Friendship makes me do it

Seems that every year I make it to Friendship I do something out of character.
This years fancy was buying a Redemption. Impressions so far as I take it out of the box and fiddle with it is that it is the most well thought out inline I've ever seen. Hopefully Monday I'll take it out back and try it out with minie balls. I hope it works because I don't want to get into the sabot thing.

You should stay away from Friendship. It is filled with bad people and you will pick up some habits that cause you to make serious mistakes, like buying an inline rifle.

As you should know, our president is pushing for something called a "carbon tax," because carbon is very bad. Unfortunately at Friendship they make a lot of the stuff, and if they're activities become more popular they might cause Global Warming (cooling, or whatever).

Well the gas emissions of a bunch of old farts will cause warming, however they're also emitting a bunch of particulates into the atmosphere which will reflect solar radiation negating the effect of the greenhouse gas emissions, in this case primarily CO2 and Methane...

The only bad points I've read about the Redemption were the heavy weight of the gun and plastic "futuristic" trigger guard. Everything else I've read were glowing reports on function and accuracy.

Pato, you are right the first thing I saw and disliked was the trigger guard but I hope the other innovations will prove it's worth. I'm takin one for the team and I'll let you know.
