ATF: Because RAWK!
Yes. Yes we're doin' a show. I'm stuffing my face with home made fried seafood as I type. This takes talent.
A: Amber Bock and Makers
T: Makers cigar.
F: Savange 99 in 308. Just got home from hunting with it.

Cool.
Define Cool.
I don't think the word has any meaning anymore. Like fascist gets applied to bad things... cool gets applied to good things.
I'll tell you what cool really is. Cool is what happens when you're doing your own thing... because you really don't give a damn... and everyone likes it. Cool... is a rock band that looked like roughnecks just off the oil rigs... with beards down to their waists and fedoras.
Cool... is ZZ Top.
Think of the big bands you remember from the 70s and 80s. Where are they now? Styx and Kansas and Reo Speedwagon? Off touring with each other... playing to half empty arenas to people stuck in high school. ZZ Top? In 2013 ZZ Top was killing it at Bonneroo... which is possibly the biggest rock festival of the year.
You know how cool ZZ Top is? Nickleback covered Sharp Dressed Man live in 2007... and for three minutes and forty-four seconds... Nickleback was cool. That's how cool ZZ Top is.
Under Pressure. Pearl Necklace. TubeSnake Boogie. Legs. Gimmie All Your Lovin'. You can throw one on at any party... anywhere... and watch. big smiles will start showing up on everyone's face... and they'll start nodding with the beat. Every one of them.
So... if you've neglected your duties as a parent... I strongly suggest you show your youngin' this blog post. And if you're wondering what to crank tonight while you're smokin' and sippin'... well...

On Yankees...
In the South live Southrons. Any yankee, from anywhere, if it wants to live in the South, to work and eat in the South, should speak southron, and should respect Southron Culture. If they prefer yankee culture, then we advise them to go to those places where that's the culture. The South does not need yankees. Yankees need The South, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our culture to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell 'hillbilly'. We better learn from the suicides of New York, Detroit, Chicago and Boston, if we are to survive as a culture. The Southron customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of yankees. When this honorable population thinks of accepting new traditions, it should have in mind the cultural interest first, observing that the yankees are not Southrons.

And.... We're Back!
Before things go to far... I want to show you what apparently passes for a deer stand in Southern By God Alabama.
yeah kids. That's 8X8... and there is a porch off the back to shoot your bow off of. Of course... its carpeted and insulated as well. Now understand... we were not at some game preserve... or fenced in slaughter house.
This is 35,000 privately owned acres of real damned hunting. And by real damned hunting... I mean hanging out inside with your feet propped up wondering when the deer were gonna walk by. All while looking at food plots that look like... well...
As you can see... we were suffering.
And the craziest thing?
Sunday morning were 13 feet off the ground in this crazy contraption! I mean seriously. What the heck? Tracked mobile deer stands! God Bless The South.
Now the bad news...
We saw a bunch of deer... and a bunch of turkeys... but took none. All little girls... and its just to close to the rut to be killing a doe.

The Bad News...
You're used to this at this point I suppose. Yes... you're right... I am yet again reporting that there will be no ATF show Friday.
See...
Me and my oldest boy, and my best friend, and his boy, are all going on a full weekend hunt on a private hunting club. I can't adequately describe this place... so instead I'll be posting pictures and generally providing hunting porn.
We do ... ahem... aim... to please.
What we're hunting: Deer. Big damned deer. This isn't the place you go to shoot a meat deer doe. We're looking for big racks. Period.
What we're using:
Jeb is shooting a Browning A-Bolt with BOSS. Black synthetic stock... BOSS... 2.5-10X44 Viper HS optics. Winchester 115 grain Ballistic Tips.
I'm shooting a Sig .300 Win Mag. Zeiss glass. 6.5-20X50. I'm shooting Hornady American Whitetails... 150 grain.
Greg is shooting his raggedy ass... but beloved... Remington 700 in .308. I think it has Zeiss glass too. I think he's shooting ballistic tips... 150 grains.
Samuel is shooting his Steyr bolt action 7m-08. Also Zeiss glass. I think its a 56mm. He's also shooting ballistic tips. 120 grains.
How we're hunting: High end shooting houses. No really. I wouldn't be surprised if they were heated.
I've never gotten to do this kind of over night hunt before... and I've got to say I am stoked. I'll tell ya right now... my worry is pretty simple. When that big 12 point walks out... I have to figure out a way to keep my crap together and let Jeb shoot him.
As great as this is gonna be... its not about me. Its about Jeb and Samuel.
That said... if a couple of 8 points are standing in front of us... We are probably gonna try a simultaneous shot. Don't get me wrong. Priority One is to get Jeb a badass buck to mount.
still....
Just because its the first priority... don't mean its the only priority.

Anti-Gun Senator Makes a Fool of Himself
There is no reason for anyone to have a 30 caliber 30 magazine clip! We need responsible gun laws banning 30 magazine clips!
Honestly. Does anyone wonder why it pisses us off when we are asked to sit down at a table and discuss firearms with people that are this damned ignorant?
And what the hell is a ghost gun? Because... it looks like an m4 to me. I can tell ya right now the weapon he's holding is already illegal. If its fully automatic... it requires a very high level of licensing to be legally owned. Also... given that there is a stock attached.. the barrel is to short.
But of course that doesn't matter right?
These are liberals we're talking about. As long as they mean well its ok!

Nates NFL Predictions:
OK seriously I want you to look at that graph. If that doesn't show you how much better Manning is than everyone else... then nothing will.
So yes... the Super Bowl will involve Denver.
And apparently Seattle. Because one doesn't simply walk into Seattle.
The 49ers are a good football team but that Hawks Defense is going knock them around... and Lynch will go full on Beastmode.
Tac-Con™ 3MR Trigger System
Ever bumpfired a semi-auto? Ever used a slidefire stock?
How about a drop in trigger that does the same thing? Legally.
Retail will be about 500 bucks.

You're welcome.

Blackphone
What if you could get an NSA proof smartphone?
Look I know you think you already have one... but you don't. Not even Blackberry. That's not to say that Blackberry is an easy target... but the NSA has broken through on occasion. When they want to... they get it done.
Well... now it seems the stakes have been raised.
Blackphone claims to be NSA proof. They claim from the ground up... to the silicon level the hardware is secure. The details are sketchy on just how its secured... other than we know it uses a VPN.
I don't know about you but I will be buying one as soon as its available if the security is even close to what they claim.
If you know anything about this product and what the security features actually are I bet a lot of folks would love to hear more.

ATF: MOAR BEACH
No show tonight.. I'm still at the beach and we have very... strained... internet access. Its not that we don't have access... its that the access... is sketchy to the point that there is no way to get through an hour long show.
I'm pretty irritated... but what can ya do? Well... you can smoke and drink.
And so...
A: Ranger IPA: Look... you're either an IPA guy or you're not. If you're not... you'll hate it. If you are... you'll love it. That's my prediction anyway.
T: I'm still working on this R&J HAVOCs. They are fabulous... but small for my taste. I prefer a longer smoke. I feel like I am just getting into the smoke and these are done. Damned nice. But they aren't gonna replace my Gurkhas.
F: 2 Steyr M-40A-1s... and a springfield 1911. Because reloading is bullshit.

ATF:
Vacation.
No show.
The holiday celebrations were particularly exhausting this year... so we've decided to spend a week at the beach. So while there will be no ATF show tonight... fear not. Look forward to an extremely ramped up number of posts related to booze and smokes and such over the next several days starting saturday night or sunday.
On a related note:
A: Bookers. Because Bookers.
T: Arturo. Because Arturo.
F: german .25 caliber pistol. Made in Auschwitz.
No show.
