Looks like we need to make a recon trip.

We can do that.

It was in the news a couple years back, some dude holed up in a trailer and held off the cops for a while.

Maybe I can find a link.

Well.. he had a place out in the country that we closed up & moved out when he became ill...

He stayed some in California with relatives too.

I think he had another place too but I could be mistaken.

I don’t think they have a particularly nice favor.
Serranos arew king with me, or Hungarian wax peppers.

He lived in Katy. He sold his house, bought the place in the country and became ill all within a few months of each other.

There used to be a shooting range on the west end of Galveston Island. there was an inlet from West Bay beside it and you could fish, crab and shoot at the same time. It is probably gone now, that was many years ago.

Serranos are a mandatory ingredient for chili. Never tried wax peppers. Will have to look for some of those. I’ve heard they’re similar to banana peppers, which are awesome.

NYTexan, sorry I forgot to include you when thanking TheMom and MyLife for the organization, etc. You were so busy with everything, I didn’t get a chance to say hi.

So, a great big Thank You for all your hard work.

Are you still in DFW area? Windflier and some others want to get North Texas FReepers together for maybe another Shoot in Novermber.

WOW - what a pretty pair of rifles.

We should get a picture of all the lever action rifles and their owners at the next shoot.

Maybe we could start a friendly annual lever action rifle shooting competition with official targets at various distances - winner gets braggin’ rights for a year, lol.

Leaving it up to the organizers to decide.
;^D
