Good evening to you sir, I hope that the Palm Sunday weekend was a good one for you.
Thanks for taking the time to share the story you wrote, I very much enjoyed it.
We've got two rifles with the eagle perched on the world proof marks and I've often wondered what trail has led them to the interior of BC.
Thanks again and all the best to you this Easter.

Thought provoking. Thanks for posting.
Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote.

Thank you. I have two WWII Mausers - one rebarreled to 7x57, one rebarreled with a new Israeli surplus 8x57. Both have Timney triggers and have Leupold scopes. They are my go-to deer rifles.
