Must think a guy with the fresh new title 'Engineer' know more than you because they have the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking 60yr old fellas. Guns to still want to work at that age! Edited 02/04/12 08:31 AM by Shyfrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
