http://www.remington.com/library/press/2007/2007-1.asp Remington to Sever Sponsorship Ties with Jim Zumbo Madison, North Carolina – As a result of comments made by Mr. Jim Zumbo in recent postings on his blog site, Remington Arms Company, Inc., has severed all sponsorship ties with Mr. Zumbo effective immediately. While Mr. Zumbo is entitled to his opinions and has the constitutional right to freely express those options, these comments are solely his, and do not reflect the views of Remington. “Remington has spent tens of millions of dollars defending our Second Amendment rights to privately own and possess firearms and we will continue to vigorously fight to protect these rights,” commented Tommy Millner, Remington’s CEO and President. “As hunters and shooters of all interest levels, we should strive to utilize this unfortunate occurrence to unite as a whole in support of our Second Amendment rights.” We regret having to terminate our long-standing relationship with Mr. Zumbo, who is a well-respected writer and life-long hunter. ******************************************* For those who haven't already heard, Zumbo wrote comments on his OL blog calling AR rifle terrorist weapons that had no sporting use. http://outdoorlife.blogs.com/zumbo/2007/02/assault_rifles_.html Since then, he has been attacked on just every hunting and gun forum there is. I think Remington and others could have made better use of this opportunity by inviting Jim to learn more about the black rifles and to understand that they can and are used by many sportsmen all over the world. Overall, I'm very dissapointed that so many gun owners have used this unfortunate moment in his career to launch lynch-mob styled attacks on his character. Many of the inflammatory comments only serve to fuel the anti gun lobby's assertions that many gun owners are hotheads with short fuses and are prone to violence when not appeased. By "eating our own young" we have served no good purpose.

It's still the 93 Weaver.

Here's a good article. http://www.sitepoint.com/article/stop-comment-spam

Why don't you go drive around town with your left blinker on for a couple of hours?!

For all you GI-Janes. [/url] Sold by DPMS. It's in the new catalog I got today, but I didn't see it on their website. But I didn't spend a lot of time looking either.

Check local laws. if you're in California, it's illegal to think about these items. But it's OK to like that new Snickers commercial .

On geese, you have to keep breasts, thighs, and wings. I'd still skin them rather than plucking. If you pluck a goose, you'll have about two bushels of feathers per goose. Huge mess. Here's the way to do it. Using your fingers, part the down on the lower end of the breast, just above the exhaust port, until you feel skin. Avoid using a knife to eparate the skin. The cutting seems to set free about 10,000 little bits of down. Tear a hole in the skin and work your fingers into the hole. Tear the skin apart and begin exposing the breast. Simply keep ripping and tearing until the breast is fully exposed, then tear it off the thighs and wings. It's pretty much like skinning a rabbitt or other small game. You can cut the breast out whole (with bone), or you can filet the meat off of each side (preferred) with a sharp knife. The wings and thighs can be cut at the joints and removed. Both wing and thigh need only be taken out up to the first joint. There are other methods and techniques, but this is how I do them. http://www.nodakoutdoors.com/birdcleaning.php http://www.lyndenhuggins.com/Hunting/Fillet%20Goose/How%20To%20Fillet%20a%20Goose.htm

This is directly from Montana's web site. There are some requirements concerning larger ducks and geese that are different from other states. You do have to save more on larger ducks. http://fwp.mt.gov/content/getItem.aspx?id=24095 Procedures to Follow Upon Harvesting Waterfowl – Leave Wing or Head Attached – One fully feathered wing or head must remain attached to each bird (except doves) at all times while being transported from the place where taken to the personal abode of the possessor or a processing facility. Wanton Waste – No person shall kill or cripple any migratory game bird pursuant to this part without making a reasonable effort to retrieve the bird, and retain it in his actual custody, at the place where taken or between that place and either: (a) his automobile or principal means of land transportation; or (b) his personal abode or temporary or transient place of lodging; or © migratory game bird preservation facility; or (d) a post offi ce; or (e) a common carrier facility. Game Parts Suitable For Food • All birds that fall into the size category of a teal duck or smaller, only the breasts must be retained. • All birds larger than a teal duck up to the size category of a mallard duck, the breasts and the thighs must be retained. • All birds larger than mallard ducks, the breasts, thighs and wings must be retained. Field Possession Limit – No person shall possess more than one daily bag limit while in the fi eld, or while returning from the fi eld to one’s vehicle, hunting camp, home, etc.

Breasting is OK and perfectly legal, with perhaps one exception. If you're transporting the birds, they must be identifiable until you have them home. Most do this by leaving a wing on birds cleaned in the field. Once they're home, they're yours. There will always be those who argue that breasting is for the lazy and it's wasteful, but it's a philosphical issue, not a legal one.

The one that delivers the best pattern at 25-35 yards.

it's been so long since I registered that I can't remember the exact process required here. Many forums require that you register and then you're sent a confirmation e-mail to complete the registration. Some also use those instantly generated graphics with the confirmation alpha-numeric code to complete the registration process.

That 16 is beautiful! As a young man, one of my primary inluences on hunting was my Uncle Harry. He used one of those for bird and rabbitt hunting. Incredible to find one that well preserved. I see many more Benellis in your future as well

Don't do it that way. Pics as attachments are not allowed. You need to have the pic hosted (Photobucket, Hunt101, etc.) and then use the image button to post the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) for the hosted image. Look at the pics in this thread. Right-click some of them and choose properties, and you'll understand more.

Toboggan? Yes, the mercury reducers work nicely. I suppose you could get a Caldwell Lead Sled (not a toboggan).

Yankee?! Them's fightin' words, suh!

I guess this is where the official welcome should have been posted. I have admired your Brownings from afar for some time now . The picture above doesn't seem to be working? Welcome again.

DaddyRabbit, Browning collector extraordinaire! Welcome to the Benelli forums! Good to have you here.

Could the mods do something about the constant flood of PLEASE!

I do remember that there were two versions of SBE's offered for about six months last year, but I was thinking they were SBE and SBEII. You could very well be right, mudhen. It would make sense. Benelli would have had older furniture that needed to be depleted, but they wouldn't want to keep having the old style receivers made. BARTMAN, Using this guide, you should be able to when your gun was made. Late 2005 - Early 2006 would be a good candidate for one of these transition guns.

You need some snow to shovel .

The new stock, more open trigger guard, stainless recoil system, AirTouch grips, and Crio barrels defined the SBEII from the start. These were the features that constituted the II in the name.

Not sure if this will help or not. I would have thought one of the GI-Joes would have answered by now, but they must all be out shooting at snowflakes today http://www.benelliusa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8793
