Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Poll: Do you hunt with a round in the chamber?

Boondock, USA.

Can't you read?

Same "unit" I'm sitting in now.....though, we really don't have "units" per se.

Guessin' you missed where I said my AO was none of your damn business?!?

Some things never change, like your frequent and unrelenting idiocy, for example.

Nor do you disappoint us by letting that which matters most solidly sink in.

A laughing stock you are, and a safe bet you'll make an internet career of it.

Continue in your bliss poser, you are golden, it'll never happen to you......

JObama....

You are trying to make your weak point stronger, and cover up the fact that you simply can't hunt.

Clearly evident to all of us who CAN hunt, and who watch you POSE........

Can't lay claim myself to the "difficulty" of killing animals that you seem to conjure up for yourself...because for me, it's ALWAYS been easy, anywhere I hunt.

If that somehow offends you, then, I just don't give a chit.......

The fact that the concept escapes you of gun safety while practicing common sense and visa versa, is telling, as the evidence leaks from your flapping yap at every turn you take.

This childish pissing match you are trying to create to bolster the "difficulty" of your hunt, and I guess by default make mine appear "easy", is going to get you nowhere regarding carrying a rifle in search of a single animal in a single day's time.

Or, in the single instant in time that your weapon unpredictably discharges and splatters your brain matter all over the underbrush........

My 9 year old kid killed his first animal on a one day only hunt that HE led me on, and did it cold chamber......THAT JeffyO trumps anything you can possibly muster in your lame defense of your ample stupidity.

Maybe it's just me, but perhaps you could be a little more obtuse, arrogant and use more foul language to make your point? Doesn't sound like you're really getting into it.....remember, it's the internet.

Gonna speculate, then, that you gets lots of tags and filling them is near-trivially easy. That is most certainly pertinant to the discussion.

If you "can" take the safer route, you are dense not to.

This from a person who makes a living teaching wildlife management and hunting practise to forestry students and guides in Germany and Alaska.

Translation of the last sentence - whenever I work whereever, my counterparts and I are handling rifles. I cringe at the thought of all those chambers hot...

Any one hunt cold in a single shot? I hunt hot as well in my Ruger No.1s. However, I also know how to check my safety. If it's not safe with the safety, it has no business being out on the hunt in the first place.

I think more people would choose otherwise if they studied the mechanics of their weapons and knew what their safeties did - or didn't do. Simply blocking the trigger - as many "safeties" do- is often relatively meaningless.

If you can hunt (not transporting,"handling", etc.) hot with the an extremely high probability (.... not even mentioned in hunter education classes) of not having an AD incident then it is Safe!

But, how can I argue with Safererererer.

I cringe at the thought of anyone handling a gun, they "think" is unloaded, in an unsafe manner.

Technical mountain climbers don't use 1/4" hardware store nylon braid for safety line, yet that would probably be a safer proposition than to trust the safety systems often found on many weapons. Don't pretend that years of gunsmithing or whatever somehow means others shouldn't learn about what it is that they trust their safety to. There is a reason why every hunter/gun safety training program in the country emphasizes the idea of never pointing a weapon at anything you would not be willing to shoot.
