Somewhere along the line, the AR-15 has changed from being merely a reliable tool to a status symbol, almost in the same way as today’s pickup trucks. To a degree, both products have become less focused on broad-task effectiveness and more on being hosts for the latest accessories. In many cases, such extras go unused, resulting in a price tag that puts the entire design out of reach of millions of Americans. To that end, FN America has sought to bring its legendary quality and reliability to an AR-15 that lists for just $999, and we believe that it has…

This title might seem a little misleading. It probably ruffles a few feathers, but hear me out. There’s a whole market of deodorants, detergents, and, yes, even mouth spray that promises to fool a big buck’s nose.I’m not saying they don’t work in some capacity or that, if compounded, they might not reduce or your scent. Nor am I suggesting that you should disregard a deer’s nose. It’d be foolish to do so. However, most hunters have limited time, effort, and money to dedicate to deer hunting. Rather than stressing (and spending) over scent control, most of us are better…

In 1975, for the first time in his life, my grandfather, who was a Great Depression era child, splurged and ordered a brand-new vehicle from the factory. It was a 1976 Chevrolet Silverado K20 4×4. (Aside from the color, it looks a lot like the one pictured above.) This piece of machinery was his pride and joy until the day he passed away. Shortly after he picked it up from the dealership, he had a dump bed installed. He wanted it to look stock, and still have the usefulness and functionality of a standard bed, so he hired a fabricator…

During the past 250 years, the United States Marine Corps has admirably defended the liberty of our nation from myriad enemies around the globe—from the “Halls of Montezuma” to the “Shores of Tripoli” and in such well-known campaigns as Belleau Wood, Guadalcanal, Inchon, Khe Sanh and Kabul, just to name a few. However, in the 1920s, the Marines were deployed in a little-known role a lot closer to home. In 1920 and 1921, there was a rash of violent robberies of the U.S. Mail that resulted in the deaths and wounding of some postal employees and the theft of large…

00:00:10 Speaker 1: From Meat Eaters World News headquarters in Bozeman, Montana. This is Cow’s Week in Review with Ryan cow cal I. Here’s Cow. Regular listeners know that right now I’m up in Alaska on a bucket list hunt for grizzly bear. Very excited, but also apprehensive, not just because I hope the hunt goes well, but also because, as I’ve mentioned, if you kill a bear that has been feeding on fish, especially scavenging dead fish, the meat of that bear can be tough to take, smelling wise and tasting wise, just like those rotten fish. Of course,…
