Hi Jerry,
Ah ... you picked up the green logo. Well done. Good eyes (or big screen ... haha).
The Heather does jump out differently from different angles ... and it sometimes surprises you when you focus close. I'm extremely pleased, as it turned out exactly how I saw it in my mind's eye.
Thanks for the comments. Gee - so far, the owner is still claiming he can test it himself! hahaha.
Gary
Thank you Jim and Doug. Real glad you appreciate it.

Jerry,
If you can get up to see Gary before he ships it, you can test it
You can make sure it does well with those slugs your boys make.
Gary,
It looks great!
I showed my wife the pictures this evening. Fortunately she didn't hit me when I told her it would be arriving soon
She did admit it looks too good to shoot squirrels with! I'll have to remember to say "yes" the next time asks if we can afford to buy something.

Hmmm... If I leave in 15 minutes I can get there about 1:30 in the morning. You'll be up won't you Gary? Or you can just leave the keys under the mat, don't worry about a thing, just a little testing going on! .gif "more innocent")

Hi Scott,

Phew ... that was close .... hehehe
I'm putting some lead thru it and tweaking. Making a crate too. (Oh ... and filling tanks for Jerry ....

Hi Gary:
I know we shot it over the chrony last time I came up to the shop but I don't recall the numbers. Do you remember?
That rifle has a sweet, sweet trigger on it. Two-stage, with a click-thru first stage, but the "click" doesn't seem nearly as strong as, for example, Kent's Carnivore. And, as I mentioned before, it's exceptional for shooting off-hand. It shoulders great and it's super light-weight. Scott, what kind of scope are you going to mount on it?
Congrats again Gary. It's a winner.

This gun will hunt squirrels. No doubt about it!

Re: Appaloosa April 10, 2009 12:03AM |

That's what it was made for. Won't hurt it a bit. It will make sitting, and waiting, more enjoyable. Why ... heck ... any squirrel would be proud to be shot with that gun ...

Hi Jim,
Thanks. I enjoyed looking thru the page, with a cuppa coffee
and a cookie (well ... ok ... three cookies) ...
I'd forgotten how fun the HAWG pistol was.
I hope, when you read the page, it's clear that I'm just havin' fun with it, and the normal expectations that the gun shouldn't have been as accurate as it was.
