thisnewdaySo, OK, no one deserves a moment in life that's THIS good, least of all me. I'm standing in my basement next to my drill press, the sun is shining brightly outdoors, and within arm's reach is an ice-cold bottle of Genesee Brew House "Dark Chocolate Scotch Ale.
I'm shaping the shoulder piece of a self-designed butt extension for my recently-arrived Crosman 2300KT. "Christopher Crosman," as he's known as here, is a custom-built .22 carbine from the Crosman Custom Shop. He's fun to shoot, amazingly accurate, and brings another round of learning, skills development, and just plain enjoyment to this solitary life of mine.
More and more, I'm inclined to think that these airgun projects might be something that I'd like to do at more than just the hobbyist level.
For right now, though, I have the Dark Chocolate Scotch Ale close at hand. And that's a sure thing...

Every time you mention one of those ales I start thinking I should take up drinking; anything with dark chocolate has got to be tasty.

Which is just as well since some of the internal parts, which I've not been able to build replacements for in my shop, have indicated to me that they're better off without it.
As for butt replacements, I'm sure I could never design one as lovely as the original, lol...

Well I guess I better get a ticket for Brazil, rumor has it you can get your bum fixed down there lol
