    I resorted to hunting rabbits the other day I was so desperate. In remarkable similarity to deer hunting, the rabbits all saw me before I saw them.

    I've been dying to shoot mine since Oct. 1st. Seems as if I was always in the wrong stand. My brother did shoot his 4 times though.

    I have it figured out, I have a walk out basement, so if I open the sliding glass door and stand back by the pool table I can set the target up 20yrd outside the door and get 30 yrd shots. Or if I shot over the table I could get even more but I am afraid my beer light(busch Susp.[;)]) might be in the way.
    The wifes gonna think I've lost my mind[:p].

    I wouldn't risk damage to the beer sign!! Other than that it sounds like a plan to me. [:D]

    So I did it. Shot out the door. works great and discovered the new peep I put on works even better. When I had it put in they told me I would need to resight. I have tighter groups now then I did before. I stuck four in the circle you can make with your thumb and middle finger. Thats better than I had so to those that are......stop laughing[:D]

    Oh I forgot, I told the wife what I did and she said "good job" but I think that means "thanks for not breaking the glass door."

    Taco- Lets see, This weekend I am going south to buy a new firearm (Sat.) then Sun. I have bids on side jobs to do. Next weekend..Hey I will be at Rocks again for my birthday, It is really on Mon. but we are goin on Sat. cause I don't want to do a week day and my daughters birthday is that Sunday. I can give you a time later if anyone(Central Il people of course)would want to come. I mean you out of staters are welcome but I hate to see ya drive that far.
    So I guess we can see what 3 weeks out looks like, I can't plan that far though. And all plans listed above are subject to change, She(the wife) is close to poppin'[;)]

    Not sure how to answer susp. hum I have two answers.

    1. just jump on the nearest interstate and drive east. when you get to the water keep going.

    2. I said "A" new weapon. singular. uno. one.

    After my FIRST million then I start to share... sorry y'all I got "wants" no "needs" and I'm a little greedy like that, but I did say I would share[:D]

    East to water [?] Singular, yes, I wouldn't expect more than one firearm on our first meeting. [:D][:D][;)]

    So what are you getting Bang? I hate to admit it, especially on here, but I would rather go buy a gun than a bow. [:0] Sure hope that statement doesn't get me banned. [:(]

    East to the water meant when you get to the ocean, keep driving. Sorry that didn't make sense, me and bud (wieser) had a little rendevous last night. Getting a .45, it is supposed to be a present for my birthday but since the wife always waits til the last minute I am going to go myself, well not really myself ENOS is going and getting a 9mm too.

    .45 huh. I don't like shooting semi auto's much, mainly because I can't hit anything[:I]. I like the big bore revolvers with 8+ inches of barrel hanging out there.

    Enos missed out. I had a P89 9mm in stainless last month. The gun had been fired but it sure wasn't much, clean as a whistle and not a mark on it. I had less than $250 in it, coulda made him a nice deal. [V]

    You know I really can't tell you why I want a .45 its just one of those things that I just want. does that make sense? I guess just to have one and to have something bigger than the .22 pistol. Maybe its because its cheaper than an AR[:D].

    Make sense? Of course it does. I don't have room for every gun I NEED, but I sure try to make room. [;)]

    Oh no, quote:because its cheaper than an AR [xx(] What can you do with those, besides burn up ammo. [:p]

    Ya I don't know what I will really like because don't have any handguns(yet) to judge against. But Bang wanted the .45 so I chose the 9mm so we can talk and see the differances and maybe shoot each others and not be the same ol' gun! [^] Can't wait though.[:p]

    I could get more than one shot off before the yote starts to run.

    All our farm & fleets closed or got bought out by tractor supply [}:)] I sure miss farm & fleet, I loved those stores. [V]

    Walmart is pretty cheap. I still buy my stuff from my local shop though, he's only a buck or two more a box, but he has treated me very well over the years. Guess I'm one who doesn't like change. [:D] I can go into Rick's and buy: a gun, chips, bait, beer, ammo, pop, jerky, milk, smokes, books, indian type stuff (??? I never asked), and windshield washer fluid. Now if that isn't reneck then I don't know what is. [:D][:D]

    I've got a good friend that owns a pawn shop and he has a ton of ammo that people leave when the sell or pawn guns then don't pick it up. ENOS, I need to get you and Bang hooked up with ammo from him, I can get it about half price for ya'll.
