Default Northern Alberta

Greetings from Northern Alberta.

I am a recovering gunaholic and I know that I can stop buying guns anytime I want.

I especially enjoy classic S&W revolvers and other precison handguns. So far I only have a 27-2 and a 66-2. I also have a SIG-P210 and a Finnish Lahti L-35.

I also have an obnoxious cat who constantly buy guns using my credit cards.

Mr. Squinty.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

I noticed a post in the S&W rifles section about Husqvarna-made S&W rifles. I tried answering the post but could not. I have a Husqvarna rifle that looks like the one owned by the poster.

I would like to post some pictures of the gun over here. Later

Welcome from Texas Mr. Squinty. Great forum for all things S&W, have fun, learn lots, share what you know.

Always nice to have a new member of the S&W family check in from up north.

I think my cat calls my local dealer when she knows I have money. I think she is paid off in tuna.

I thought I might post a few pictures of Northern Alberta. Here's the view about 5 miles from my house:



Here's the world famous Mad Trapper Inn. This establishment is so tough that on the bar room floor they use sawdust to soak up the blood from all the fights;



And here's the Athasbasca River in the early morning the first day of hunting season in 2009;



And here are a couple of my friends later on that day. We were hunting mule deer.



And lastly here's a wolf track. There are lots and lots of timber wolves near here. We even have our own pack down at our range.

Default I think we're neighbors, Mr. Squinty!

I'm from Athabasca, and work at the local sport shop. There are not to many gunoholics that I haven't met in this neck of the woods. Both of your friends standing on the riverbank look familiar to me. I look forward to conversing with you and all the other gun nutz here!

Welcome aboard from Indiana my friend.
Drop me a line when you get tired of the P-210
and i'll take it off your hands. Had one NIB 15
years ago or so and foolishly sold it.
Need any big deer killed around your area ?
Let me know. Seriously Welcome aboard.
Bunch of good people on here willing to help out
with everything S&W and gun related.

Chuck
