Rear foot of a beaver

She should not have walked up to him and put her feet on him at the end. He could turn around and hurt her.

---

Less likely to harm anyone if he’s proned out on his stomach. She kept weapon on threat and clearly had the upper hand.

quote:

---

Also, draw was bad. She should have maintained two hands while firing.

---

No problem with shooting one handed. She got on target as quick as possible. Going straight to two meant she’d have to reposition body and feet plus have to deal with a big arse purse that may have even concealed her weapon during the draw. Plenty of quick shooting drills teach fire from right out of holster. Then fire on the way to getting on front site and off hand on weapon.

Also, first round she fires, another woman and child was behind the perp.

Nope

quote:

---

Also, when she was about to fire, she stepped in too close.

---

Nothing wrong with a shot from weapon pressed against them if you’re already close. He wasnt in good position to take her weapon. She was already committed to stopping the threat. There was not going to be any verbal commands to drop his weapon.

quote:

She got pretty lucky.

---

She was lucky she didn’t have to depend on someone such as yourself to take care of business. She was calm and prepared. She’d played that scenario out a thousand times in her head and it paid off. She did damn good. I’d never want to be in that situation, but if I had to go through the same thing, I’d hope my training would kick in as well as hers.

Absolutely love em! I’ve got two 12s and a 16. I’d love to have 50 more. Plus I’ve got several receivers, stocks, and a bucket full of parts. One day I’ll get around to engraving one of the 12’s and the 16. Other 12 was paw paws and I’ll let it stay exactly how I received it. I’ve got a sweet spot for all pre 64 Winchesters. Got a pre 64 model 94 that looks like it hasn’t had a box of rounds run through it. I’ll end end getting a model 42 one of theses days.

If you're going to be in north la between now and dooms day and have the knives in hand, I'll engrave em for ya free of charge. Figure I already owe you from all the gun reviews.

This is the Bible for blood tracking with dogs. I refer to it frequently during the season and usually re-read before start of the season.

Liver drags is the way to go. Make it a fun game for the dog. Once they figure out the game, the biggest hurdle is learning to read your dog and most importantly trust their nose. I try to learn something every track. My biggest "break through" moment was when I realized that, as her handler, I am the weakest link of our team. They will do what they'll do, it's my job to read her body language and not screw her up.

Always stay positive while on track. There's some voodoo that makes my inner doubts of a successful track travel from me and then infect her with the same doubts. If you decide to work with any dog for tracking, put the time in and be willing to travel long distances for friends, family or whoever needs help for your dogs sake. They will benefit with every track you do, but you will benefit just as much if not more.

One more thing.....be ready to experience some of the most exhilarating and rewarding experiences you will ever have in the outdoors. There is nothing better than finding a kids first deer and see the pure joy you helped to provide them and their parent. My pup has found 4 different kids first deer and I get choked up just thinking about it.

Proposed rule change or next year in Louisiana would allow the use of any firearm during primitive season on private land.

---

I don't think this change is for allowing any rifle to harvest a deer during primitive season. I think this only removes the restriction of only being able to carry a 22 with ratshot along with your "primitive" weapon. Here's what is proposed to be removed...

It is unlawful to carry a gun, other than a primitive firearm, including those powered by air or other means, while hunting during the special primitive firearms segment. Except, it is lawful to carry a .22 caliber rimfire pistol loaded with #12 shot (ratshot only).

That only refers to what can be carried and not what can be used to hunt with.

Since price is no object, perhaps a Kahr might be an option - getting the higher end PM9 and, if necessary, get a better trigger. ETA: It is a polymer, but one of the best subcompact 9mm pistols on the market as far as I'm concerned.

---

Kahr is what you want. American made and a pistol that will last generations. The Pm9 is polymer but if you want a metal frame look at the Kahr MK9. (MK and MK Elite is the higher end models not PM) It's heavier than PM model but super easy to conceal. I've got a wallet holster and it goes with me everywhere. I don't know why you'd want a better trigger. My Kahr has a butter smooth double action trigger. Best stock DA I've ever had the pleasure of pulling. I've got over 2500 rounds through mine and it has ate and spit out everything I've fed it.

Go ahead. Where you at?

Close to Magnolia, AR

Looks like it could be a Kentucky Long Rifle.
