    Grandson will be shooting soon!

    Some know I was given a new grandson Aug 31st of this year, what a joy and what a hunk of man! At 4 1/2 months he is in 95% of everything, height, weight, head dia. last check up. I was having breakfast with the wife and grand daughter, when the she says" I've got your eyes grandpa and my brother has your tummy." I just smiled at her, the wife had all she could do to keep from spitting coffee all over the table.

    way to go!!! now you have to get him a first rimfire, rifle and shotgun. then you have to teach him reloading and cast boolits.

    Really nice!!

    Start hm on an air gun....a decent one. Cheap to shoot and it will teach him all he needs to learn about trigger control, sight alignment and follow through.....plus you can shoot in the basement.

    Envy you!

    C'mon Scott ain't no way he is related to you man..
    he is way too happy.

    I'm envious though, by the time I have a grandkid I'm just be teaching them to push my wheel chair.
    or their Mom will be wiping both of our chins.

    Awesome. My son is 11 months, he was 2 months premature. Everything is going great, cannot wait to teach him how to shoot.
