 JH> Oh Bob, that was a nice gun. I always loved the 1911-A1. Wish I had
 JH> one now, like you I had one, and sold it!.......:( You gonna miss
 JH> it!) (as I do mine). I can already tell! It does hurt tro talk about
 JH> selling such a gun............
 BL> Yeah, it was hard to sell it, but sometimes you do what you have to. 
 BL> My braces are in pretty bad shape and I'm going to have about $1000.
 BL> worth of work done on them next week, so need every dollar I can dig
 BL> up.  Medicare will pay some, but I'll probably be out $400-$500 myself.
 BL> Warren King keeps telling me to throw them away and use the wheelchair
 BL> all the time, but I just can't bring myself to do it.
 Yeah... I am still having a time of it (getting in a wheelchair). My
 Daughter does most of my shopping for me, but I know that I can't always
 depend on someone being around to go in the big stores for me etc....:(
 So I am trying to get over the "W/C Fright".....:)
 BL> The clays are neat targets, especially when they break up.  We've also
 BL> used water balloons and plastic bottles filled with water.  The kids
 BL> really get a kick out of that.  The only firing range around here,
 BL> other than the Law Enforcement one, isn't accessible by wheelchair.  I
 BL> even have trouble getting to it with my braces & crutches.  I have
 BL> access to the Law Enforcement range, but can't take visitors (read
 BL> grandchildren) there. 
 I don't like the access to most ranges, that is why I still like to get
 out in the country and set targets. I go over in Arkansas (friend has
 some land) and set-up. Now if this ever runs out on me, I will be
 using the ranges too.... but hope I can continue like I am. At least I
 don't have to hassle with getting in and out of the range, and people
 up to my ears! Shame you can't take the kids to the "LEO" range.....:(
 BL> Since Oklahoma now has a concealed carry law, our city council is
 BL> considering changing the city ordinance about firing weapons in the
 BL> city limits, to allow firing ranges in the city limits.  That makes me
 BL> think someone is wanting to open one.  Sure hope so.
 Sounds like they might, and hopefully it will be W/C accessible.
