New Old Guy in MI

Post by Frjeff » Mon May 20, 2019 6:36 pm

Just ordered my first lever action ever: Henry Standard Classic (H001). Will be in my nearest Cabala’s on the 28th and I’ll pick it up when I return from an Alaska trip (June 8). Ordered to get the current sale price. I’m looking forward to some fun having once ever shot pumps, bolts and semi-autos. 75 years old, but still enjoy the fun and relaxing things.

Welcome from Nebraska. Alaska huh? You won't get much sympathy here for such an obvious problem. Hah! Enjoy your Henry!

Well, I hate to break it to you, but most of us around here are old guys.

No offense to those who aren't old, and those who aren't guys, just the way the demographics fall out. All are welcome.

And speaking of welcome, Welcome to you Frjeff.
