Hey Geezer. Welcome from Nebraska. Yeah, we are all struggling with the ammo crunch. Enjoy that Henry.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Welcome to the forum.
What did you teach prof?
I would hope you got a box or two from the shop who sold the gun.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

1). Split appointment....
- one half clinical: anatomy & pathophysiology
- one half for criminal justice program: forensics - e.g., ballistics & firearms, explosives, odontology, blood spatter analysis, and my specialty - osteology. Also consult in osteology cases.
2). Nope - LGS had no ammo

Re: geezerjohn
Answer to my post...
Some of the answer might be just a tad over my head. Lol. So, I looked it up.
I knew what most of it was....
Osteology:
the study of the structure and function of the skeleton and bony structures
