The 10th Annual NRA-ILA Dinner and Auction, presented by Kimber, will take place this year in the Grand Ballroom of the Galt House Hotel in Louisville, Ky., on Friday, May 20, at 6 p.m. This highly anticipated event, which attracts celebrities, industry executives and a host of Second Amendment supporters from around the country, provides direct support for NRA’s legislative, legal and political efforts.

This year’s event will feature some impressive, one-of-a-kind items made and donated just for the auction, including engraved firearms, suppressors, knives, fine art, hunts, optics and trips across the globe. The featured item in the live auction is a custom Orange County Choppers trike, which has been donated by Pell Industrial. Truly a showpiece that would make anyone in Sturgis jealous, this trike even comes with a leather scabbard housing a matching Henry Big Boy Rifle in .44 Magnum, finished by Baron Engraving. It’s available for auction in advance of NRA Annual Meetings. Interested parties may bid through gunbroker.com or in person as the auction will close live at the NRA-ILA Dinner.

Tickets to the event are $500 for an individual and $5,000 for a table. Contact Wendy Martin to purchase tickets at [email protected] or 703-267-1229. With limited tickets available, this event is expected to sell out.

Starting last year, the Oregon based manufacturer began revamping its optics lines, and great news for hunters, they started with the second generation of the incredibly versatile VX-6 HD line, culminating in the VX-6 HD Gen. 2.

Michigan Mayor Looks Down on Guns and Dogs

“If you’ve got a gun, you should be ashamed of yourself,” said Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand. NRA-ILA also noted that in his response to a police K-9 chasing down a suspect, LaGrand said: “It is time that we ask, ‘What are dogs good for?’ Like, if you need a dog to find someone in the woods, get a hound dog. If you need to chase somebody in a backyard, why couldn’t you do that with a drone? If my dog did what I saw in that video, I’d put my dog down.”

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible. I take that improvising nature to heart even for coyotes, particularly when they shun my calls for whatever reason. When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
