That product is basically a memory chip containing maps for whatever state you buy, and the phone uses the GPS chip to help you navigate the map. Many people in the comments of that article said “I’d really prefer a printed topo map in a SHTF situation.” And I agree, but when you look at what you get with that product as compared to printed maps, it is a really great buy. For this follow up I decided to look into MyTopo, the $9.95 – $319 printed version of Trimble’s map product, and WOW, you aren’t going to believe how far modern cartography (map making) has come.

California Gov. Jerry brown approved a bill Tuesday that would give family members the power to seize the firearms of a relative they deem to be a danger to himself/herself or others.

Trashcans in campgrounds across this country are being rudely overturned. Clotheslines across the heartland are being torn from their moorings, and laundry scattered hither and yon. Though late night cable crews struggle in vain to capture images of the culprits, their efforts have been fruitless. Half-assed, I say. It is up to us, the sportsmen of this venerable republic to stand united and bag these unruly bruits. With that noble goal in mind, I present the top 5 guns for hunting Sasquatch.
