Duluth Minnesota/Superior Wisconsin. Either city is right on the border and right at the tip of Lake Superior, largest fresh water lake in the world. Great hunting/fishing. WI has lenient gun laws. Both cities 3hrs from Minneapolis/St.paul & 3hrs from Canadian border. Practically no crime. Great weather. Could go on and on.

Not that we wouldn't mind the company, but save yourself. |

He asked for "not too cold" and "low taxes"----and you recommend the Duluth, MN and Superior, WI area? You've got to be kidding! |

Niagara County is having VERY tough time of it. But if you are just looking to retire and shoot guns and chase deer we do have all four seasons-it is heartbreakingly beautiful here during deer season. |

I don't know the gun laws, but I always thought Western Montana might be the ticket.

Cannot really reccomend Iowa because we are not friendly to the full-auto crowd. If that is not a hindrance, southern Iowa may fit the bill if you happen to pick a county that will issue CCW permits.
Missouri might be a good choice, but they don't currently have CCW. My uncle recently relocated to Arkansas and loves it. Don't know anything about their gun laws though. |

Quoted: I don't know the gun laws, but I always thought Western Montana might be the ticket. Not a bad idea. I believe Wyoming has low taxes. There might be parts of either state that will have milder winters, though they can be cold and windy in most parts. Nebraska isn't too bad. I'll return there when I retire in 20-30 yrs. SW Nebr. is pretty temporate, not as dry as Arizona but a lot less humid than the eastern half. Nebr's biggest fault, gun laws wise, is NO concealed carry permits. Open carry is okay, class 3 full-auto is okay, heck-about everything is okay-just NO concealed carry. [:(] |

South Western Kentucky near Cumberland Lake.
The Dam release water keeps the Cumberland River cold enough to catch trout year round. Low population, CCW state, good turkey and deer hunting, good water, good land prices, and friendly people. In Russell County the main stay for farmers is cattle. It has lots of rolling pasture and the cost of living appears to be low. |

Wyoming has every one of those things you want. Lots of land, mild winters, low crime, prarie of mountains, and lots of friendly people. Gun laws are also great, and we are a shall issue state.

Southern Idaho fits all of your wants but maybe the not to cold one. Winters here are mild compared to some of the parts of the country but we still get the cold and some snow. We are classified as a frozen desert and don't get tons of rain but it's not anything like AZ.

Except florida [i][red][size=6]No Vacancies[/i][/red][/size=6][:D]....sorry OK......North Florida...... full auto/ccw friendly moderately low taxes. Great fishing, both fresh and salt water. Property in the central northern portion of the state {Live Oak area} is real reasonable. Lots of Wallyworlds. Not to cold and not to hot (most of the time)[:D]. About an hour's drive out of Tallahassee and about an hour and a half out of Jacksonville. Fortyfive minutes to Valdosta Ga. Good Luck. |
