Hey Carl, now you DO own some long guns! If I recall correctly, you didn't have anything but handguns before?...

 

[slippingaway]

I'm also happy that I could help out in this. What they say is true, sometimes it's better to give than to receive. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, and I've never even met you. Enjoy them!

I have a .303 British my Dad bought in about '60 as a Deer gun. I have
a couple of s/n 100 Mini-14's besides the one recently acquired.

I know more about being a Astronaut than I know about these "smoke poles"!

I've just received an opportunity to LEARN!

Karl - now you really need to keep buying 100s when they show up :wink:
