I've always fancied shooting. Since the ban (closing the door after the horse has bolted, but that's another debate) it's not an option any more. I have an air rifle which I used for rabbits (all for the pot)with some success but 'Nanny' is talking about taking that hobby away from us too. I'm sick to death of the government being unable to deal with a few loonies, making the rest of us responsible citizens suffer. I'll be glad when I'm away from here.
Oooops. That turned into a rant didn't it.

I have a smith & weston 9mm luger that I liked to shoot at the range. Pellet rifle and pistol now as well. Once Hubby #1 and I put up a target in the yard and were taking turns and we were sitting in lawn chairs using binoculars to see who did better. The wind blew over the plywood thing with the target on it and hubby looking through binoculars felt like it was falling on him and flew over backwards in his chair. I couldn't shoot straight after that.

Going back to lawnmowers.....how about a Husquvarna? Mine is fab. Really robust. Just keeps on going.

Feeling a bit puny in the gun department though.... only got a Beretta Silver Pigeon. Shared with a friend. For clays only. Too worried about killing real stuff cos I'm not that good a shot and don't want to wound only. Got dogs but they're not the retrieving kind..... more the chasing and killing kind!!
