    Yup, nice seeing and meeting your guys. Allen, thanks for the coffee and bagels. Sorry I didn't partake but I do appreciate it.

    I now have most of my firearms ready for winter hibernation,:(

    Too bad y'all are so far away.
    I've had to work every day since I took a new shooter to the range the other day and haven't had the chance to do more than two so far.
    I'm lookin' at 9 more...

    WE really had a good day playing with chemicals and gun patches. I hate going to Allens as he is the devil. He puts temptation in front of me and I am weak. He knows it.....:)

    I should have said "three"...but I didn't count the one I cleaned tonight because I only re-cleaned it up because I'm selling it tomorrow.
    You know...like getting new flooring and a fresh coat of paint before selling your house. :):

    I thought I was the only one doing that. I can't tell you how many dirty guns I have bought over the years. I always make sure to clean and properly lube a gun BEFORE I sell it.

    I let 1 gun go that was not clean. Traded one of my Bull Dogs at the LGS and thought it was clean. Daughter took mine to the range instead of hers. Did not tell me. Got a call fro my buds at the shop. Not lived that down to this day.

    Yeah, I clean them before they go. Not many do go...and honestly this one wouldn't, but a friend wants/needs it.
    So...

    Shurrrre. :D

    The sad part (or maybe "great" part?) is that I never fired even one of them!
    OK, wait...I did fire the J-frame once because she wanted to see that done before doing it herself. I guess that counts.
    But still!
