Guns, Powder & The RTV

TWO GUNS

Senior Member
Should Isay, the RTV is not complete with guns & hunting accessories. EVERYTIME, the machine is run, it has a weapon in it, like many other owners. Which, I use mine 99% of the time for hunting and deer management. Set-up in the RTV, one can carry three full size rifles. Two overhead, and the one in the scabbard behind my head, which is also used as so called storage area for different small items.</p>


Yes, this so called" gun control " thing has really got out of hand. Can remember well, when we were teenagers, it wasn't nothing to have a batch of us young men, get our rifles / shotguns, get on the bicycle or just walk, to where our favorite spots was. Nobody ever said nothing or really give us a second look at young man going down the road with a weapon. And we wasn't always just going hunting, wewould gosomewhere just to plink around with the smaller rifles. When we would go fishing, there was always a rifle or pistol handy, just to shoot snakes, beavers, & nutria rats. Nobody never got hurt, nobody ever got in trouble with the guns. As time went on, and all of the young men started dating young ladies. Just like always, bunch of us would get together like friends do, and just sit in the back of the 'ole trucks, having cookouts,having a good clean time with our dates. It wasn't nothing for us to go to the store and just " pick-up " a few boxes of cartridges, or shells. Now days, they will not hardly sellammunition to young folks. Rifles, pistols, shotguns were ALWAYS in the trucks. Nobody ever thought much about it. It was a way of life.</p>


BUT, nowdays, people would have a stroke, seeing a youngperson walking down the gravel road,riding around at night witha weapon in a vehicle.Wasn't that long ago, I sent my yougest son into a place of business to get us some cartridges toshoot some boar hogs with, looked up, and he was walking back out the store, empty handed, told me that thepeople would not sell him the cartridges for he wasn't 21 yrs old yet. I liked to have flipped out of my truck seat, yes, mad I was, that young man has more responsibilty and knows more about weapons than many folks way, way older than himself, but , after storming into the store, the manager meet me, and explained to me the stores new policy. I did not agree with the policy. I brought my business somewhere else. And told him I was !!!!!! Matter of fact, I told him alot of things. I didn't show no disrespect to him, But I told him how wrong his " big store policy " was very, very wrong !!!!</p>


What happend to our little world ? They are slowly, and steady, trying to bleed our rights away !!!!!</p>

yep the days of a kid going into a store and buying ammo are over.now for some funny stuff. next time you got to a store and by ammo that can be fire from a pistol or a rifle notice that they ask you what kinda gun are you shooting it out of? why well i asked the lady one day and she said the laws say they can't sell pistol ammo without a proper i.d but you can buy rifle ammo with out an i.d if your over 18 that is. so one day i went in to get some .9mm ammo and the guy asked what kinda gun you shooting it out of i told him "a .9mm" lol he still asked if it was a pistol or rifle.lol. as for what i carry when i ride or walk the woods i have a glock17 .9mm with 3 33 round mags.das enough for me .</p>
 
Saying anything much other than what has already been posted here would be like preaching to the choir. Withthe growning anti-gunners out there it isn't any wonder that hunting license sales are way down and the "in town or in city crowd" just wring their hands when Bambi and friends eat all the valuable landscaping around their houses. Just look at the mess in Alaska and ANWR and the no oil drilling policy because we "might" upset a few polar bears. At some point somethings got to give.Remember the Boy Scout Motto....... Be Prepared.</p>
