Happy belated Birthday Lars!!!

Most recent a Rossi from the Interarms era... it's very accurate & being all steel the recoil is very minimal

...he graciously engraved my Rock Salt this year, on one side it says 'We cook and we cut things' , he must've caught my mad moment of gleefully heating up the chili for the Friday feed :winking-tongue ...
