Keep us posted on the results, Jim. I think night vision would be a hoot!

Uh oh. I made the assumption the trigger was for an AR, Jim. If not, what's it for? Yes, sir. An old DPMS Sportical. My gunsmith friend likes Hiperfire......but I cant afford one. He mentioned Geissele(sp?) in passing.....so that is what I ordered. I am terribly unaware of most things AR. That will still be a good trigger. Much better than stock!

I have a couple, Jim. I may not be the pickiest guy around when it comes to AR triggers, but I like them every bit as much as the three Geiselles I use in other rifles. I really like my Jard adjustable single-stage, too...great trigger, but requires VERY careful adjustments.

Got it mounted this afternoon. Very easy to get it up and running. Plenty of room on the old DPMS rifle. Sight in was easy too. Fire a couple shots....move crosshairs over to bullet holes. Day performance was fine. I sat up on the hill behind my house for an hour after dinner. It was easy to get used to. So far so good. No blood drawn tonight yet though.....

Wolves mainly.
Well, I think they are coyotes.....but the boy is convinced they are wolves.
Word on the street is that the normal daylight dying rabbit is actually coyote repellant now.
Vocalizations are becoming less effective.
Gonna try nighttime. Shssssh. . Try the woodpecker distress call. Keep the main beam above the horizon. Watch for eyes downwind. Only call when the wind is blowing toward a large downwind opening. Best to do when a sliver of new moon goes down just a bit after dark. The woodpecker distress call works great on foxes for me. Only ever called in one coyote with it.

Turns out that there are actually more freight trains to bark at than coyotes.
