One scene, they were at a red light with a bunch of cars behind them and in front of them, and they still mangaged to bring down a crow. Very powerful airguns, with some nice scopes. Very accurate, too.
My dad has a Beeman .22 airgun which is fun to shoot in the shed that is attached to his garage when I visit my parents in L.A., but I have yet to take it out to try some real urban hunting, LOL.
Real guns are great, when you have a gun in which the ammo is cheap. My rifles ammo used to be something like 1000 rounds/$85 USD, but has doubled that. Good thing that the deal I got gave me about 2000 rounds, the rifle, and 10 high capacity magazines for $300! I had some gang lowlife offer to buy the rifle from me "cash" but it would end up a few miles south of the border in the hand of some cartel in shootouts with the Mexican police/Mexican army. But if "cash" is $2500, I might consider arming the "enemy" as that might be a subjective viewpoint considering it's Mexico, and the cartels might be less dangerous than the police!! No, I'll never sell that gun.
Anyhow, Dave, I hope that you have good luck finding that motard. Snortin, I hope you keep bringing down the varmin that have the audacity to invade your property--freakin' rabbits and squirrels! Your people's land already was overtaken by the white man, and now the rabbits and squirrels want to continue that behavior?!?! Blast 'em!!!!!

Nothin' over the top. i have this weird malady; if i drink too much or too fast, i get a headache right away (not the next day)... i smoke and drink on the weekends with the boys. :goodtime: Used to be chronic smoking it all the time. Too much of a good thing ain't good for ya! :puke:
Anyway, i know where LaConner is (not far from my home town of Langley) and i understand your missing BC bud! The stuff they have here is pretty good, but the stuff back home is pa'erful good stuff! Glad I could engage yer nostalgic drive for a wee bit!
That Stevens-Savage longs strange. The stock is huge compared to the barrel and the barrel looks tiny. :confused1: Still, in the end, it ain't about looks, it's about hitting the target. :thumbsup: So, illuminate me if ya could, what's button rifling and why's it make a gun so accurate?
Two acres ain't nearly big enough for me. i grew up on a 5 acre plot that had another 5 acre vacant plot next to it. Got used to roaming that as a kid and wanna do sommit the same. :cowboy: i'd like to get a plot on a south facing mountain side with a fast flowing creek on it to hook up a generating system to and plant an apple orchard in. When i come back to Canada with my millions, i want to go off the grid AND off the map. However, if it was a choice between what i'm living in NOW and your 2 acre plot, i'd MUCH prefer your set-up!:icon10:
You boys and yer plinkin' wildlife ain't what i'm into. If i'm eatin' it, i reckon it's okay, but plinkin' critters without eatin' 'em is basic wanton slaughter and does a serious disservice to the land as well as show a terrible disrespect for the animals in it. IF the animal is over running an area as the American introduce cane toad of Australia, then i'd say open season. Otherwise my view is respect all forms of life, make as small a footprint as possible and allow God to bring the balance. :bowdown: There.. my metaphysical bit fer the day!
i agree culcune! We're all a bunch o mutts! And i say "make it so!" The sooner we can breed "race" out of the picture, the better this world will be. Racial distinctions are counter productive. Political distinctions as well. Heck, even national distinctions. Imagine there's a huge meteor screaming towards Earth and we all have 3 years to figure out some way around it. :diggin:The kind of brotherhood that would come from all countries forgetting their differences and focusing instead on their strengths would be amazing. Unfortunately i doubt it would last... :uhoh: ...and that's my social rant for the day! Dang it, where'd she put my soapbox anyway???:icon10:
...And on that note, them Rooskies can be a crazy lot! Knew a bunch of them a few years back. Partied hard and caused more than their fair share of public annoyance. Gave a lot of the locals here a pretty dim view of foreigners. :gaah: So i'm a man of seeming contradictions.. wanting all humanity to see themselves as one and then slagging the Rooskies as a bunch of party animals.. ***Sigh*** :rolleyes1:
As far as guns go, my all-time favourite gun was this pellet gun we had when i was a kid. Dunno the make. Was one o those rifles that you crack in half and crank the barrel to cock it, then place a lead pellet in the barrel. Well one day all the local boys (was about 3 or 4 of us at the time) took the rifle and pulled the stock off and removed the retaining bolt on the cap that kept the spring from firing out the ass-end of the gun. Once we'd safely removed it, we stretched the shyte outta it, then it took 4 guys to get the thing back in the gun! We lost the retaining bolt and instead just fired a nail in the slot and bent it so it wouldn't come loose. (Gunsmithing at it's finest!). Anyway, once we got that thing back together, we took it outside and got some BBs instead of pellets and rolled them down the barrel. As long as we aimed level or up, the BBs would stay in the gun. When we fired that puppy we were amazed at the change! That thing had serious power! i remember one time we'd set up bottles in a few of the windows in the barn out back and were plinkin' away. One guy hit a one gallon wine jug there a winging shot, but it was powerful enough to pierce the glass! Once it pierced the glass though, it'd lost a lot of power and so couldn't get out the far side. Instead it whizzed around and round the inside of the jug and cut it clean in half like a glass cutter! :popcorn: Yeah we had some good times with that gun. Treated it like shyte but it kept on doin' it's thang! By the time i moved away as a teenager, our mailbox looked like it'd been hit plenty by a shotgun!
As for that motard, we heard back from a local dealer who rides as well as sells off-road bikes. He says he can get them for us at about 8000 yuan a pop! SUCH A DEAL!:deal: i'm PUMPED!!
So i'll be going back to Canada this summa with the li'l Lady and hopefully work-wise, i'll be able to come out of the trip with more money than i went into it with, in which case i'll be buying that motard in September when i return! :riding: Lookin' forward to that! :icon10:
CDN out!

Lordy lordy lordy , where do I start to respond to all that Dave ?????
What's you been smokin before you wrote all that ???? :lol8: Your somewhat retrospective but futuristic at the same tiem there Dave :lol8: ....
Ok , here goes , you asked for it !!!! :thumbsup:
First off , the picture of the Savage-Stevens was takin to give it that look , it is actualy in perfect preportions and is only 36" long total, kids size rifle and that was exactly whom Joshua made it for way back in turn of the last century Dave . I took the shot looking up the gun with the camera to give it that bigger at the butt-end look on purpose ( Crazy Carl is my Hero :lol8: and I try to mess with camera tricks ) .....Button rifled is a cutting head pushed through the barrel and cuts the whole rifled pattern , all groooves at once , not one at a time . The Stevens barrel on this gun is Kryo ( super Cold ) treated first then slow heated to produce an incredible land and groove tolerence when it is buttoned . In a nut shell , the guys that are making this barrel have a secret balance of cold and heat that makes the rifling very accurate in this gun with its particular land and groove twist . It is one of the most acccurate guns I have ever shot and I have shot hundreds and hundreds of rifles and pistols . Its what I am and who I am Dave .
Ok enough gun shit !!! Ok, one more thing. The air gun your talking about are Springers :thumbsup: One of my favorites , owne many many mnay of them .
Just to let ya know , there are better pins to hold shit out there than nails :lol8:
Ok, as far as race and everyone becoming grey like you want them too so we can all be grey and just get along ? Never gonna happen as long as I am alive . I personally would prefer segregation to avoid mixing the races any further than they already are Dave. But hey , that's just me . When you lose race , you lose Heritage . Then what do you have ? DEMOCRATS !!!! :lol8:
Your obviously one of them . :eek2::gun_bandana:
Nothing I hate worse than watching a black guy with a white girl ? Lets make MUDD !!!! :icon10: No thanks , heritage is far more important to keep than making a bunch of grey people , to me that is .
Can't we all just get along , you sound like Rodney King man ? Hell no we can't , and thank God Almighty we don't see eye to eye . I will never see eye to eye with Muslims that want to blow up 3,000 innocent people in two towers with air planes in the name of there God ? Yeh , I want to breade everyone with those murderers ? No I don't think so . Exsterminate them would be much more likely in my brain thinking Dave . Hitler had the right idea , but the wrong method . Nothing wrong with being proud of your race Dave . Sorry but everyone being grey is nothing to be proud of . The world is doomed when we all think alike . Not that that will ever happen . That's Candy Land BS thinking that it is even possible Dave . As long as there are evil people , derranged people , crazy poeple , Terrorists people , DEMOCRATS , there will never be peace on Earth . Thank GOD !!!!!!! Maybe all you pacifist Phucks can forget 9-11 , but I can't !!!! And I won't !!!!
:gun_bandana::gun_bandana:
As far as shooting things , I don't shoot "Anything" I don't eat , except targets of course , paper tastes like Democrats !!!! YUK !!!!!
I think grey people shoot shit they don't eat , not MUtt Indians . Another good reason to be proud of my race . At least I have a race . :thumbsup:
Later , Snortin
