I sold my Mosin...didn't lose any money...actually made a couple bucks, but it was a small dollar deal.

I can maybe see another rifle in my future...and maybe a 1911.

At the match Saturday I was running guys through and this one guy had this 1911 with an awesome patina, on his last string of fire before holstering I asked him how long he had had it, said it was in his family since 1917. It was a beautiful piece and shot very well.

I need to handle on e bit, but for some reason I want one just to say I have one.

My understanding is they need to be set up right to run good, but once they are set up there great pistols.

As far as shooting well...the shooter has more to do with it than the gun. kopf's boy could out shoot me with anything that went bang.

You know what I mean.

Frank has thrown a few more pieces of lead than the rest of us...  combined.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

He probably could the very first time he picked up a gun.

Not much of a shot myself, although I don't practice and don't really care all that much. But that's  me.

I just shoot targets...

and raccoons that kill my ducks.

Mostly just targets here to.

If that target is alive, it is because I intend on eating it.

I'm alright at shooting critters, which is about the extent of my needs.

Though it took five shots to kill the bat in the house, and I hit it with all of 'em.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.
