I picked up a Walther G22 on trade at the last show. It's a blast to shoot. Accurate as all get out. Who'd of thunk it? Such a short package and a 20" barrel. Only thing wrong is the lack of a Hi Cap Mag. Well, I couldn't resist. So, I took a P22 spare mag and chopped off the top of it and a new G22 mag and chopped off the bottom of it. Added some stainless weld and "BAM" a 17 round mag that fits the rifle and the pistol. The picture doesn't do it justice. I can shoot a gun better than I can a camera.[:D] I can fit 20 in it but the first three don't feed so, a 17 round mag it is.

I've cleaned all the leather/rubber/glue mess off of the butt. The guy at the local gun shop has a used Pachmayer recoil pad. It is in perfectly good condition, but just old enough to look not-too-out-of-place on the gun.
I've installed recoil pads before and I enjoy doing the work, but this one has me kind of nervous. It's Great-Grandad's gun, after all, and I can hear him just over my shoulder at every phase of the operation. "Go slow, son. You're not killin' snakes here." Sure, it's good advice. But this is the kind of family heirloom we had to earn the right to use. Now I'm entrusted with modifying so a new generation of shooters can earn the right.
Wish me luck.

Start a garden. I know it sounds nuts, but this is where a kid can work in peace and talk with you at the same time, plant a seed and watch life come from that work, and eat it!
I used to like going out in the evening (dark) and teach them to listen to every sound they hear and the ones they miss, look at the stars,ect.
Build a rocket from a kit and let him set it off!
Let him drive the lawn tractor and tow you behind by a rope and cardboard.
Go fishing!
Dig and build a pond in the yard.
Build a fire.
daddo--The simple things. There's nothing better. In fact, a lot of the things you suggested we already do. With two lakes in town here, we go fishing at least twice a week and because they're so close we ride our bikes there. The garden we have is coming along pretty good. The watermelons still aren't very big, but we're hopefull. Your post is kind of spooky actually. Not including the pond idea, you pretty much described our time together to a "T". Have you been watching our home movies too?
