Totally. Wacked over stone glacier, sitka gear and schnee winter boots.
Belgrade construction guy, daughter no wife, real ass Montana white poverty most likely. Still weird. They probably already know who did it and will announce this week. Probably some fight/drunk/crazy shit gone insane.
Just worked w a retired 20 yr Gallatin county detective, said always white trash always alcohol domestic horrible shit
You don't have to be a detective to know the majority of murders in the area are domestic violence. You just have to read the local news.
Maybe a tech bro sharpened an iPad and went nuts hardening up his flex.
Having an axe murderer on the loose is crazy. My mother in law also had some fucked up dude try to break into her house early last Sunday am over in Norton Ranch. Cops were there in 5 minutes and they hauled him away in an ambulance.
I'm not one to be paranoid but we definitely lock our doors every night and I've decided to purchase a shotgun.
Maybe just an 870? Will feel weird to have a gun in the house but better safe than sorry right? Figure we can also use when rv camping in bear country.
I’d argue bear spray is better home defense. Hard to miss, won’t go to jail for murder if you make a mistake or find a judge/city attorney going after you. Easier to “pull the trigger”, less morally complicated in the heat of the moment. Granted you might inhale some yourself and destroy your carpet, but human brains/blood all over the wall and ceiling can be disturbing to some.
I’m all for shooting criminals square in the face, just don’t think a gun is the best choice.
Thanks! I'm discussing the pro/cons with my wife of bringing a gun into the house.Quote:

The wrestling skills alone are enough!
Years ago when my kid was two we were camping in east desert California and drunk guy came into our camp wanting to “party”. I picked up my kid, went in camper, got my Glock 10mm. I didn’t present it, but was really wanting to put a bullet in this assholes head who wouldn’t leave. If I had bear spray I could have used that and tied his stupid ass to a tree and left.
Damn Swimmy 34-0! No 870 required just post this picture on the corner of the driveway and Lizzy Borden will take her axe to the next house.
Seriously though, bear spray in the bedside drawer is effective in the very unlikely event of an intruder. If you do decide to go the loaded firearm unlocked in the home route let me know if you want to borrow a pump or side by side shotgun trial in your house.

She got the lazy eye from fighting him. My memory is real, real fuzzy on the story though and I'm sure it's archived in the Bozeman Chronicle.
This is the book to read if you want to learn about a bonafide Montana serial killer. Used to deliver furniture for Conlin's to case his victims.

Only drawback of bear spray is you will inherently likely inhale some yourself as it aerosolizes in the room, but probably far less debilitating than taking it to the face.
I see a gun as challenging to commit to pulling the trigger, then you get over taken by said loser as you fumble around. Then maybe you kill your wife or kid in the adjacent room.
I have guns in my house, but none are ready for a home intruder. My wife carries a side arm when she's in the woods alone, on her hip, in plain view, more to say "I have a fucking gun, leave me alone" than anything else.
Trackhead I'm in exact agreement with you. Guns locked in the gun case, bear spray in the nightstand. And a baseball bat under the bed. :D
I mean the guns are accessible if I get into a prolonged battle, but what are the odds of that? I have rubber slugs as well that I bought to scare away a bear. But it just seems too farfetched to even contemplate.
My friend has a handgun in his nightstand. But he never locks his doors at night. That really strikes me as odd.
Same, but not sure I can get on top of the fastball like I could 20 years ago https://images2.imgbox.com/d2/06/CwK...?download=trueQuote:

The question, Mr. Trackhead, is about the blade - or lack thereof. I think it can be a make or break in drifted areas. Maybe a solid crew of mags with some hydraulics (or shovels) can help
Edit: this is objectively rad
Wow. This is the definition ofQuote:

Love watching your progress
Well a blade will happen. It will be electric actuators six way blade. I’ve built them before.
We had some nice color in our trees and bushes but that squall yesterday blew it all down the road.
Yeah it is hit or miss.Quote:
