Having stalkers is like a badge of honor around here....  The jackhole looking up property tax records was funny. The one calling my work, not so much. But, I'm in a good spot now with my boss and bosses boss, and what goes around usually comes right back at ya. Eventually. 😁 Yeah, that seemed to be bordering on criminal if you ask me.

Your boy did the heavy lifting. Shot a nice 8pt with that opitma and weaver scope. Slumlord had a spectator seat on the creek bank. Outta the blue thing. Had about a 4 to 5 second reaction time to get my azz off the creek bank and get in Kneeling position. Heart shot about 45 50 yds out on the trot with a 270gr sabertooth. Went to the Darkside inline... Hung up the TC Renegade. 50 Next spring a member down in the ML forum clued me in about 3 laminate Kodiak pro Mag. 45 new old stock in a place out in Utah. That fall on post. Circa 2013. Ran into a old PAC/ admin section NCOIC from 1/502nd and his son out hunting in Area 5. He had a SG. Boy about 11 or 12 Carrying a single shot. 410 with a bead and pumpkin ball slugs. Knew what I could do then. Took the 209 outta the Kodiak. Let the kid hold it and shoulder it. Gave him some pointers, quick class stuff. If the kid could handle the Kodiak and shoulder it with out fatigue which he could. He could handle the optima and its ergonomics way easier. Talked to his dad off to the side. Told him I had a optima .50 with a weaver 4x and all the shooting needs to go along with it. Zeroed ready to shoot and he needed a good rifle to have better success than a .410 with slugs. Spoke of how you and him gonna feel if he shoots at a deer with that .410 and it turns out ugly fast. He seen the sense of it all. Was thankful. Kid had no idea. I left and went to the truck. Met him the next day and passed the optima forward. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Sold mine for like 200 bucks.
Shoulda have kept it.
Should have kept that mid 70,s Hawken I had a couple yrs ago also.
Triple lock double finger sear model.
Fully engraved all brass
Barrel maker out of Montana, Maltese cross marked can't remember the guys name.
TC assembled from sources, before they had everything up and running in Rochester.
Sold that at a good profit.
Took a little while but found the guy who knew what it was being from the mid 70,s window.
I go through guns like grass through a goose.
Very few make core group status.
Pick up a firearm.
Shines in my eyes for a brief time.
Then when practically of use hits me.
I send it down the road.

Mine was a Christmas present from father-so it stays[hanging on wall]
Other than giving son a couple of rifles when he moved out I've let go of two.
.357 security six
M77 25-06, walnut/blue, ambidextrous safety
Wish I'd never let them go.

Seafire called Craig Alaska fish and game office to tell them stick was poaching lol. While he had them on the phone chit chatted with them for awhile about stick.  yeah, but you forget, I like Schtick.... Yes I did that, and posted about that to rattle his cage...but did find out he was locked up for 30 days for something else... plus the gal I talked to was a good friend of his ex wife... the gal I talked to was the one that Swamplord posts a pic of right above your post... aww but beyond that.. I've been pretty mellow... the only other time was when I called YOUR wife and talked to her for about an hour or so... you were out of town at the time... doing Army stuff...

Saw on twitter, some old Chink guy won the grand prize...Sum Long Dong... I believe was his name...
