(Continued from Part 2.) 2.3 – Finding Edible Cambium Locally And Harvesting It If we live in an area with a sufficient number of trees, the next step would be to find out which ones have edible cambium.

Can you provide any information on what they mean? A. Apart from the L.C. Smith sidelock shotgun, Hunter Arms Co. also produced less expensive boxlock models, marketed under the Fulton and Hunter names, as well as private-labeled versions of the…
On October 2, Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) announced the Border Lands Conservation Act, a bill that would allow the Department of Homeland Security to enter into cooperative agreements with the Agriculture and Interior secretaries to build roads, install “tactical infrastructure,” and operate aircraft and motorized vehicles on any federal wilderness areas on the U.S. border that lie within a 100-mile radius from that border.

In 2024, TandemKross (TK), best known for its high-quality competition upgrades for rimfire platforms, launched the first ever lower-receiver assembly designed for the rimfire Ruger 10/22 platform.

The trigger group is secured to the serial-numbered receiver using two cross pins that are held in place by setting the…
