There's a reason for that. It's one of the very few gas operated pistols around. As a result, unlike most semi-auto pistols it's barrel is fixed. Almost all other barrels recoil back a short distance with the slide. Fixed barrel is inherently more accurate. Expensive though I have a 50AE version and need to get a 44 barrel for it.

I booked a spring hog hunt with 10 of my fellow cave men.
I'm thinking that should be pretty fun. I'm setting a goal now to take a bear with my bow next year. |

Once I saw a coffee table with a coyote smashing on a pheasant in a snow scene. Thought it was pretty cool. Wouldn't mind shooting each & having one made.
I'd rather shoot 5 coyotes though about the same color & have a pimp coat made ![]() Last edited by ptlyon; 12-27-2012 at 08:56 AM.. |

Are there any predator callers here?
I spent a little time with a buddy calling coyotes last year and had a ball, but like everything else, it seems to be a learned skill. I know some, but let's pretend I don't. I'm interested in some basic tips and your favorite setups. |

rabbit call or distress calls Set ups let see here? #1 Getting to the spot that you wanna set up in without making so much noise every creature for a mile knows you are there is important. frozen snow is loud. the clothes you wear can be loud. so pay attention to what you wear. #2 If you & a buddy go out together. Have the guy that is not using the hand-call set up about 15 to 20 yards down wind . The Yote will circle & try to wind what ever it hears in distress. So the guy down wind should get the best shot. #3 Try not to move. If you have to move at all, do it while the yote is at a nice jog or run. If its standing still dnt even bat an eye lid. yotes are lazy & will take the easiest way or path in all most every time. get yourselves set down.Then glass over the aria real good before you start calling. You just may see one. If you see a yote coming in & it keeps looking behind its self. Their is another yote with it.Be patient you have a double or triple coming. When time comes to shoot take the furthest yote out. That will give you the best chance at a double triple ect. If you get busted that animal will never come into that call again. So do your best not to educate them. As for howling? Those are my secrets that I have spent years learning & perfecting. It ups your odds if you know what you are doing, & as long as the wind is at your face a yote will almost run you over sometimes. We are not quite to that time of year where I would go all out on howling. Middle Jan when they start to couple up & become very very territorial, is when howling is at its best. Not that it wont work now. It will What I like most about howling is being able to project a illusion to yotes as far as a mile away. (which you can not do with a distress call) Thee illusion that one or more unknown yotes are in their territory & eating the game that those Yotes will be feeding their pups with. Its a game changer to say the least Last edited by LiveSteam; 12-27-2012 at 05:01 PM.. |

If you really wanna to learn some useful tricks. I would suggest Randy Anderson's DVD. Calling all coyotes.
Even this old dog learned a trick or two from Randy,& I have been hunting dogs with my oldman long before I was old enough to shoot a rifle. |

Some of my hand calls. I have many. some in this pic are pretty new, a few are old. Lot of my old calls that were my Pops or Grandpas, the reeds are shot & they are worthless but hold sentimental value to me. [IMG]1227121717_0001.jpg (40.0 KB)[/IMG] The one on the far right is the Cat Nip. GREAT SOUND! Its one of my newer calls & defiantly a favorite. The one on the far left was a squirrel squeak before I got my hands on it. Its called a lot of dogs in, in its day Last edited by LiveSteam; 05-21-2020 at 08:43 PM.. |

Nice vid on the Fox pro. You can see how fast it can happen when he misses with the shotgun & switches to a rifle . Bam in your face action
