[TheForge] Sighting in Rifles

[Jerry Smith]

Bruce,

I live out in country side, the real in now where
country side. Have a rifle next to the door is pretty
common out here. It's there for two things, wild
animals and salemen.

A fas as seat belts, I wear mine, I don't have a cycle
or an ATV so I don't have a helmet for that purpose. I
do have ahelmet with my bicycle. That really makes a
lot of sense to wear, especially with all of the ATVs
on the road where they are no suppose to be.
