Hey Bill,...I feel for you dood. NJ has been a playground for the looney lefties. But keep the faith. Here in NY the loonies are still kept at bay to some degree. Thank God I can fish and hunt and shoot from my backyard, and still take a lady to the "Mall" and get back home in 10 minutes :D .

I am blessed. My brother is in Real Estate, so  iffan you want to move to a spot so as u can shoot and shop within a couple minutes :D

I'm just sayin....

Hay Greg,



Thanks for the offer, but my wife has family all over south jerkey.

Get the picture. But I will keep your kind offer in mind ! in case she changes her mind.

I hear ya Dano! THe Bay Area is a nice place. Nice outdoors spots, good food, plenty of strange people to watch....And I too hate the traffic and prices for homes.
Hell, I bought my house 4 years ago and paid 380K for it. Thats D@MN good in the bay area, really crummy for anywhere else!

There's also the Anti-Gunners, Anti-Military, Protest Anythingers and plain old Dumb @sses to deal with as well!

I live in Lexington, Ky where an airgun or BB gun is considered a firearm and cannot be shot in my backyard because I am in the city limits. How chicken*_*_*_*_*_* is that? In fact the state Kentucky considers BBgun and  air guns firearms?
If the crazy who just shot up the campus as well as the other students he killed  had had airguns, the crazy would not had a chance to reload.  Just a thought.

While we are all on the subject of where we all are from, why don't we all update our info on our control panels. I sure makes it easy to know who is in your area when you would like to get together and shoot or hunt. I live in Belton South Carolina. About 15 miles from Anderson and 25 miles from Greenville..:)

He can find my house too... :D  :D  :)  :) Then there is our buddy Tommy (TCups). Now he finds his way here fairly frequently  also but I ain't never to sure what window to look out of to see where he's comin' from (his place) cuz he's got a couple of them.... one up in the mountains behind me and the other in the flatlands in front of me. He's not to far from "J" either. Glad to have them all  :)   but everyones welcome so "y'all come and see me when ya can". :)
