one person's trash is ?????

i thought i better show you this, i think here is as good a spot as any to post it.

i went to see an old muzzleloader shooting buddy this morning (i had lent him a ball mold).
i mentioned that i was building small balsa airplanes.
he flies rc but he does not put anything together. he tells me that a friend of his gave him a small box of balsa and said i could have it. sure why not!
we go to the garage and this is what he gave me.. not a very small box of balsa.
what the heck am i gonna do with all that?

 

Goodness...In the current market - someone could probably trade that for a small Scottish Island.

i am just about out of the BP game now. i have only two shooters left now, an english fowler 44'' barrel flint, and a 42'' barreled 40cal flint.(i built both) i haven't shot in a few year now. i will most likely gift them to my kids.
i did own a bess for a while, carrying a bag of.75 RB on a 28 target walk got tiring.

thanks

our government is the same, self defense is against the law.
a jackknife in a pocket here can be considered a concealed weapon.

Although it wasn't of the same calibre (sorry!) I did a lot of .177 air rifle shooting a few years ago, but became tired of the long tedious drive to the range, just for maybe ten minutes on the 'step' (althogh it wasn't a step!).
There were two advantages - disregarding the lack of weight of the ammo, it was a lot quieter, and you didn't have to wait ten minutes for the cloud of smoke to disperse, so you could see if you'd hit the target!   

Eric. 
that is an issue here as well. a 45 minute drive to an overcrowded range that is expensive to belong to.
i actually gave all my .177 's to my grand kids. (they are in north alberta outside of town where they can plink in their back yard).  i used to live where i could shoot my air rifle in my back yard, the kids and i had a great time plinking away at pop cans.  i look at what is out there for sale now and i see some pretty nice air guns.

Two tier policing in England is shockingly bad now days a lady gets 30 months jail for posting a tweet about the boat illegals coming in, then a labour council member is on film saying and imitating cutting English throats is found not guilty in court, there is going to be civil war here before to long mark my words, 

Social media is the worst thing for picking and choosing what constitutes and qualifies for free speech and what doesn't.  I got banned from Instagram for posting something political.  A lot of my friends are very left leaning and they seem to be the problem.  They seem entitled as if their opinion is more worthy than someone who disagrees and if they disagree they should be ridiculed and shut down.  The UK has gone mad.  I got to vote (for the first time) in the local elections.  I didn't vote Labour, I voted for the other popular party who took lots of seats.  Scared to say in case I get cancelled
