Haha. Hobies.

Hobbies.

Re: Other hobies

My hobbies used to be drinking beer, playing video games, and sending lead downrange.
I made a deal with my son to give up the first one, I don't have time for the second one anymore, and I recently discovered I'm proficient with a PT111-G2 pistol at "home defense" distances.
Working on sighting in a couple of very old scoped .22LR rifles. Shotgun accuracy has already been established long ago.
I'm not sure what to do with the bolt-action .22WMR "pistol" that used to be a rifle before SOMEONE broke the stock. Almost afraid to shoot the damn thing since the rebuild.

I'll also practice the violin occasionally. It sounds awful, but I'm a beginner, it's supposed to.

I have a 124 year old house. Is that considered a hobby? lol

We have an over 100 year old house, but I don't feel it's a hobby - more like an anchor around the neck 😩

I used to like plinking with my .22 rifle, active targets like a can of shaving cream can provide entertaining results. My .22 is pretty old, but it has a brass bead on the front sight so it is really easy to get a good sight picture if the rear sight is adjusted properly.
You are a genius as far as I'm concerned if you can play a violin, I've tried that. Best I could do was a trombone.
I still like stamp collecting although I don't get first day covers anymore.

Re: Other hobies

I play around on the banjo. I tried the violin, but I'm too lazy to put that much time into it. I'm also too lazy to shoot the guns anymore. Cleaning them afterwards is too much for me. I did just recently get a forge, and I'm messing around with that:

Oh, and when it's in season:

Re: Other hobies

I too enjoy shooting... I have a 1943 Mosin Nagant.. a Anderson M-14 ... a Mossberg Maverick 12ga semi .. a Kahr CW40 and CW380 and a Marlin mod 60 .22lr. I have plenty of space so I can walk out back and let the lead fly.
I also am into prepping ..have made my own solar hot water system... irrigation system for my garden.. built my own chicken coop/pen...
Love to fish, hunt, camp.
I also repair my Car/truck/boat/mower ( except for transmissions)
My 18yr old Son has acquired my skills also.
