I am thinking (or maybe hoping) that it might be in his attic.

That would be very good news.

yes it would, heres hoping for you bro, lol,dt

We have one shotgun, that's all you need is one. It will get the job done. We have a lot of little ones around so no handguns.

I was given a 20 gauge by my uncle when I turned 12, I also bought a 30-30 pump at the same time. Since then I have collected a .38 colt, a 9mm Ruger semi auto which I hate, a 30-06 and a 12 gauge pump.

I love hunting. I love spending time in the woods. I love teaching my children about shooting, gun safety, and nature.

I've got a shotgun, a rifle, and a four-wheel-drive . . .
there's some other words and a .45 . . .

Let's see, I deer hunt with either a Ruger Super Blackhawk or a Benelli SBE2 with rifled slug barrel. An injury has forced me to give up archery. (I have a bow for sale) I squirrel hunt with a .22 rifle, a .22 pistol, or I have a Mossberg 500 combo shotgun with multiple chokes on the game barrel. The Mossberg also came with a rifled slug barrel with iron sights. I've never shot it with that barrel, but I keep it as a "loaner." The Mossberg 500 is also my dove & pheasant gun, even though it's a pump. I've got a Mossberg 590 named Cheney that I keep in a secure, undisclosed location. I've got a couple smaller handguns, and a few relic pieces that I inherited.

I keep EVERYTHING locked up.

The 223 packs an incredible whallop!!!! My son and I made a video shooting cantaloupes, and other fruit and completely disintegrated upon impact! It is amazing that a round that small can do that much damage.

Now I know what the DC snipers were doing to people. Incredible!!!

Why do you shoot fruit, what has it ever done to you that would make you wanna blow it up?

I suppose you prefer to construct a fantasy world for yourself in which all fruit is harmless, kind, and sweet.

Let me tell you, sister, that when fruit turns on you it becomes plumb ornery.
