    Florida

    Hi all, I am posting this , from my daughters computer , here in West Melbourne Florida in the good old USA.
    Its sooooo, hot here, so most of the time here I have spent looking around shops such as Bass Pro, Walmart , Dicks Hunting etc etc.
    What strikes me is the pathetic choice of air rifles!
    Yes , I obviously know that larger firearms are openly on sale , but , Nearly every store has now a sign , stating no firearm sales to under 21's.

    So I thought there may be BSA , or an Air Arms , or even a Beeman (HW in a Stetson), but alas NO , just cheap nasty Daisy's and Gamo's.
    Also , you may think 30 Degrees plus , is bearable , but not for long its not , so staying in air conditioned premises makes it tolerable.

    But what struck me was , If you cant go outside because of the heat and the sun , there is no difference to not being able to go out
    because of the rain in the UK. You still cant go out!!!!!
    But in the UK , the rain stops .
    There is much to be said for a temperate climate. Where things don't eat you if you wonder off the beaten track.
    I'm coming back next week ,so I hope the weather in the North west has picked up a bit.
    Peace through superior fire power!
