Big Uncle---I can assure you that I'm not an anti-gun nut or any kind of anti, other than anti BO! I will be 65 in August, started hunting and shooting when I was five thanks to my Dad who got me started, and I haven't looked back since then. I am basically what you would call "obsessed" with hunting and shooting and I guess that's why anyone who does differ with me isn't on my favorites list. I'll quit now because it's obviously just pissing people off that in my mind don't have the objectivity and time to even listen to the inventor of a product and what he has to say, so good day and I hope all of you naysayer's Remingtons are always pointed in the proper direction if/when something happens and they go off! Peace!!!
