    What do you use for a truck gun?

    Mossberg makes a great gun as well. If i had to get another shotgun for tactical purposes, it would be a Benelli Nova Tactical. If I wanted a really nice one, the M4 lol

    What do you use for a truck gun?

    Dalko...It's just an 870 upgraded to mostly 870P specs with Hogue furniture. Just need to upgrade the front sight to an XS BIG DOT Night Sight http://www.rem870.com/2012/10/17/10-must-have-upgrades-for-your-remington-870-shotgun-2/

    9MM Pistol for bear protection?

    I used to do on the hip but since a friend's friend called in one while calling in Elk and the spray and pistol got pinned between him and the ground. He managed to get the spray out and deploy it.

    9MM Pistol for bear protection?

    As a professional guide, the guy should know better. I used to carry a S7W 629-6 with Bear loads. Now, I carry a G40 MOS 10mm on a chest rig with bear spray right next to the pistol. Have only ran in to one down by Taylors Fork and we went separate ways. I'm currenty using HSM bear loads but...

    Definitely. I'll eventually regear. Just not sure I'd go as high as what XO does. They are 4.56 or 4.88. I'm thinking 4.10

    2016 AWD Rogue Expo Platform...Would ya?

    I would liken it to using a Subaru to some extents. If you can make it work, why not. If that is what you have, you work with it if you don't wanna sell it.

    I hear ya there. I've just heard from more than a few people that it likes to hunt. Until I drive one, I can't say with certainty. My Xterra doesn't do it as much since i went with a LevelTen trans build. It does carry the gears quite well.

    Ozotron's 2010 OR Xterra, 15 days on the road, Canadian Rockies + WABDR

    I've had a crazy idea about doing an SAS down the road with an Atlas x-fer case, Currie/Diamond Titan width rear axle and VK swap. I like the idea of a custom 3-link suspension in the rear as well. All depends on what i decide to go with an that has taken a back seat right now while i am...

    Ozotron's 2010 OR Xterra, 15 days on the road, Canadian Rockies + WABDR

    Oz, no problem and thanks! I went with 2.5" of lift built in to the springs @+450 over stock. New Springs wouldn't let me use any setting but the lowest on the PRG shackle. Since they've settled, I've moved to the mid setting and will move it up the the high setting here next week. PRG has a...

    Ozotron's 2010 OR Xterra, 15 days on the road, Canadian Rockies + WABDR

    I'd go with +650. I went with +450 before I got my Maxterra rear bumper. I have the Jerry can holders back there too. I'm using Radflo 2.0s with a PRG adjustable shackle at the mid setting. Going to bring it to the highest this week. Now that the Alcan have been broken in and settled, I can get...

    RMP&Os 1977 Patrol Ute build for overlanding

    RMP... if I recall, are you down in the Jackson area? I might be looking to move down that way with a new job if I am lucky enough to get it. Seems there is a shortage of (affordable) housing down that way lol

    Nice objective review! Now to go test a 2016 or 17 at your local dealership! I've heard they are nice but the powertrain seems to hunt for gears a lot.

    45-70 rifle

    I'd like to find a decent 1895 and have it worked over by Jim Brockman. I wish I still had my BLR in 450 Marlin.
