    In a shoot out "me" in the hay field????????

    I have been shoping for a pistol today. I have shotgun I carry in the pickup and bought some buck shot today. All I had was # 7 shot. The pistol will be much easer to carry on the tractor and working on the farm than my shotgun. But the shotgun will stay with me as much as I can. If they have...

    Baling Corn Stubble
