My son likes to use non-techy" gear to hunt with... a Rossi pump and a single action .22. Young eyes are a great thing - he makes head shots with iron sights at 50 yards. He does enjoy plinking with the tacticool stuff, though.

A little later the same morning - he scored a double. The blue tank is a guzzler and it brings in the jacks, though it is there for other game.

He likes the crossdraw holster as it doesn't interfere with the rifle when he's carrying it in his right hand.

On the way back to the paved road from the property, he spotted a jack rabbit in the shade of a manzanita bush in the dip of the dirt road - all you could see was his head and Michael saw his ears twitch. He grabbed my 9422M, put a sneak on it and head shot it at about 50 yards. The "condor-compliant" lead-free .22 mag hollow point did work well, too.

He has a tricked-out "tactical" 10/22 and he loves my AR - just not to hunt with for some reason. He likes old military rifles, too - he wants a Mosin-Nagant to go with the 98 Mauser and 1917 Enfield.

LOL - he saw these pictures and immediately got a haircut....
