What on earth are you talking about??? I have a dozen rifles. And a box full of medals from years past target shooting. My dad, uncle, and I, used to hunt deer, wild boar, duck, geese, and pheasant. But no more. I don't even eat meat anymore. Other than an occasional couple of hours at a local range, all of my guns are locked up and out of sight. Nearly all of my rifles are custom made or modified by my dad. Winchester actions, glass bedded barrels, etc. Including an M1 for competing against the Army. Browning and Winchester shotguns. S&W matched pair 38 Special and .22 . Years of testing to attain the perfect loads. Boy... brings up fond memories of when my dad was alive. I don't know why I'm talking about this... sorry... but Marc, you really took me by surprise! I have absolutely no recollection of our first interaction. I would never call you a loser when it comes to firearms. Did you save the message? Are you sure it wasn't Oddumnd? Your friend, I hope, Jim
