Rick Perry tries to lure gun makers to Texas
CNN
Texas Gov. Rick Perry has been courting gun manufacturers in states that have enacted tougher gun laws, and he's taking his message on the road. Perry will travel to Connecticut and New York to meet with business leaders in the firearm industries, his office announced. Before Perry's four-day trip, a public-private group called TexasOne began running two television commercials in both states, touting Texas as a welcoming climate for gun manufacturers.
7 best pump shotguns for less than $500
Outdoor Life
A pump shotgun is like your old hunting truck. It might not be fancy. It might not have a lot of frills. But when you turn the key, it always gets the job done. That's why many hunters have chosen a pump shotgun as their first shotgun, and it's why many have chosen one as their last shotgun. A pump is simple, reliable, holds more shells than a break-action and can be had at a reasonable price.

Country hunting report: Namibia
By John McAdams
 Africa is truly a gigantic and diverse continent. The hunting opportunities vary across the continent and are as diverse and varied as the continent itself. Because of this, there is unfortunately no "one size fits all" solution to hunting there. In my next few articles, I plan on describing hunting conditions in African countries where I have hunted, starting with Namibia. These articles are not meant to be a review of the specific outfitters. Instead, I intend to describe hunting conditions, seasons, species available, weather, as well as travel to and within these countries.

The 10 guns that defined America
The Daily Mail
Chris Kyle knew guns in a way no modern American ever has. As a Navy SEAL sniper, he recorded 255 kills on the battlefield during four deployments to Iraq. After he retired from the military, he began researching the firearms that shaped American history. His book new book — published posthumously — "American Gun: A History of the U.S. in Ten Firearms" details the rifles and pistols wielded by soldiers, police officers, hunters, mobsters and outlaws that most influenced the culture of this nation.
Farm bill clears Senate, edges closer to passage
Ammo Land
The Senate took a critical step toward implementing policy that will impact great swaths of American agricultural lands as well as millions of sportsmen and landowners by voting to advance the 2013 Farm Bill, which would codify much of U.S. agriculture policy for the next five years. The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership and other leaders in the agriculture-conservation community lauded the Senate for addressing sportsmen's priorities in its version of the bill and urged the House of Representatives to follow suit.

Mountain lion population appears to be growing
Grand View Outdoors
An already "robust" population of mountain lions in the Catalina Mountains of Arizona appears to be increasing, and that could pose a threat to a planned reintroduction of bighorn sheep in the range this fall. Lions, which sometimes prey on bighorns, might hinder or even derail an effort to rebuild a herd in the Catalinas. In response, state wildlife officials have approved a plan for what they call the "administrative removal", or killing, of lions that kill sheep.
Cheetah acceleration power key to animal's success
The Huffington Post
Everyone knows cheetahs are blazingly fast. Now new research illustrates how their acceleration and nimble zigzagging leave other animals in the dust and scientists in awe. Researchers first determined that cheetahs can run twice as fast as Olympian Usain Bolt on a straightaway. Then they measured the energy a cheetah muscle produces compared to body size and calculated the same for Bolt, the sprinter. They found the cheetah had four times the crucial kick power of the Olympian.
