I doubt it will be a Nitro, Tracker, Ranger, Triton, or Stratos. Maybe a MOFISH!

I agree whole heartedly. 3 weeks of my life put on hold waiting for a verdict. I had started planning on spending Christmas laid up in stitches. No Alternative Deer season again this year. Having to face the decision of advanced treatments again. All kinds of things were running thru my mind. The biopsy was on nodes farther down the neck in the big muscle running up the collar bone. It would have been a tougher area to operate on. While I was at Siteman last week with the biopsy, I picked up my scans on CD from the last year. I read the PET report from the physician that interprets the scans, he had found a 5mm nodule on my lower right lung that had not showed up on other tests. None of the docs had bothered to mention that finding, just the lymph nodes. But it scared me more than anything else, that is where the cancer I had would end up as it progressed, lungs or bone. 14 months elapsed from first surgery till the second one, I have been worried that it spread elsewhere during that time outside of the neck area. When I spoke to them today, they cleared that up also. It was just a normal spot on the lungs for a man my age. And, since this was my first scan of the complete torso since March, it did no show anything anywhere else. I can be sure that it is not hiding somewhere else. It has been a rough 3 weeks of waiting.

The call finally came this morning around 9, Lymph nodes showed no sign of cancer. All clear, back to 8 months cancer free and going forward. A huge weight lifted off my shoulders after 21 days of waiting. I am sure those 21 days took a few months off the end of my life just worrying about it. 14 more clean months and I can call this episode of my life done. Thanks for all of the prayers. Went out and bought one lottery ticket this afternoon, don't want to spread my luck too thin....

The only thing I have seen goofy is not holding the rifle when shooting it. Just laying the rifle on a bag and shooting it tends to create flyers. Its the opposite recoil of the spring unloading to compress the air that makes the rifle jump before the air hits the chamber and sends pellet flying. I always make sure I have a tight grip on it, consistantly.

The next level of the airgun hobby. Prices are coming down as more jump on the bandwagon. https://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Diana_Stormrider_Multi_shot_PCP_Air_Rifle/4449/8647 https://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Air_Venturi_Air_Compressor_Electric_4500_PSI_310_Bar_110V/7458 https://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/AirForce_TexanSS_Big_Bore_Air_Rifle/4317 The last one has enough to take deer size animals.

No, not enough. We are talking scuba tank air pressure. 2500 to 3000 psi. It takes a special filtered compressor. Like BH says, either buy a tank and have it filled elsewhere, bicycle pump it, or buy a nice hi dollar compressor. It takes a big monetary commitment. Upside, real pressure that equals the firepower of a powder rifle with multiple shots. No cocking, pumping, or jacking around for about 20 full power shots. A real hunting weapon. Quiet and deadly.

Yours must be longer, mine only goes to the rib cage. They do tend to give one arm a workout. Be glad when the grand kid gets a set so he can cock them. My next goal is a PCP. But unless I invest in a really expensive air compressor, I will be using an expensive bicycle pump. At least it will work out a different set of muscles.

How many grandkids do you have or expect in the future? That is how I tend to justify my collection of knives, fishing rods, fly rods, boats, airguns, firearms, camping gear. I started using the excuse of son inlaws this year for firearms and it seems to work well. I never seem to pass up a good deal if I see one.

The breakbarrel will scatter a Simmons Scope on first shot probably. Walmart sells a Centerpoint scope that is rated for breakbarrels. There are several others, Hawke is a good one. 2 stage recoil is hard on a scope, the spring loaded piston causes a forward and backward recoil unlike a powder fired rifle. Most scopes are only designed to handle the rearward recoil of the powder rifles, they come apart when the piston unloads.

Do you have one of the type c mounts made for the RWS? My 34 came with a special one piece set of ring/base combo that locks everything down. Inside the rings there is sticky stuff to lock scope in ring. Breakbarrels need special scopes and mounts due to reverse recoil of spring.

Whats the inflatable bags for?? Does it have seatbelts?

Dam Plug, whats with all the v's???

I have too many to wait that long. I usually get my settled in on one afternoon session. I have a Gamo Maxium and several Stoegers. Most like the Crosman heavy pellets. I do have a S20 Stoeger that likes the Beeman wadcutter in 177. I can kill a bunny at 30 yards with it.

Slip a viagra in that one ear and see if it helps......

Not just any White Castle, the one on Gravois near Bevo Mill is the best.

Very nice.

Thats a lot of stuff in a little boat. Where do you pit the cooler?

Feather Craft on Manchester should have the 3/0 Uni Thread. Get the rest online. I live 2 hours from anything, I order it in off the net.

Don't ever toss the first fish in the livewell, he may be a loner. I have seen many first cast fish be the last ones. Red at night, sailor delight. Works for fishing too, front moving out.

Why not peas with pearl onions and mushrooms? The onions flavor the peas, mushrooms are mostly neutral in flavor.

Better to be out and puttering around than sitting at house.

I agree, who is going to write the ticket? MDC has a hard enough time doing what they do now. Its like a seatbelt in car. It may come with the stand but it is up to person to use it.

Mountain lions chased it here.

Did they fess up before or after this pic posted on F book?
