Thanks. IIRC those were "Johnny Eagle" rifles. Mine came with a matching Colt SAA and a plastic gun rack with "Buffalo Horns" where you could display both guns. There might have been a knife too. The guns shot fake cartridges and made a sound when you "fired" them. Wish I still had mine, but they were not long-lived.

I used to see 3-4 of these every day on weekends when I worked in cottage country in WI.

I hate trebles. One time as I was trying to remove one, the kid (old enough to behave himself, but a puzzy) screamed and jerked away, and in so doing he impaled MY hand on one of the trebles on the back of the plug... so I had to get myself off the hook before I could get HIM off HIS hook. Pizzed me off somethin' fierce. Since then, I cut off every damn hook on a plug before I attempt to remove the damn thing.


I hear ya doc.

Try taking a barbed treble out of a @king spooky ass German Shepherd's mouth at 2am, woke from a dead sleep with horrible freak the hell out animal noises... only to find your wife's newly acquired beast has gotten into the fishing equipment out in the garage.

Just like you said, I cut all hooks that were not already impaled into flesh before I began working.

He had 2 of 3 hooks on a treble in his upper lip from the inside, the 3rd was exposed to the inside of his mouth and he was trying really hard to snag his tongue on that one. crazy

That large dog lip flesh is very tough and rubbery, anyone that's fleshed the hide off the skull on a coyote, wolf or bear can kind of get the picture.

I cut the 2 penetrated hook ends free from the treble center stem. Then I had what looked like 2 body piercing rings. They had to be pushed through and pulled from the outside of his face, but the sharp curve at the cut ends of the hook where hard to draw through the 1/4" thick rubbery, slobbery flesh attached to huge teeth.

I got it, the dog is fine, but to this day he will not come to me. Won't let me pet him, won't let me give him a doggy treat, he's terrified of me.

So I say, that old tale of the grateful lion with the thorn in the paw... (Androcles and the Lion)

TOTAL BULLSHIT!!


Something clever here.

Gunning coyotes from a chopper.

If you think you are a good shot, using an AR15 shooting a coyote dodging through brush from a chopper will humble you..

In that particular area we flew 3 times and killed over 120 coyotes. smile
