    Bugging Out Boomer

    Well getting old sucks. I remember being where the RV cords were residing at. I had a plate carrier with hard and soft armor, with mags hanging off of it.

    The truck driver said it was too heavy to bugout with along with the XD45

    Fast forward to yesterday, when I relocated it in a marked bin. The carrier is too freaking heavy to even pick up now easily.

    Oh well, I'm too old to run and fight, so I'll just stay here and drink like Merle, with my PC and Helmet, and wait for them to come to me.

    Oh , the Messicans 2 doors down WERE respectable, but are now trying to kick an old timer off his land. They were suprised when they met him a midnite with a 20" HBAR and $3K thermal optic hunting song dogs

    The "Boy's" are in their mid 20's

    I'm waiting for the daytime shooting to start, and I'll drop by "The Range" where the hippies hang out, and converse with the old timer


    eta - There has been 4 suicides on my street in 2 years, 2 OD's and 1of old age.

    A total of 7, All within 200 yards

    3 folks died from fentanyl laced dabs , bought at Magna Donnely Parking Lot

    I see Texas plates across the street from Catholic Hispanic family, and at the Messicans 2 doors down, probably bring up the fentanyl

    This WW2 war baby sometimes puts on the soft armor . . . will begin to do it more often if things keep getting worse . . . greaseballs and other thugs around here went crazy over the 9mm things . . . so the soft stuff is enough protection.

    At 79 . . . I still go where I want . . . when I want . . . I'm just smart enough to know that certain places require backup . . . and when I have to go there . . . my AR pistol goes with me. It's all close urban . . . so I'm better armed than a whole pack of em . . . and besides most of them are rag heads . . . haven't been to a range in their lifetimes . . . I have my own range.

    May God bless,

    I forgot about my A2 10.5" Pistol......, I can put the brace back on now


    It's time to go organize more stuff, which means more lifting. All the 12 gauge hulls, wads, shot are in a 7 cubic foot chest freezer.

    2250- 45 acp - 200 LSWC's gets heavy quick 65 lbs with the Bucket

    No bugging out. No wearing armor. Busted up too many joints and age is bringing the injuries to the forefront.
    .300 Blackout is now my preferred rifle over the 7.62 ones.
    It’ll be alright.

    I was paying $45 / month and wasn't going since June, then silver sneakers in September, used it once to see if my card worked and weighed myself
    Scale was way wrong. Haven't been back since.

    Member since March 2020 / then COVID shut them down before I could even visit my first time. I'm pumping brass and lead, and some steel machines. I'll hit the gym again someday, they have a killer shower and sauna
