Steven K. Ledin, GAT Guns’ Magnificent Indoor Range and Nikon Spot On Competition Preparation

One of the two amazing 75 yard ranges at GAT Guns in Dundee IL

The news flyer from the city of East Dundee states that GAT Guns' indoor ranges are the "largest in the country". They are simply state of the art and magnificent.

OPMODasaki With Nanuk Versus Harley

Steven K. Ledin, OPMODasaki With Nanuk Versus Harley

I've been riding and racing bikes before kindergarden, since about 1964. I've had maybe 10 or so since then.

The OPMODasaki is the most satisfying bike I've ever owned, mostly because it fits my riding style. I love the dirt, and having a big thumping enduro bike between my legs with full bags on back is awesome. The KLR's knobbies splash through mud, sqirt dirt, and hop curbs and potholes like breathing. It is quick and nimble with a throaty growl, and the superb Nanuk cases on the Moose Expedition racing frame makes carrying cases of beer or ammo effortless. I keep my …

Our lovely Kate wearing a Tru-Spec 24-7 3-in-1 motorcycle jacket

The above picture shows our lovely Kate wearing the excellent Tru-Spec 24-7 3-in-1 WeatherShield jacket. It's my new go-to motorcycle jacket. I love everything about it. It's not marketed as a bike jacket, but it is the best I have ever owned for that application.

It's still chilly out during my morning drives to work, and proper clothing makes it comfortable. My area of least comfort, normally, is my lower chin and neck, even when wearing turtlenecks, like I normally do for spring riding.  I sometimes wear my secret weapon, a …

It also comes with a moving decoy and includes 2 gigs of memory to load your own noises if one of the included 400 calls are not to your liking. The gun is my Remington R-25 .308 …
