Well, being a lifetime member at West End Gun Club, we could make that happen. As far as ammo, I'm nearly out. I'm down to only 15,000 rounds, but my son keeps me fully stocked.

welcome from CO!
im also an escapee from a board that devours itself and its people. this is a real nice place, no one hounds you for typos, calls you names or spits on ya cause youre not perfect and dont meet their standards. pretty refreshing here.
best of luck with homesteading plans and escape from LA
