I should probably get an AK variant or an AR-15 before the blue flagged communists ban them for good

Sooo..... I know this is gatpunch... but does anyone have any good left-handed hunting bow recommendations and any good crossbow recommendations for white tail? My dad recently bought a new house on about two acres of wooded land and is looking to get hunting access to the ten acre lot behind him next year possibly, and would be interested in a crossbow. I'd join him, but prefer shooting archery over crossbow.

So I was thinking of getting the my Toz54 cut down. It is 30 inch at the moment and I was thinking of getting it cut to 20-22inch. I bought it for $150AUD and don't really care much for it as it is a cheap soviet gun. The only thing I want to know is, is there any way to re-choke a shotgun? The Toz54 comes with Full/Mod choke built into the barrels and I fear 20inch with cylinder choke will be stupidly huge spread. So can you somehow re-choke them?
yup you can re-thread a shotgun for choke tubes might be slightly more difficult being that a toz-54 is a double barrel (doubles generally have thinner barrels to keep weight down) but a competent gunsmith should be able to do it without a problem

minimum OD for the 12Ga re-thread kits i'm familiar with is 0.845" any thinner and you run into the risk of A. punching through the barrel or B. Elmer fudding the gun. Exactly how thin are we talking here?
I have one my AR. No problems with it at all. [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/1v731dr9xtnlcn1/IMG_20161122_165534.jpg?dl=0[/url]
[QUOTE=PrusseLusken;51410828]the spread will not be stupid big, I have an 18" barrel for my SXP with cylinder choke and it's not like it spreads all over a barn from twenty meters. Use tighter grouping ammo maybe.[/QUOTE] Tighter grouping ammo? I've never seen a shot shell describe itself as tight grouping.
[QUOTE=PrusseLusken;51413387]some shot shells come with wad designs designed to spread less.[/QUOTE] Any chance you have a photo of such a wad?
Today I custom made a template for grip tape for my K100, and found a sample of the most ruthless grip tape to fit to it: [img]http://i.imgur.com/nrQoXQV.jpg[/img] This was the result after working it to fit the grip: [img]http://i.imgur.com/W80CXJa.jpg[/img] After shooting this for a match I will have no fingerprints left on my right hand!
