Crow Bar, again it depends on where you are.
East of town, there are areas that you can almost give a compass bearing. The other directions, it varies. And thats one shot.
Back where I grew up, out in the timber or corn fields, it was a lot more difficult (almost impossible) between the echoes and dampening by leaves. Which made it much easier for the poachers. There and then, nobody had threaded muzzles, except the novice poachers. Being a shotgun only state for deer, you didn’t see rifles in the field except for the few people who went after groundhogs. But everyone had a .22 and shotgun. Threaded muzzles stood out like day-glo under a black light. And as nobody had cans (legally), the threaded muzzle was a dead giveaway.
Where was I going with that? That takedown 9/45 is enough quieter than a .223/308 to make it highly useful especially in an area where the locals are going to call DOW the first shot they hear. And the takedown features make it even easier to hide away from prying eyes.
I decide to pop one of the deer on my way home, taking the long way around town. The 9/45 is enough quieter that I can just shoot out of the passenger window and the people not a mile away won’t call the Sheriff/Police and I could come back and pick it up later. A proper rifle is gonna attract unwanted attention. That theres a rifle range two miles south does help negate people’s interest. Blending in.
Tolik, the last couple of times I saw AK’s and name brand AR’s in the “local” pawn shops, they started at $500 and went up. And those were the beaters. Good stuff, overpriced and also listed on the internet.
