What a CUTIE!

Nothing like being born into royal tastes. Gonna try to find a rook rifle caliber double for his first gun?

Dude, your son looks like he's gained a few pounds since the last pic you posted at NE's forum. You've started him off right.

Very cute kid. What's his rifle of choice?


The price of knowledge is great but the price of ignorance is even greater.

Kiddo looks a bit like his old man. Now you know why they built double 22 Hornets.

Perry: You're right, he does look like me. POOR KID! Wish he got mom's good looks.

475Guy - yep, he is chunkin' up a bit. Must be the horse manure I've been putting in his socks. My little man turns the big 01 next Friday.

The other day we went for a walk around the neighborhood and I had him in a backpack carrier. We saw a doe standing about 30 yards from us and he pointed to it and said "da." To translate that, it means: "Pop, when I'm old enough you are taking me hunting and I'm going to bag something like that..."

Ah hah, one year old. No wonder he's filled out some. BTW, my niece just gave birth to a bouncing baby boy Aug 23 and I'm having to re-acquire all my baby handling skills all over again.

I saw the perfect double a couple of years ago at the SCI convention in Las Vegas. It was .17HMR and REALLY beautiful. Would be a perfect companion.
