Hopefully I’ll be leaving my part time job in a few months and that will give me more time to make smoke. God it felt great to get out the other day abd shoot several of my White Mzl’s. Now when I do retire I just hope the little boss doesn’t have a big list of things for me to do. Grin

Don't count on it Ed. After I retired I had so much to do the first 6 months that I wondered how I ever had time for a full time job! Even now I find things to do. I'm in the process of laying about 600 sqft of 6"x24" tile in my house. Most of the laminate I pulled up is going to go into my finished basement!
Maybe I should not retire then? At least I'll get paid for my work. LOL

Right now I'm about half way through laying about 850 sqft of 6"x24" ceramic tile. My knees feel hamburg and my hands and back are so sore. I think my right thumb is broke or I got a severe case of arthritis in it. I'm going to go get a brace for it tomorrow.

I have severe arthritis in my trigger finger no more double action shooting for me pain, and cant make a fist. I can hardly bend it. My shoulder replaced so no hard recoil. I make smoke with my 36 cal rifle and pistols

That sucks John. Is the shoulder limitation a forever thing? My brother-in-law has a .45 TC Omega. It shoots lights out with 65 grains of Blackhorn and 240 grain XTP's - very low recoil and very effective on deer.
