The Sniper Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 Not long after buying my first 22lr, a BRNO bolt action, I was out shooting rabbits with an ex Army friend. I had spent hours learning the trajectory of this gun. When I took a rabbit out at 112 yards he said " You should have been a Sniper" It stuck.

jimdfish Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 It was due to my uncanny knack of blanking while out carp fishing. There is not enough time in the world to sit 48 hours carp fishing. Try the fly, much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red_stag88 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 I was setting up a hotmail account and stuck for a name. Glanced out of the window and guess what was being bled....... The engine of Rover. So I looked at the book on the desk for insprination...... A Haynes guide to Rover mechanics. So I typed in Red_stag88 and that was that. T.L.E, I have done a little work machining, and am making some PCPs currently. YP, I will have lots of spare time this holiday to do some work on them!

Vulcha Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 It was a cold day at school so i had my hands in my pockets and rasied my shoulders, and apparently i looked like a Vulture. Then i went to my friends house and i was playing halo and he put my name as Vulcha, so it stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
