Pete, welcome aboard, and nice retirement gift to yourself! Now you'll be on the prowl for extra barrels, boltheads, etc. The affliction has just begun :-)

Pete,

Congratulations on your new Boomer.

My retirment present to myself was a K95 since I already had an R93 (now w/8 barrels).

The Blaser affliction has just begun .... like Biebs says, make the most of it.

Scopes? gotta love Swarovski but don't get tunnel-vision; there's plenty of good ones to fullfill those urges, Zeiss, S&B, Doctor, Nickel are real sleepers but great value, too.

Have fun.


Cheers,

Number 10

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong;
