I collect old bottles.
White Pass finally expanded!
Havn't skied much since my knee injury 2 yrs ago. Got it fixed this winter...and have a full pass to Crystal and The Summit! Hope to get in 30-50 days, and resume ski photography. I used to make $2000-6000 a yr selling to magazines and ski areas.
I have enough old milsurps to play Beau Gest and a pile of ammo to keep heads ducking for weeks. Hey SS, not only do I have two Mk 4s, but a No5 as well.
My real hobbies, I ocean fish, play with my cameras and try to convert chaotic thoughts into something reasonable. I do hit the Rye a bit.
I also play an old video game, I kill and burn 3-4 times a week
Yup, I had a mk 4 one time.
Sweet gun and a crate of ammo to boot. That 303 ammo is probably expesive now. The 303's are the best bolt actions to me.I have an SMLE No.1 Mk 3... 1906 in .303, also got a crate of ammo to go with it. It also has the windage marker on the forend for the muzzle mounted grenade launcher.
One of the most accurate rifles I own...

You guys are makin me want another one now. My wife will kill me if i bring another gun home though.The actions are so smooth. They arent the very strongest made, but are very smooth. The lockup is the weak point in them. Just have to watch loading them and not get em too hot.:angry2:
The flip up sights are remarkably accurate foe such old rifles. They are very well built and can make a great hunting rifle for anyone. The recoil is very tolerable, even for a youngun. I popped my first WT with it when I was 11 yrs old. I still take it out in the brush when I'm not carrying my 45-70. I love my 45-70 and the marble open sights are hard to beat. It had ballistics identical to my muzzleloader only I can pop it off ten times fast.:hmm3grin2orange: Only difference is I'm loading 350 gr hornady hollows in the 45-70 and 250gr hornady hollows in the 50cal omega. Both going around 1700fps.

Yep, The ar's are a nice shooter. I have an Colt ar-15A2 a Colt AR-15 A1, Two Colt M-16A1's One rifle and one carbine.Grab ya one up man. Theyre pretty cheap around here usually.
But you can't have mine though.
I see them for a couple hundred bucks here and there.
My next one is a BAR like the one you have or an AR-15 colt target rifle. I could have traded my 7mm remmy for a brand new colt accurized AR with the big bull barrel. I bout did it but held back. I must have one. I enjoy shooting AR's they're accurate as heck. I shot a Rock River AR the other day that was very nice. The guy we're working for had it out on his 4-wheeler.
Well shoot.....That just ain't enough.lolI used to be heavy into guns and such. Shot many of pounds of powder thru the ol' TC Omega. Built a custom 22 bench gun that would shoot 5 shots in under .250 at 50 yards, consistently. Not to mention I have shot lots and lots of clay pigeons.
But I have always had an obsession with motorized things. Saws just give me a motor to tinker with, and in turn I get to heat the house in the winter. Not to mention saws are a lot cheaper than guns, well at least bench guns. I have thinned the gun herd down a bunch. Heck, i think I only own 12 or 13 now.
