Just keep shooting we'll worry about it when the smoke clears.

Cool, Grubber. Glad it arrived ......and works just fine..... looks like.

At the end of the movie looks like your dog wasn't bothered by the rifle fire....or was that your dog?

that was my dad's dog niner. He (the dog)is visiting for a while. And you are correct he is not bothered in the slightest by firearms. He was probably hoping I was shooting something he could fetch for me.
