WTB Pit Blind
 
Looking for a three or four man pit blind. Will have both of my sons hunting next year and need to get everything ready. In Lake Charles but will drive to pick up for the right deal. Can e-mail firesafety3ATmsn.com

Thanks!

The Quirks' in Washington make top notch blinds.

For a top notch price too but they are nice. Last time I bought one G&H in Gueydan had some for a pretty good price but that was 8 years ago probably.

depends on where its going. i would shy away from the fiberglass for rice fields

Fiberglass will float on you! Let me know what the going rate is and I may be able to weld one up for you at a comperable rate. Need a drawing with dimensions though.

True but, it's much easier to make anchors on steel than it is glass.

true, true:D

Btw, I'd be glad to build a glass blind as well! That would be just as easy and likely a lil cheaper.

Fiberglass isn't good?
 
Really??? We have some blinds in our Holly Beach marsh that have been in there since 1980. Yes, even 2 hurricanes later. They anchor VERY easy if you have 2x6's molded into them. I promise you D that our fiberglass blinds will outlast a metal pit by far, as in several years. The sun has not damaged a one of them. Nothing against metal pits or welders, but metal pits can cave in and rust wayyyyyyy to easy.
