Here's my favorite piece, mid 90s Marlin 1895 45-70. Skinner backup sights with a Bushnell trophy red dot. With a minute men cartridge holder and WWG bear proof ejector.  |

Very cool!
Someday... a Marlin 1895 Cowboy will follow me home.
But, what exactly is a trunk rifle?

Backs it up using scent dogs. |

Put coffee in your trunk - it's suppose to trash the dog's nose for a while.

Steve,
Which optic is that on your rifle? How do you like it?
Thanks,
It is a Millett DMS1 and I am pretty happy with it considering I got it for less than $200. The illumination is kind of worthless in bright light but I have no problem picking up targets in bright light so it's not a big issue for me.  |

Spray your trunk with CS or MACE. Makes the car unusable, but it will toss off the dogs.  LMAO! Man, Recon, you have one warped sense of humour! This is probably going to be the SECOND remark of yours that will stick with me for days. Your other one still cracks me up from time to time as I think of it. |
