Right under my nose

Our neighbor across the street is moving out and going to North Carolina where he has enough property to shoot on without the neighbors calling the cops. I have talked to him 3 times in the 2 1/2 years we have lived here. He came over to ask if I could use some scrap lumber that he had sitting around. I said sure and he and I carried it over here and I asked if he had any lead he wanted to get rid of. He said no but wanted to know what I wanted lead for so I told him Bullets. So it turns out he was a competitive shooter 10 years ago, when the space program still had a private range and held matches. He has a Kimber tricked out and did load his own ammo but bought his bullets to load. I am kicking myself now for not getting to know this fellow shooter better and now it is too late. blea!

It happens that way sometimes. Never too late to start a friendship, however.

Its good to know your neighbors, be it good or bad. My neighbors know me but only one we discuss gun things and hunting. But I know my neighbors are good people.

My neighbor on one side of me bought the house a couple of years ago. He was born here and lived here all his life, so I assumed he was into guns. We’d chat for a few minutes once every few months or so until we got into a conversation about guns last summer. He pulled out his .308 and I went and got my .308. Both bolt guns. We also discovered that we both reload. We plan on going shooting one of these days. It’s nice having a neighbor like that.

I have a Hillery supporter for a neighbor, he also is employed by the city. I know he's against the 2nd. Good thing my Son and Daughter have homes behind and on the other side. It pays to keep the enemy outnumbered.
I can't even melt /WWs when he's at home, but I'm retired and know his schedule.
