Then they moan like fuck their set up is too heavy and want chop this and that to get it down to something like it was before they stuffed around with it. Spend a small forture, carry on how good their rifle groups at the range and maybe end up shooting 1or 2 animals a year if they lucky.
    Have we met?? I think you might have just described me!!! except my rifle is not a poo for free
