Used one just like it to dig out a splinter this morning. What are the kids missing?
A daisy red rider won't kill a barn pigeon very well unless it's a head shot. That bead on the end is darn close to .177. they do the trick with body shots and are surprisingly accurate.

Original author, but not my guy. Not sure which one is the greater "thinker" I'm pretty confident "MY GUY" is a better shot.....even in Bright Light!
lmao. Wasn't that a tag line on the Original Hide back around 2008-2009? Mazer, you remember? I'm too damn old to remember back that far. At any rate, made an impression on me cuz I rarely think about what my alligator mouth says to overload my humming bird ass... It's a character fault and it made me give pause somewhat!

Why don’t these younger generations pull themselves up by the boot straps like I did

Something is terribly wrong here. My Dad worked as a civil servant making more than min wage in 1968 and he wasn't making no equivalent of +$6k per freakin week! Judas Priest, someone’s fricking delusional.

We lived in a mobile home at that time with 4 kids and we were barely scraping by. With two more kids in the 70s my Dad was able to have a modest house built. Us kids all shared bedrooms except for my sister. Dad finished the house himself, to save money.

Dad went to work and came home. No drinking, gambling or any other waisting money. In the 70s Mom and Dad both did side jobs on top of Dad’s full time job just to make ends meet. We were poor. Not dirt poor but with six kids it wasn’t a life of luxury an equivalent of $6k per week would have brought. There was no $1K per kid coming in. Utterly ridiculous……

One thing is for sure, they were buying food and clothing for us kids, not gold.


What full time job did mom work again?

Because it seems that your dad raised 6 kids and built a house, all on a single income. Seems like a great guy. It also seems like a pretty well off situation to be in, even if it didn't feel like it at the time.
