"Old" New member

Post by Die Judicii » 28 Oct 2013, 2:17 am

Hello to all members,
I have just joined this forum, and now have to familiarize myself with its workings.
I am looking forward to being able to contribute, as well as call upon other members
from time to time for information and advice.
I have missed being able to do this since the untimely demise of another forum, which
I think was due to sheer bloody mindedness that penalized the vast majority that were
doing the right thing.
However, we have to move on, and start making new tracks.
So I'm looking forward to participating and maybe even making some new friends. :D
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing!
I've come to realize that,,,,, the two most loving, loyal, and trustworthy females in my entire life were both canines.

Welcome.

It's a good forum here, none of the d**kheads or politics of some of the others.

Enjoy.

thanks for the warm welcome.
I'm a lefty so I got less toys to chose from. I got a savage mark 2 and a Rossi CJ .44mag and I got the better half a Erma eg 71 .22 and we will be getting here a 30-30lever to hunt with. She wants to be a cowgirl :p I'm also looking at making my Rossi for tacticool in the near future.

Lmfao, that was the very first game console I owned. I was like 6... That's going way to fair back. Wish I was 22 back then. Would of got to have a play with a semi auto... Bloody Howard.

And yea, she doesn't want a mag cal for her lever due to the Rossi having to much balls for her to handle as she's a small girl in stature.

She shot a friends 30-30 at the range and fell in love with the amount of recoil. Only problem is she wants a smooth action, all the ones we have looked at or shot have been really rough and you had to beat it around. No good for follow up shots...
