Ever since shooting this Big Guy back in January and then tracking him shortly after the shot, I've added a few security items to my Hog Tracking Pack!

-

-

1) Pistol grip tippit caper...forged 52100 ball bearing steel, OAL 7" with 3" blade, walnut handle.

2) S&W 27-2 .357 mag 4" barrel (yes it is legal to carry a handgun while bowhunting Hogs in South Carolina)

Jeff, not a bad idea. I've often thought about it myself while down there and on my hands and knees in a tunnel that has no way out but the way you came in. You get my pm about Mills' knife?

Nice hog and thats a very cool knife.Leave the pistol in the truck,it takes away from the dance.Ever seen a average pistol shooter try and shoot a charging hog of that size,every body around is in danger.

To be traditional, the Smith has to be pinned and recessed.

Killy, does that mean my 29-2 is good to go, even if I only load heavy .44Spl's?

Actually, I was rather taken with the knife - more so than the .357. That is one graceful looking slicing and dicing machine.

Grrat hog there! When I go in the dark, it is with my dog, usually. Makes me feel better. The way I shoot a pistol, I would probably shoot mysef, lol.

Killy,
Yes indeed it is Pinned & Recessed...all steel not plastic. Made in Massachusetts...even though I could Not buy that same gun from out of state and bring it back because it does NOT comply with the MA Consumer Protection
regulations and/or the 1998 Gun Control laws!!

In other words, the only way to get that gun is it had to be registered in MA prior to 1998! Mass is NOT a very user friendly state to hunters [Frown]

Tippit, they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so I hope you won't be too offended if something like that knife should find its way to my belt. That thing REALLY turns me on!

I never made an original knife in my life, so no sense changing now [Big Grin]
