Lloyd,
Nothing would make me happier. Trouble is, things have gotten too "civilized" to shoot like we used to. When I was a kid, I could walk 10 minutes and be in the woods to shoot to my heart's content. Even later, when I moved out west, you could drive to the desert at the edge of town and bag your limit of tin cans, empty shotgun shells and Necco wafers any time you wanted. Now the edge of town has moved 20 miles further out and even then if you do get out into the desert, some do-gooder will have heard the shots and you will be surrounded by a SWAT team or Border Patrol. Things are just a little too volitile just across the border, and who knows, I might be a terrorist.
