Life, and airguns.

Just doing some reflecting. Life currently is gut punching me financially as it is to many of you here. My Airgun finances have been all but crushed by more important obligations. That and my limited, sucky range access have greatly affected my enjoyment of this hobby. However, I can’t see myself giving it up. Sigh, I just need 6 months without another punch to the gut. Sorry to be a downer. Hang in there all!
 
I feel you, Rangur. Life doesn't always offer us the choices we want. I've downsized because of the economy as well.

It's a pity that those (that think they're) in charge haven't figured all that out yet. Or maybe they have and it's by design that we're the ones sucking hind teat. That said, I've decided that I can be happy with what I have.

It's kinda bad here within the Western NC devastation zone, too.

Stay safe,

Sorry to hear this. Between all the natural disasters (unpredictable) and the worst economy in many decades (expected after the gov‘t spent over 7 trillion dollars in 4 years) there are a lot of people struggling right now.

Hope life turns around for you and many others real soon.
 
I feel like it is normal, you can catch a break, maybe ride it a little, and then BAM and life take a abrupt turn.
Where you are have a big say, i have many unanswered questions about the US, things i would like to know, but not VIA a 2 page wall of text, but maybe a relaxing talk on a porch with something cold in the hand.

Also quite a few unanswered questions in regard to my native country, which worry / scare me even more CUZ that is what i am directly exposed to myself.

Yesterday i saw one of those things that put things in perspective and oddly calm me, someone filmed a little girl in Palestine walking along a road with her little sister over her shoulder, news here said she had been walking like that for a hour with the sister that hurt her leg getting hit by a car ( of all the things that happen down there ATM )


On a side note, the reason i just got a NV scope, well my friend died ( heart attack ) and was resuscitated 12 times in the spam of a hour or two years ago, if he kick the bucket again and permanent, well i am without a place to shoot, and i would have to get creative.

Nothing to do but fight.
