The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.

No , I haven’t yet but they just made it legal in my state last year to bowfish for carp. I made dad a bow fishing kit for Christmas and turned up a reel on the wood lathe. We haven’t got any carp close to where I live , but we have been planning a trip. What can you bowfish for in the states? Just carp in New York, but I've heard you can shoot gar in other states. I use a little Mission Menace compound.

Lol, my favorite gun is the one I use for trap shooting which is a browning BT99 12 g, it’s not mine currently but it hopefully will be soon. My personal best in trap is 95 out of 100 I’m going for 100 straight

Well Pofarmer10 Haha. I don't think you should say somebody can't do something just because you can't haha! And no need for me to say something to float my boat I will give you some advice witch helped me out. Ha! 1. I workout. Not that difficult I can bench press more than my own weight. I bench press like 120 or 125. Obviously took time but I do! 2. Step 1 made me be stronger than every one at school IN MY GRADE (This ain't a tip but it's facts.) 3. work your way up to the weight. Now time for some honest facts haha I am indeed 5' 3" my mom is 5' 2" and I'm taller than her by a bit. And I do not have long arms. There regular arm size. And if for some reason me posting my arm muscle or height or arms is necessary say no more
