Howdy! My name is Mike, Ive been married for 15 wonderful years and have 2 beautiful daughters. I grew up with a family that always hunted and fished so thats how I was raised. I was borned in the Country(Cleveland Tx.)till the 4th grade then My Mom Moved us kids to the City when my Dad died and begin raising 5 kids alone as she needed to be close to her family. My Grandpa and Uncles still took us boys hunting & fishing throughout our childhood then My Mom remarried and my stepfather carried on as he loved to go camping,fishing & hunting too.
Well when I finally got married we moved to Austin(TX Capitol) we stayed there for 7.5yrs and I fished every weekend I could but didn't hunt too much then(City Life).I Finally got tired of that rat race and we moved back home, not 13 miles from where I went to school when in the 4th grade and now live in Cut N Shoot Tx on 10acres of land with a 3acre pond in my backyard and the family owns 87acres just behind the pond that we hunt on. (Heaven)
I own a 1956 Marlin39A,1963 Rem.Nylon 11,1971 REm.552-22LR,1978 Marlin 60 .22,06'Ruger 10/22 Carbine,07 Henry GoldenBoy 22Magnum & a 07' Rem. 597LSS 22LR.Some of these I inherited when Dad & GramPa died.
I also own a H&R "Sportsman" 22LR Revolver,1978 Rem.700 25-06 (Fav for Hunting) and I had a 70's? Winchester 30-30 & Shootgun that I gave my B.I.L 7 years ago after I blew 5 Disc in my neck (4 Serjuries & tore a Rotator Cuff on the Job and could no longer shoot them or anything much bigger then my 25-06 without severe pain.
I want to buy a new hunting Rifle(cause I can) a Savage 116FCSS in 243cal. or a 16FCSS in 270cal both in the Weather Warrior Series.
I've always been a Woody man so I never liked the Synthetic Stocked Rifles much but I really like this Style new Savage and my B.I.L(as a avid gun collector-185-200?) say's Savage has surpassed most of the Big names with their out of the box Accuracy,Acutrigger and their advanced but K.I.S.S design.
Anyway! You know my life story now! Sorry for such a long read.
Nice To Meet Yeah!
