Well Honey, it followed ...

Post by Abnermal » Fri Jan 05, 2018 9:48 pm

me home. 1894 Marlin in .44 Magnum. Yes I know it isn't a Henry but I like it anyway. Already have dies and components to load my own. Now the fun begins!

Did not have a Marlin 44 mag follow me home. But, I had a Henry 30-30 follow me. So, I can relate. My wife, not so much. She thinks one is more than enough. But, my daughter did buy me a gun case for it. So, it is becoming part of the family.

As William Blake, the poet, wrote: "You never know how much is enough until you've had too much."

I'm not there yet with guns. May never get there, in fact.

So... now lemme get this straight. “Home” means it’s home, as in with you? We need pics!

Gonna have to warm up a bunch first before I do any outdoor shooting! Gives me time to scrape up some dinero for a Leupold VX-R 1-4 optic!
