Any of you guy around the age of 19,melt lead, and play xbox 360?

[letsmeltlead2693]

Any of you guys around the age of 19, melt lead, and play xbox 360? If so, what is your gamer profile?

[btroj]

Most here melt lead. Bet few are under 30 and many won't even know what an Xbox is!

My daughter has a PS3 and doenst cast bullets. Sorry I can't help.

[starreloader]

Double the 30 and add a few more.... Xbox 360?????? My VCR is still blinking 12:00... And don't have a cell phone either.

[midnight]

The grandkids should be able to fix your VCR, at least they fix mine.

Bob

[letsmeltlead2693]

I'd like to find someone that does have an xbox 360 account, because I bug everyone I talk to about lead and need someone with the same interests.

[Jim Flinchbaugh]

My VCR is still blinking 12:00...


Ditto for me, BUT!
I do applaud a young whippersnapper such as yourself for being into guns and lead
Kudos's to you

[starreloader]

I let the older grandaughter who is 9 keep this computer running... She just backed up all the junk on here and expanded the memory... I LIKE THE BLINKING RED 12:00..

[runfiverun]

runfiveslittlegirl is a member here [she's not 19 only 18]
she does some of my smelting and occasionally some casting and reloading.
she is much better at the unloading part however.
we have a playstation no games for it though,
sorry dude.

[letsmeltlead2693]

That is OK. I will just stick to talking to you guys on the forum and melting lead, since I don't need to be on those games all the time since no one on them talks about lead. Melting lead is more fun in my opinion than playing video games.

[leftiye]

I play X Box some. Mostly to avoid boredom, I don't go online. But I'm closer to 70 than you are to 20. I'd be very (emphasis) surprised if very many young game heads reload, more surprised if they cast. Yup, that'd be a conversation - between a 70 year old and a 20 year old on the X Box site talking about melting lead.

[429421Cowboy]

Sorry... 19 but i don't play 360:( hoping to buy a console soon to play with the ladyfriend but i'm not big into it and don't have enough dough to float both hobbies!

[gandydancer]

my grandson could have helped but due to texting he had to have his thumbs reset.

[KaliforniaRebel]

Rats! I just cracked 32 so I fall into the "Majority"

[Jim]

I usually open my boxes by cutting around the edges of the top instead of 'corner to corner' across the middle.

[NikB]

Ha this is too funny! I'm 23 but I have a Playstation.

Sent from my brain using ESP

[blademasterii]

I'm 31 and my gamer id is blademasteriii. That being said I don't have a lot of time to play these days. Prob been more than a week since i turned it on even.

[southpaw]

I guess I am getting closer the the majority at 28. Never did get into the box or station games. Not that I didn't have fun when I was playing at a friends I just couldn't see spending money and time on them that I could use for my shooting addiction. That and I prefer to be outside. Now that I am married with a couple rugrats running around there is even less time. I should also mention that I don't even have a cell phone. Why do I need one, everyone else has one.

I just get more satisfaction from going for a hike, reloading, shooting, restling with the kids ect than I do playing video games. It is just too much fun being outside. Its my Dads fault really.

Jerry Jr.

[boltons75]

Well, makes me feel seasoned now, 37 soon, so I'm in the majority now. Played some games years ago, but have found other things to spend my time doing. Shooting, reloading, casting, family, camping, hunting, geocaching. Not much time for games anymore.

Always carry, never tell.

[Bret4207]

19, I remember 19. I spent the spring I was 19 at Parris Island. But that was in 1979.

Sorry 2693, I can't help you on the games stuff. The last game I was into was "Fighter Pilot" on my original Gateway PC in 1997. It won't even play on my other computers. I liked it, it was simple and fun. I've tried playing the other games the kids have had on the Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Xbox, Playstation. I never could see just what I was supposed to be doing for Sonic the Hedgehog. I kind of liked the oldests "Band of Brothers" he got for the Wii thing. He sold or traded that for something illegal, I'm sure. I don't have much use for the modern world. The Wii keeps my little ones dancing around on cold days, that's good I guess.

[avogunner]

Bret, I was also at Parris Island (2n Bn) in the summer of 1979, but I was just a lad at 18. Went back in 1990 as a DI (1st Bn). That was my wife's favorite duty station by the way. We lived in SNCO housing on the island.....she claimed she could hear me yelling from across the parade deck. Good times!!
Semper Fi!

[Beerd]

NikB,
If your ESP is functioning, welcome to CastBoolits!

[Freightman]

I have a pair of shoes that are older than 19-sorry.

[DragoonDrake]

I am 26 and have a Wii. I even play it sometimes. Does that count.

[midnight]

I think I know how to play PONG. Does that count.

Bob

[mold maker]

I'm more than 19 X 3 +13=old. Its been 30+years since I used to play Atari with my son. Most fun game he had was Chicken. Lordy that was a life time ago.

[letsmeltlead2693]

It cool to have polite reactions from from y'all people. I too am interested in lead melting more than playing games, but when its raining there is nothing else to do as my dad wants me to melt outside because of insurance won't cover house if it burns down from me melting lead in it. So I play at night and when it is raining.

[9.3X62AL]

LML, good to see younger folks getting involved in the boolit pouring bit at younger ages. I was 26 when I first got involved, and 30 years older now. Most of my kids are gamers at some level, and look upon Dad as a larger kid with an older set of toys. That isn't a new development, by any means.

As others have said, I was more about getting outdoors and hunting or fishing at age 19, and still am.

[DragoonDrake]

I have one for you. I am more interested in being outdoors than my father is. He has all the stations xbox 360, PS3. I had bought the Wii for him but he was not interested in moving his arms around that much. My father is only 70 but he has a bad hip.

[birdadly]

Far from 19, but I'm 36 and I do both at times... melt lead and play a little COD MW2 on the Xbox a little bit here and there. It doesn't take me long to MUTE most everyone that is using a microphone though as it annoys me. I don't mean to stereotype, but I seem to end up with either younger teens being teens or slightly older people being mean and swearing a lot. I just like to sit down and enjoy shooting everyone :) -Brad

[cummins05]

I play Xbox all the time but I just left my Xbox live account go expired I am 25 and love call of duty mw3 and killing zombies is awesome also

[Sasquatch-1]

VCR light, Heck I can't even figure out how to thread my Reel To Reel tape recorder. :shock:

[338RemUltraMag]

well LML I am 24, love casting, shooting and play Xbox a lot. I'm also happily married with one child have a good job AND not on Gov't assistance...

This must mean I am the TRUE ODDBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anywho, my gamer tag is : Holtschneider

I mostly play BF3 and don't have MWF3 I also got a few racing games as well. But as of March 6th my Xbox attention span will be solely on Mass Effect 3... lol

Just lemmie know what your gamertag is and I will accept the friend request, as long as you don't mind playin with my Dad either who is closer to 50 and better than Me! lol

[JeffinNZ]

Bless. Are any of us 19? That's gold.

19 short of retiring?
19 pass retiring?
19 hours short on sleep!

Listen kid. When people around here refer to the tinsel fairy visiting sometimes they mean they had a lead pot explosion. MOSTLY they are talking about the colour of their hair!

LOL. Welcome aboard.

[frkelly74]

we have a wii. It only has bowling pool archery tanks and a flyover game that I personally like. The rest is too much jumping around for me.

[Bret4207]

VCR light, Heck I can't even figure out how to thread my Reel To Reel tape recorder. :shock:

HAR!:lol: Yup, and this CD stuff is a passing fad, 8 tracks and vinyl are going to make a comeback....someday!

[Bret4207]

Semper Fi!

Ah, the good old days in the Thumpin' Third Bn, Paltoon 3002. I ran into a guy up here in the Marine Corps League that was in Platoon 3016 or something like that, the next series after mine. He got there a week after I did. What's more, I ran into a guy as the NYSP Academy in my class there that I used to deliver airplane parts to on Okinawa! Small world. I wonder whatever happened to some of those guys? I tried finding my old CWO4 Gunner I used to work for, I'm sure he retired to Okinawa where he and his Okinawan wife owned a home. Probably dead and gone by now.

[Tom-ADC]

I'm 70 and cast boolits and play around with the Xbox 360 we have in the spare bedroom. Its set up for the grandkids when they visit, but I like some of the shooter games.

[smokemjoe]

65, I see I have xm radio in my new Chev. eqonot, Thats really something, Casted since 1960

[429421Cowboy]

It is pretty cool to see i'm not the only 19yo on here, sometimes it doesn't seem to matter and other times it does... Like when i try and name the presses made from 1949 to date! But it's all relative, and i have never had any trouble from another member here about my age. Other forums yes, here is a great bunch of guys that are patient but don't always assume you're a total newb either!

[MtGun44]

Good to hear from a youngster that casts, but most of us are triple that or more and
wouldn't know an xbox from a cereal box. I'm a computer guy, so I do know a lot about
them, but never found the games even fractionally as interesting as reality. Also, I have
a very bad view of them from a family member that crawled off into the video games and
has yet to re-enter reality in a meaningful way. Hate the things, actually for what they
did to him.

Bill

[toddn84]

Im 23, melt lead, but I play ps3

[Ole]

Wow! I just thought what I was doing when I was 19. I had just joined the AF reserves and was in training most of that year.

Time sure flies!

[ilcop22]

26, but sorry - PS3 for me.

[JonB_in_Glencoe]

when I was 19, I played video games, Reagan was president, my game console...the Atari 2600, I still have it, but I don't think it can get on-line :)
Jon

[Colorado1135]

I play BF3, MW2, WaW and o rare occasions MW3. I'm 32 as well, and the 360 is a good way to kill an hour or two that doesn't take any preptime or clean up. same name there if you want to play sometime

[jdgabbard]

letsmeltlead2693, I play online. But I won't be logged on for at least another month and a half. I'm on a deployment overseas, and don't have reliable internet.

Feel free to send me a PM, and we'll talk more. Although I'm about 30....

[44fanatic]

Oh heck, I just bought a used car thats older than letsmeltlead2693 for running between Nashville and Clarksville.

If'n I were down there in Nashville, I would be spending my time out on Percy Priest or Old Hickory fishing instead of playing Xbox.

[Linstrum]

Sorry, I don't play xbox 360, but you will no doubt find someone here who does.

Hmmm, what ever happened to Pong? It didn't exist yet when I was 19, it wasn't invented until I was 22. Been melting lead since I was 14, though. Outside of road kill, my gamer profile is mule deer, antelope, and elk. Black bear once in awhile. We also have oryx, but I can't afford the exotic game tag.

rl 1077

[filric48]

I switch from Xbox 360 to melting lead and casting.

[Jason30-30]

I'm 26 but I bought the Ps3 and don't play it at all as I work very late.

[thx997303]

I'm 23 gamertag is sniperthx1

Send a request and who you are. I mostly play BF3 but ill party up with others and bs while I play so...yeah.

[Agent1187]

24 here, but my Xbox has seen a huge downturn in usage since Microsoft cut access to Halo 3 lobbies to those with *only* the Halo 3 disc. I have since reverted to my Nintendo 64 ways once more.

[DeanWinchester]

I used to play a LOT until I realized what a waste of time it was. I mean, all those hours I could have spent casting or loading, I'll never get them back. *sigh*

[Ajax]

Lets see at 19 i was in the persian gulf at general quarters due to mine sighting.
not much of a console gamer.


Andy

[Mal Paso]

59, Melt Lead, Play XBox 360, Gamer Tag: the hoist

Finished Hitman in Professional Mode

[Jamesconn]

I feel your pain my family thinks I'm crazy I'm almost 17 gamer tag= Jamesconn

[Stick_man]

Wow, when I was 19, Reagan got shot. Then I left the country for a while. (the 2 events were NOT related). My, how time flies when you are having fun. I get onto the 360 for maybe 3 hours each month now. Mostly for some quality time with my daughter playing Halo. Many other things that I feel are a much better usage of my time than playing video games.

[montana_charlie]

Turned 19 in February, 1965. In March I reported for Air Force basic training.
What's an X box?

[lead-1]

when I was 19, I played video games, Reagan was president, my game console...the Atari 2600, I still have it, but I don't think it can get on-line :)
Jon

I still have one also, if you find a way to get it online let me know and we can maybe go a few rounds on Chopper Comand, Duck Hunt or Carnival, lol.

Boy, wouldn't we be showing them young'uns a thing or two. :Fire:

The first home gaming system we had was the good old intelivision, then we upgraded to the colecovision with the Atari attachment. Those were the days there.

[Crash_Corrigan]

phisquedisc9 on x box 360 at a ripe 69 and have been casting and reloading since '91.

The DVD drive is mammarries up at the moment and I will probably upgrade to kinnect for the exercise.......

[Ramar]

I played "Winky Dink".........
Ramar

[Linstrum]

I played "Winky Dink".........
Ramar

Now THAT'S a blast from the past! "Winky Dink and You" has been touted as the very first interactive video game, played using special crayons to draw on a clear green vinyl sheet placed over the TV screen. I recall that it came out in about 1954, so that is going on 60 years ago!

[gunese]

me. I often play WoW (http://www.live4mmo.com/wow-game-time-card) and Guild Wars. So have you played these two games?

[horsesoldier]

I was in Iraq when I was 19.I used to play Operation Flashpoint on the computer, in fact thats how I learned my threat vehicle ID.Knew it before I went to OSUT!

[Jammersix]

I don't melt lead, I don't play Xbox, but I'm 58, so we're very close in age.

[Recluse]

When I was 19, this was an electronic game.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=97908&d=1393404390

This was how we listened to our music, especially in our cars.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=97907&d=1393404368

This was our telephone.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=97909&d=1393404406

And our cable tv--13 whole channels, plus two UHF channels if you got the extra antenna.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=97910&d=1393404422

And finally, our word processor we used to type and send messages.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=97911&d=1393404613

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to rub some Absorbine Jr on my arthritic knees, gulp some Bayer aspirin, put the heating pad on my back and try to get some sleep. I do have a digital alarm clock, though. :)

Life was simple back then.

both my BIL and I play xbox.. both of us reload; tho only i cast.

my best man dose all three when he has time after farming.

but guns and shooting are better the xboxing.. (you have to do something in the cold dark of winter)
