I am a young buck. Just shy of 22. I am not looking forward to my future, however I will not give up hope.

Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between and outside of those categories, we mustn’t give in. We must NOT give in. You can feel the doom and gloom, but do not let that feeling alter your actions. In the end, there is Light in the darkness.

I feel sorry for all the cool shit you missed out on through no fault of your own.

I buy what I like, mostly old cheap shotguns and .22s. I really wish I could have gotten a handgun though. I remember in highschool how down bad I was to turn 18, write for my rpal, and get a Romanian TT-33 for $250 lol

Now I’m hoping my father lives long enough for some sort of grandfathering to come into existence so I can legally keep my maternal grandfathers Iver Johnson Model 55. He and I shared our birthday, and he died 2 weeks before I was born.

Of the handful of things he left behind for me, all but 2 things were guns.
