Welcome to the forum!! Make yourself comfortable(your are in for a ride.). Now that the pleasantries are done what do you think about winchester vs marlin?
winchester vs marlin?.....I don't have any experience with either one really , or at least enough to have a REAL opinion...I was just looking at a single shot .22 bolt action Marlin to get for my kids though...

Since you are new, there are a few rules not posted in the rule book. No picture=no gun. When taking picture of yourself with new gun, you must use underwear over your head to hide your secret Super Hero identity....

Welcome to the funhouse! :applause: Beware, some of us are tenacious enablers of purchasing new firearms. :silly:
Single shot Marlin for the kids sounds good. Take them shooting early and often. They will get bored shooting paper. Crackers are good biodegradable targets and come in various sizes. 'Splatter' targets are available in the condiment section of the fast food restaurants (ketchup, mustard, and mayonaise packets :tooth:) Balloons are also a winner. Keep them interested, and they won't get bored.

Excellent advice! The novelty can wear off quickly if they don't have some kind of reactionary target to keep the senses excited.
how do you like 410 shotguns for personal defense?

I lived in St Louis Park by the Catholic Church off of Alabama Ave for a bit(by a roller rink?), also up in the northern point of Edina by the Miracle Mile Shopping Center.
Where are you gun shopping? Bills? The Frontiersman? The Gunstop?

West of St. Cloud, my Uncle and cousins use the Frontiersman for most of their shopping, The Gun Stop in Excelsior was pretty good but I am not sure what its status is since the owner, Harold passed away.

Man, I would get a bowl and it would be lunch for the week!

I will fear no evil: For I carry a .308 and not a .270
This indicates that you watched Broke Back Mountain....whoda thunk it?
