00:00:01 Speaker 1: The famous geographic dictum space plus culture equals place is nowhere more vivid than on the high plains of the West, where a succession of human cultures have repeatedly inhabited a setting already changed by previous inhabitants. I’m dan Flor’s and this is the American West, thinking about big history in one Western place. On a blessery gray day in March twenty years ago, Stephen Ranella and I spent an afternoon giving ourselves a tour of a piece of the West that ought to be as famous as Jamestown or Plymouth Rock. Stephen was then working on…
00:00:01 Speaker 1: Welcome to the news show everyone. This week we’re covering how Randall does not understand sports after all. We’re gonna talk about yet another Forest Service management controversy. We’re gonna get into what tracking collars can tell us about bobcats, some things about lost arrow etiquette, more on the Catalina Island mule deer eradication program. And Alaska announces a mountain lion season. Of all things, all they need now are mountain lions. Well that’s not true, because they’ve maybe got a couple mountain lions. But they got a mountain lion season, plus a whole lot more. But…
So you are living in a societal collapse and something breaks. Let’s say that your generator dies. You’ve gotta fix it. The following describes what have I learned about fixing things: I used to go through the repair process in my mind a few hundred times. I would pull the cover by loosening two screws, then unbolt the coil with a socket wrench. Then pull the coil and inspect for a broken winding. But first of all, I must borrow my friend’s socket set. I have learned over the years that the most efficient route is often to just tear…
On April 7, 1902 the Texas Oil Company (Texaco) was formed. — On April 7, 1994, Rwandan Prime Minister Agathe Uwilingiyimana, a moderate Hutu, was assassinated by Hutu soldiers—a day after the deaths of Juvénal Habyarimana, president of Rwanda, and Cyprien Ntaryamira, president of Burundi—as Rwanda entered a period of anarchy and genocidal killings. — April 7th is the birthday of Colonel Bob Denard (born 1929, died October 13, 2007). He had an amazing life as a mercenary, including four attempted coups in the Comoros. The 2011 film Mister Bob is a slightly fictionalized account of his earliest mercenary adventures…
Every good project starts with a simple idea — and sometimes a little curiosity. In this case, the plan is to take a humble Stoeger .410 side-by-side shotgun and turn it into something far more interesting: a .32 H&R Magnum double rifle. The post Turning a .410 Shotgun Into a .32 H&R Double Rifle appeared first on GUNS Magazine. Read the full article here
Armed Citizen® Today A 46-year-old woman near Athens, Ga., reportedly suffered a severely violent assault by her own husband in Athens, Ga., on March 10. During the incident, in which the woman was purportedly punched, choked and raped, she attempted to reach her phone but the man grabbed it away and threw her to the ground again. Eventually, the woman was able to get to a phone and call her son, who arrived shortly thereafter, only to be met by the alleged aggressor, who reportedly pointed a pistol at him. The son drew his own firearm and shot one round,…
I’d been having a back-and-forth with a bird since he flew down from the roost. I would stroke a few whispered yelps on my pot call, and he’d thunder back a response that echoed off the hardwoods. He was working his way toward me, but it was slow going. It was obvious he wanted the hen he thought I was to come to him. He didn’t want to step a single toe into the little clearing where I set up.I set a hen decoy just at the edge of the brush where I sat, hoping it might be enough to…
Canik has made its name in the handgun market, first by offering value and then by combining it with innovation. The company’s micro-compact, striker-fired, polymer-frame Mete MC9 Prime combined full-capacity with a compact overall package that was compensated. New for 2026, Canik is further enhancing the design with the Prime Radian. The Canik Prime Radian combines the features of the Prime pistol introduced last year with a Radian Weapons Afterburner compensator and Ramjet barrel. The new pistol pairs Canik’s 9 mm Prime pistol with a Radian Weapons Afterburner compensator and Ramjet ported barrel. According to Radian, this setup “provides unprecedented…
Most turkey hunters love to watch longbeards put on “the show.” There’s nothing quite like a tom gobbling his head off as he struts all the way to your gun barrel with iridescent feathers gleaming in the sun. Unfortunately, that’s not the case most of the time. Even though I’ll hunt four states and guide half a dozen hunters this year, I might get to see the show one or two times if I’m lucky.In fact, most of the time the show gets canceled. This happens often in the early season when the toms are henned-up and spend the entire…
