you're shooting the critters in your backyard with a .22 ?

tbh, I'd probably shoot the possums and raccoons that eat my bird seed but I'd leave the birds alone.

Possums are extremely beneficial creatures. They eat tons of ticks. Including an article below. Not sure how they are eating your bird seed. My bird feeder is hung by super thin but strong twine from a branch away from the tree so that squirrels can’t jump on to them or climb down.

yeah, I know - I'm not going to be shooting any of them. my bird feeders are on my deck and when the raccoons and possums get up there, my dogs go nuts.

No. The second part of that is talking about a trail cam. I don’t shoot the birds in my back yard in my HOA neighborhood. LOL.

Sorry man. I have a group of friends who I am in a text group with in Georgia and every damn one of them is sick with the flu and some kind of respiratory deal. They all are close to 2 weeks with it


We have become pretty good friends with our new neighbors (From Long Island) here and both of them are sick AF. Both of us and them are pretty much in Florida alone. My wife has been taking them dinner every night for almost a week. Tehy both still have fevers.

The conversations between my country arse wife and the long island lady is worth the price of admission.



Hope you get better soon bro

Wife and son had step throat for a few days last week. I got a fever but that was it. I ran a report on my direct reports and we were about 60% staffed the first full week of Jan with various things going around. We’re typically around 93% on the team level. About as bad as it’s been the last couple of years

I just have to keep my wife from giving it to me. I work alone and pretty much live away from people. I was in and out of the gun show yesterday and was using the hand sanitizer everytime I saw it.


People were hacking and coughing like crazy in there.


Wife works at the hospital and has been at work this week so Ive been staying away from her.

Hope all you bitches are getting well. Keep that shite to yourself. Neighbors are still not well.

Heading to the range for a while today then watching some NFL. Probably wont catch a lot of the BB game today. Timing got us.

Wife was lazy this morning and I have been up since 5:30am. A year or so ago, I purchased a course/class to help me get my USCG Captains license and I activated it early this week. I on on the clock to get it done. I have set myself a goal of taking the test by May 1st. I started taking some of the lectures and quizzes this week and man, this is not going to be easy. Going to take a hell of a investment by me. So I have been working on that all morning.


Hope you all have a great day and hope we can spank the dawgs.

I did .








Just got back from the range (indoor). Was a good place but very busy. My wife did great with her new toy and even did well with the 9mm Glock 43 and 17. I took my Springfield Saint AR but she didnt want to shoot it. I really need to get a red dot for my AR. Not crazy about the iron sights on it. I bought it a few years back and just have not spent any time with it since I bought it.


I am looking for a outdoor range (we have a lot of them near us) to try. I think it would be more enjoyable. Lots of people in there shooting today.


The Walther P22 was a blast to shoot. We only had a hour so it was hard to really spend any time with any of the guns we took. And I certainly need a speed loader for my glocks. LOL

Knew you’d love that Walther. Such great shooting guns.

Maglula loaders

Maglula has rifle and pistol loaders. Love mine.
