I thought you HAD to shoot with a hi cap semi auto in NJ so once you downed your deer, you could hold the rest of the hunters at bay while you get to it for tagging! There were a couple few NJ guys up at the camp we go to in Jackman who were a riot. Talking about having to shoot cover fire for a friend so they could get to their deer before someone else did! Goofballs for sure.
Those Katahdin Carbines are nice. I love my 18" 1895GS .45-70 which is similar but in a lever action, in terms of ballistics. I want to get a TC Encore or Contender at some point. Nice guns.
Oh yeh, I have seen those Maine Vue scopes at the Concord, NH gun show at a friend's table. They look nice and seem to be great, but how is the quality and do they stand up to the recoil of a big bore and the fogging while hunting in northern Maine? I am just curious and am not in any way trying to diminish their sales, I am just curious as I may invest in a couple at some point and want to know if they are worth it.
Thanks!
