Well, never been big on guns. always had them but just for hunting. Getting were not as many days left so I knew what Henry's were and always wanted one. My Girlfriend surprised me on my birthday with a Big Boy ( appropriate :) 45 Long Colt. Gave my son Every other gun I had except my 45 long Colt Smith and a 40 cal I keep in my truck. Oh, and a Snake charmer because I got tired of missing them. I wish I could figure out the Avatar thing. I am the second coming of Rooster Cogburn. An Old one eyed fat guy :)
