How much do looks affect your fire arm purchases.

I like to look at fully engraved Purdys, H&Hs, Kreighoffs, etc. My budget is more in the Lone Star beer class.

All the piss and vinegar are helping you… You may want to move somewhere with even fewer trees…

I'm still working on that. Believe it or not, my neighbors to the north have agreed to let me take out the gigantic maple tree in their front yard. That is dying. And will fall smack dab into my driveway -- it's just waiting on the right storm.

You hit a target over 1.5 miles with one shot? I need a better rifle and scope...

He has these dreams, and most people just let it go.

Pfft. Speak for yourself!! I'm gonna live forever!!

And "die trying" is for losers!

I don't mind if other people like guns I don't care for. Means a bit less competition for the ones I do like. The few plastic guns I've had weren't my favorites, and some of the wood & steel guns were. I lost all my long guns in 1991, when I was shipping overseas to Germany, and the moving and storage contractor stole them. I've been replacing them as best I can. Only plastic thing I've really liked is the Pachmayr grips I put on my 1911. It's a big world with a lot of folks in it. Highly unlikely there'll be uniformity of opinion on such things.

First shot.

hell of a nice shot. My furthest is 1805 yards, hit it second shot, one correction. Mile shot took 2 corrections and hit it on 3rd shot, 40" x 40" Target. What were you shooting out to 2600m if I may ask. I was shooting a barrett m99 in 50bmg.

some guns I buy because they are sexy, some utilitarian like glocks. Ex: an 8" Smith 29 gun is just sexy

I know when I was looking at Henry Big Boys, I had to have one with the polished Brass Receiver. The plain steel ones just didn't cut it.

Old adage comes to mind..."Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." One might see their beauty as form, fit, finish, function, while others see their beauty as "a good deal." As the ATF always assures and promises, you all will "know it when you see it." You are entitled to your own wrong beauty. And, believe me, I've seen some of your guns and gals.....
