Yep, sorry. I have the regular 365 and an XL. To me the grip length is what matters over slide length for concealability.

I'm planning on swapping to a P365X to see if this solves my issues.


It will help some with the 10 round - flush fit magazines for pocket or appendix. I don't think it will solve the comfort issues. You'll want the 12-round magazines for shootability.

This is the way for me as well.

With any meat sometimes it is just the cut of meat and not your method
Huntfield Kennels - can't say enough good things about their dogs.

re: Tactacam Pro 3.0

I have two Pro 3.0 I purchased in October that are on feeders, one camera has 9,000 pictures and the other has about 4,000 all taken on the solar panel power. I have only adjusted the delay between photos and never adjusted the upload (they instantly upload). They do not have the lipo battery packs.

So good so far, hope I don't jinx myself.
We shot everything and ended back at the 130 partitions, about perfect for southern whitetail.
The focal plane and reticle will probably help you pick the scope. I just went through this for by AR Grendel. I didn't want the complicated Christmas tree reticles and wanted to keep it simple. I ended up with the Vortex Viper HD with the BDC reticle. Super clean reticle and gets me hold points to 400.
I have the Etekcity Camping Lanterns from Amazon if you like the AA power source.

For you guys that have a dog from Huntfield, are they strictly house dogs or do they hunt? Looking into getting one to do both, but more for blood trailing/shed hunting than anything waterfowl related. Seems they have the temperament I want but looking to get real world experiences y'all have had with them with the family and in the field


Our Huntfield lab is both a duck dog and a family dog. She has the drive to turn it on when retrieving and off when around the house. Super easy to train and not the super high drive level that's hard to control I've seen with other puppies. The smartest dogs I have ever owned. I like the size of the British labs for in the house (~55 pounds), sure is easier than a 100-pound dog in your house. If still on the fence, go visit their kennel.

Our female is from Huntfield and I second everything stated. I thought our previous lab was chill, but this one is even more laid back.

re: Sig P365 vs FN Reflex

Posted by laduckkiller on 7/24/24 at 8:32 am to
I have a 509 and unless they've changed, the FN triggers leave a lot to be desired compared to the 365.
We talked with the doctor and he basically punted the ball back to us to make the choice. His response "short-term use of creatine and athletes are actively working out has not been shown to cause any major issues I am aware of. He should continue to hydrate well. Creatinine should not be taken when he is not active or well-hydrated. However overall this is an over-the-counter medication that is truly a parental decision"

As others have said supplements are not regulated, so I would be careful where you buy the creatine.

"Although reports have indicated that short-term use of creatine is generally safe for adults, the American Academy of Pediatrics states that few studies have looked at the long-term safety of creatine use by teens. Doctors and most medical societies usually recommend creatine be used only by athletes over 18 years old."

We said no to our 15-year old son.
www.gunsinternational.com - a little quirky to search, but a good option once you've identified make/model.
Of course, their candidate always has better work ethnic than your candidate. Likewise, their candidate will also vote the way the member wants as well. :lol:

You'll likely hear for years how their candidate would have gotten more work done than yours and he has a whole fleet of bulldozers, backhoes, helicopters, and tractors. You don't really know people until they are asked to show up.

We really have two groups in our club, so the waiting list regardless of equipment is a must. Members get their candidates selected in order. It keeps voting on issues fairly balanced.

Regarding fines for not attending work days mentioned... that just means we have money in our account but not enough to get the work paid for. Lots of folks would rather pay a fine than attend a work day. We rarely schedule them anymore opting for each member to report what days he worked.

I’m curious is anyone here has ever been asked to show their tax stamp by LE or a range master or anyone else


No, as I understand only the Attorney General or an ATF agent has a legal right to see your tax stamp (depending on state laws). Not sure any other LE has a legal right to ask, but if they're asking it's probably in your best interest to provide (assuming you have nothing to hide).

Now, a private range does not have a legal right to see your stamp; however, they have the right to ask you to leave if you don't comply with their rules if asked. Choose to take your business elsewhere.
Otto Pro NoizeBarrier is what I purchased. I am on the range with our team almost every weekend and they have been great.

re: Rifle tripod with arca rail?

Posted by laduckkiller on 12/16/22 at 12:36 pm to
I have the Kopfjager reaper grip with Leofoto ball head on a carbon Field Optics research tripod (on sale at a heavy discount). Good investment, I started using it for my son and now love the system. Slowly trying to put arca rails on everything I own to reduce the weight compared to the reaper grip.

Lots of packages out there in all price ranges, just have to be patient to find a good deal (higher price = lower weight). Check out foxoptic they have some good videos on tripods and Salmon River Solutions has some really lightweight arca rails.

Not sure of your timing or route, but Hartville Kitchen just north of Canton or Das Dutch Haus in Columbiana are two great Amish restaurants. I try and hit those when up visiting family. Save room for a piece of pie.

Double Bull (you get what you pay for). You really should look at one of the see-through mesh regardless of brand.
