That's a beautiful rifle. Not just the wood; the actions on those are mechanical artwork. Mine's just an old Glenfield model 25, on it's second refinish. I don't feel bad about butchering it to make it more practical.

I do feel better about the amount of pet hair on my chair now , don't have a couch

only carpet in the house is rugs

as for the crock nockoffs , I have the actual crocks because they do come in a 14 and 15 and up to an 18 I think I am fine with the 14 or 15

don't go more than a few steps out of bed without something on my feet , foot issues , dogs that will step on feet , stuff dogs drag in

yup . make the gun work for you , pretty but less useful is just a show peice , they are tools to be used.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I had some crocks a few over several years fir around the house and they made great shower shoes at the gym and gang showers at work to avoid athletes foot. the biggest issue I had was when thorns would get in the bottom break off and end uo poking into my feet. Sometimes they were hard to locat and remove

Crocs are the worst shoes. No support. Plantar fasciitis in your future.

actually in my past , I wear them about long enough to get the coffee made , then put on real shoes

bare foot was much worse for the plantar fasciitis for me

definitely not a wear them long , just easy to get on to walk to the bathroom or to let the dogs out.
