Re: FOOMP
Yes it is. Quiet shots are optional Hoping to take it with me on my brothers boat some day.. Open water..no spectators.. Old school fun. Brings back memories of his "Chappy" launcher..had a lot of fun with that. I borrowed his idea for the extension. This one is bite-sized in comparison

Re: Caselman air machinegun

Basically I'm exhausted..have been fo...

Being all adult and responsible atm... **starts singing ** Maybe I didn't visit quiet as often as I should have.. But you were always on my mind.....
