    TVM Woes! :(

    I've gotten several smoothbores from Jackie Brown. All under a $1k. Work fine and kill anything I shoot at.

    The most important skill on being or becoming an AMM brother is a willingness to learn, to help brothers after you, and a attitude of confident humility, at least that is my personal standard when inviting a prospective brother.

    As to the cloth question on hand stitched clothing trade cloth and goods to rendevous we're transported as well as lots of trading posts that had cloth. So, this is easily accomplished as well. I brain tanned enough deer hides and stitched them together, if a ham fisted ape like me can do it...

    The game animal taken need not be a big game animal, just that you hunt from a primitive camp in a primitive manner, and utilize the meat for food, this could be a squirrel, and it you cooked and ate it over a fire you have knocked out two requirements. I also went to a meat processor and...

    Okay to the gun question, any good gun of the period would be acceptable. TVM, and other makers, I personally carry an early Virginia type, a 1792/94 contract rifle, and a NW Trade gun type. Several I know carry Lancaster type rifles. Requirement for membership #1 and #2 requirements are...

    New Movie The Revenant?

    :thumbsup: +1 I totally agree - my enjoyment of the movie might have been clouded by my intimate knowledge of the area in question - and my own "mini" Hugh Glass experience on that very river, along what might have been the route the 1823 expedition may have taken - 2 yrs ago. I was impressed...

    Stake out collar - instead of a bridle we attach stake out rope to the collar - some like them some don't I prefer them over a bridle

    New Movie The Revenant?

    It was good entertainment - I did overall like it but probably was spoiled for me - knowing what I know about the country and the Glass story in particular I think the locations were chosen for cinematography and effect - to entertain and show wonder and grandeur - I understand that - Hugh...

    New Movie The Revenant?

    I know the area very well - no towering pine trees the Grand River is not damned and although their are ancient cottonwoods and weathered dead cottonwoods everywhere there are damn few pine trees and the area only gets 18 inches of annual rainfall on average - so no moss covered fir trees with...

    New Movie The Revenant?

    I liked it for the entertainment value but it was horrible as far as accuracy. The initial attack from the Arikara occured on the Missouri near the mouth of the Grand River - no pine trees there like that - the mauling happened in the summer - SD can get cold but I never seen that kind of snow...

    New Movie The Revenant?

    I liked it overall - however, it was very disappointing in accuracy. Andew Henry was not killed by Fitzgerald and Fitzgerald was not killed by Glass. The scenery is nothing like the Grand River in SD - and the moss covered fir trees is a real stretch the attack of the bear happened in August...

    Brother Nathan You know a 50 caliber with PRB is too small to reliably kill an elk :grin: Brother Nathan - You are just outstanding :bow:

    NM Hunting regulations

    I am in the process - (about 95 percent sure) of getting a position in the Gila area of NM and was wondering if there are any big game hunting opportunities there once I establish residency or perhaps as a non-resident without drawing tags?
