The retirement life

Good eating! Largest bass I ever caught was 8 1/4 pound largemouth at a pond in NH. It was midnight on a full moon. Used a black, Fred Arbogast Jitterbug. The water freaking erupted! It was 1983 on the New Boston Air Force Tracking Station...in a canoe. That pond had some Alligator Snappers that looked as big as a garbage can lid!

Caught a snapper almost that big last summer.

I caught the CZ bug with a surplus CZ 82. I loaded it up 9X18 MM FMJ and put all 12 rounds in the black at 25 yards from a rest and I'm no Jim Cirillo. I got steered to the CZ P-01 and it was my carry gun for over 20 years, Other CZ's soon followed and I can say I never got a bad one. The latest is a CZ Shadow 2 Carry, a CZ P-10C, and a P-10F in .45.View attachment 108717View attachment 108718View attachment 108719View attachment 108721View attachment 108722

What is your best feeding one of the bunch?

I haven't had a problem with any with the exception of using Blazer Aluminum cased 9 MM. My P-01 malfunctioned on the first shot with this stuff. I was so surprised I just stared at the gun for a minute. I tried the ammunition in the P-09, 75D, and 75b and I got malfunctions in all. Maybe a bad batch, but I won't buy it again. Blazer Brass works fine. The TS2 has very tight tolerances and I have read it can be picky but I haven't experienced it yet. Stay away from Pro Mag! My P-10C wouldn't feed from these bargain basement magazines at all!

Enjoy it while it lasts. Once more people are aware of your retirement, the free time dwindles.

you know it
everybody knows you have a pickup and a flat bed car hauler trailer... its like your free labor on call
in our neighborhood we had a veterans group to help out with people that might need a little help
little stuff
then the demands appeared, build us a deck or paint their house for free and they wanted us to provide the materials

crazy
got so bad that if anything in the village needed care and feeding the answer was call the veterans and they WILL do it


that was years ago, i stopped helping
just becasue i am a veteran and retired does not equate to me doing stuff just because you need it done

our catholic church got that way as well with those of us that were knights of columbus, we became the clean up crew for all the parishioners, emergencies are one thing... day to day clean up is quite the other.

finally had to tell the head cheese...nope nope i am not doing it, see ya

but its so good to be able to do now whatever we desire when we desire it,
turn off phone and vanish

Exactly! I always compare it to being the guy with a pickup.

Another comparison I use is it’s like if you work nights. This is probably the most accurate. Everybody knows, and everybody thinks you’re always available.
