Nothing earth-shattering cool in the hunting dept - snowshoes, a NS atlas and a polar fleece blaze orange jacket.
I did get tickets to the world jr semi-finals though which is WAY cool!!! |

| Santa brought me snowshoes :smile:. Here the snow gets pretty deep, so you need snowshoes or cross-country skiis. I have the skiis, so now I'm trying out the snowshoes. Pretty nifty way to get around in all this white stuff! |

| Lever... $$$ is always a good thing and there is never enough when it comes to hunting. There is always something around the corner that grabs your fancy. I have two gun safes full and am now in the process of steel reinforcing a 12x12 room so I can store/buy more guns. :smile: |

| Hopefully someday I'll have 50 guns but right now the count is 31. I am now in the market for a new semi-auto shotgun for waterfowling(leaning toward the Benelli Super Black Eagle) |

| 31 GUNS thats got to be a record of some kind. Just wanted to know... What do you do with all of them? I mean I know that you hunt with them but you cant take all 31 on a hunt trip. |

| No it's not a record but is a growing collection for sure. I do shoot most of them at the range but only a couple go with me hunting. Most are WW2 military arms but some are modern firearms as well. I don't need that many but I want that many and more. I love collecting firearms of all kinds but the joy is in taking them to the range which I do on a weekly bases. Most of the firearms have been purchased this year because I am making an effort to put aside $$$ just for my "hobby". I started this year with 14 rifles and now look where I am. If you have the money in hand and look around it is surprising how many deals you can get. |
