Rondo, when I read Jim's post I thought, "of course it sounds familiar, you old potlicker, 'cause Rondo built that rifle".

Ya need to build Jim a smooth bore, so he can get after them Turkey birds...like a real mountain man!
Betcha that would put some spark in his life!

Welcome back Jim Beau, didn't ya miss us?

Jim needs a smoothbore for turkeys, maybe sumpthin' like an Early English Trade Gun, or a Northwest Trade Gun.
This is correct.  I did vow to acquire one after the disaster of last season, but have failed...with the season just a few short weeks away, I'm looking at a suitable sling-shot... :oops:
