In Italia, la caccia è una passione molto diffusa tra molte persone, tra cui anche il sottoscritto. La mia giornata tipo inizia molto presto la mattina, prima dell'alba, quando mi dirigo verso la mia zona di caccia preferita. Una volta arrivato sul posto, preparo tutto l'occorrente per la mia attività, come la mia arma ed il mio binocolo. Inizio poi a camminare lentamente nel bosco, cercando di fare il minor rumore possibile per non spaventare gli animali. La caccia in Italia è regolamentata dalla legge, quindi devo rispettare le restrizioni e le limitazioni imposte dal governo. Inoltre, devo avere una licenza di caccia valida per poter esercitare questa attività. Durante la mia giornata di caccia, mi piace anche godermi la bellezza della natura, osservando gli animali e gli uccelli che vivono nei boschi italiani. Questo mi aiuta a rilassarmi e a dimenticare per un po' lo stress della vita quotidiana. Una volta terminata la mia giornata di caccia, torno a casa con la mia preda, che

House OKs bill meant to help owners keep guns in emergencies COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio House lawmakers have advanced a proposal meant to ensure that gun owners’ lawfully held firearms and ammunition aren’t seized by the government during natural disasters, public health crises or other declared emergencies. The bill that cleared the Republican-led House on Thursday also would deem certain firearms businesses “essential” during those emergencies, temporarily extend concealed carry licenses that would expire during an emergency and keep government entities from stopping lawful hunting or fishing practices during declared emergencies. GOP Sen. Tim Schaffer of Lancaster, who sponsored the bill, has said it does not add new gun rights but clarifies that gun owners “cannot have their rights taken away.” Supporters say it would help protect self-defense for law-abiding gun owners. Democrats opposing the measure say it would hinder local governments from best protecting their residents du

How to extend the life of your weapon Weapons care products include: various ramrods, brushes, flexible snakes, tools for covering wooden parts of guns, gun oils, plugs for barrels, etc. Remember that weapons must be handled very carefully. You always have to suspect that it can fire on its own. Before you start cleaning it, and before you perform any actions with a weapon, make sure that there are no cartridges in the magazine and in the barrel! This rule sounds paradoxical, but nevertheless, only with strict observance of it, the hunter can be calm that he will not cause a catastrophe. It should not be forgotten that careless handling of a gun is dangerous not so much for the owner of the gun himself, but for others.

Il museo italiano della Beccaccia ha pubblicato un video. La beccaccia è un vero maestro dell'adattamento, in grado di tollerare con destrezza anche forti schiocchi freddi durante lo svernamento. Con l'aiuto del suo lungo becco sensibile, scava il terreno alla ricerca di vermi e insetti, anche sotto strati di neve soffice. Il terreno non è congelato, e questa è la cosa principale. L'areale della beccaccia comprende quasi interamente l'ecozona paleartica. Dall'Europa fino alle isole atlantiche (Azzorre, Canarie) e le isole britanniche, l'Asia fino alla Cina, Mongolia, e Tibet.

Designed to be the perfect combination of speed and comfort, the Escort Dynamax semi-automatic shotgun is loaded with features that maximize both performance and value. The Dynamax is outfitted with Escort's modern, patented Hybrid Cycling System (HCS). It combines the best features from each of the two traditional cycling operating systems, gas and kinetic. The Dynamax will cycle light loads like a traditional gas system, but uses much less gas. As a result, recoil is reduced, and the cycle rate is faster and more efficient. With less felt recoil, the shooter acquires targets faster, making follow up shots more effective. Using less gas to cycle the gun also means the Dynamax does not have to be cleaned as frequently, and the shotgun is simple to break down, making maintenance easy. The entire barrel/receiver module is oxidation-proof for ultimate weather resistance. The precision-tooled barrel is made from Ni-Cr-Mo steel, and is hard-chrome-lined. The bolt of the Dynamax is also fabr

The Dakota was based on the legendary Pre-64 Winchester Model 70, with a couple of unique innovations thrown in. Unlike most production guns, Dakota 76s are machined from bar stock rather than forged or cast.

While I’ve been blessed to travel North America in search of big whitetails, I live and hunt mostly in Kentucky. But, growing up, I didn’t have enough access to let properties soak until gun season. I only had one or two places to go, and I wanted to hunt. I’m more avid about bowhunting than gun hunting anyway. So, it just never made sense to not hunt at the earliest opportunity. Then, in 2015, I started leasing another property, which gave me additional access here at home. Since then, except for a few seasons, the practice has been to leave the property unhunted until rifle season in November. My anecdotal theory is that whitetails will get pressured by neighboring bowhunters, which will push deer onto the lease, ultimately “stacking” deer onto it for gun season. Furthermore, if I or another lease member happen to pressure a mature deer once gun season opens, it’s less likely to vacate the area given that the rut is already in motion. Interestingly, studies show bucks are less lik
