    Default Hey gang!

    Haven't been able to spend much time here lately. Due to shift change. Economy caused Company to cut my day run, so I bumped back to nights. Go in around 1 pm and get home around midnight or 1 am.

    Everything else about the same except a little good luck! Local sportsman's club had a raffle. I bought $5 in tickets. Won the second prize a mossberg model 702 .22 semi auto rifle, and the 6th. prize a Orion flare pistol. Picked them up today will TRYto post pics. soon
    If by what I have learned over the years, allow me to help one person to start to prepare. If all the mistakes I have made, let me give one person the wisdom that allows them to save their life or the life of a loved one in an emergency. Then I will truly know that all the work I have done will have been worth every minute.

    Wow! Good for you! I guess you won't be needing those matched .45s any longer. Just send 'em on up. I'll find some way to get rid of them for you.

    Sorry Rick. Found out they were actually a pair of match grade 1911's MAN!! they are the sweetest shooting pair of handguns I have ever shot. I doubt they will go anywhere for a while.

    When you get as old as I am you've learned long ago to sleep with one eye open. You never WHO might be stealing your twinkies.

    Only thing I ever won was a cardboard cutout of Sammy Sosa back when that might have been a prize. It scared the dog so I had to get rid of it. Winning two prizes is very impressive...were you the guy picking the names?
