New guy - Hey from NE Indiana
« on: October 15, 2009, 03:29:24 PM »
Hey everyone.  I'm 60; I like leveractions (Have 2 want more) and single actions (Have none want some).  I like to shoot about any kind of firearm.  I like bird hunting (especially grouse).  When I retire I intend to move to Washington state where my daughter lives.  Even toying with the idea of 2 years of gunsmithing school to keep me out of trouble and supplement my income.  I think I'd enjoy it way more than I did engineering school.

  Welcome Bob, to Graybeard Outdoors!

  This is one of the most informative firearms sites you will find. Probably nicest most helpful people you run across.

  From another Hoosier brother, there are a few of us here. Be sure to stop by the Indiana forum.

Why are retired guys so talkitive? When you retire, you go from 30-50 hours of talk weekly to about 3.  You have wisdom accumulated from decades of valuable knowledge that you need to vent. GBO may help.

Hey TomRob!

Hope you enjoy you're time here also. I see you've found the Handi gun section. You should enjoy those guys quite a bit.
