Too tall and has a neck, so not Fermin. No crocs, so it isn't Sixshot Probably right body style and clothing for Doc, but the handelbar mustache doesn't fit. Sooooo......I yield to those smarter then me to answer the question
BUT, my question is: At 45, am I a SOB or a little SOB?
The question is tearing me into two different generations, can anyone clarify???

I am finally blessed with having my own land to shoot & hunt on. That's was one of my dreams. Since moving to TX and fleeing the oppression of communist NY. I do not miss the Sobs, Bugs, old /little sons, but you left some out. At least from my range experience. There are the guys scared of their own guns....then spend more time watching and policing others than shooting, if someone has a jam they start screaming up and down JAM< JAM<CRY<JAM<JAM. I don't miss them, or the consummate range Nazi over the top safety guy. He has to have the little yellow plastic flag in his 1903's action or some other mauser, pull out his bull horn to yell, "CAN I GET A CLEAR", REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES !!!!! Until we are all cowering on the ground. They give dirty looks and run to find the range master if someone shows up with a 50 BMG, he can't shoot that here is usually muttered, the reply by said rangemaster is usually "He is a member here & pays his dues like anyone else", now that should be the end but not for these yellow flag safety masters, oh no, they proceed to tell this poor guy you can't shoot that here, your crazy it's to big, I believe their masculinity is being challenged, they bug the guy until he either gives in and leaves or turns and advises them that their yellow flag is going to be inserted somewhere other than their rifle's action, ah now where getting somewhere.................. I really don't miss those days at all, anyone want to come shoot here is welcome anytime, no fees or range Nazi, I just may ask to shoot your gun once

We know that Texan with the handlebar. He owns several examples of everything cool and much- sought-after ever made. And he can clear 'em from leather FAST!

Yep I recognize Madbo and I'm guessing the one in the boonie and snake boots is Tank but I obviously haven't seen a recent picture of him because I've never seen him sporting whiskers like that. The other one in the Gunsite cap I don't know. Or is that a Thunder Ranch cap?Great write up ya big galoot! And nice art work Mr. B.

Thanks for the positive replies boys! I'm having a blast doing them. Got a pretty good supply of stories put away and I'm still writing them as they pop in my warped mind. The BUG is a good buddy of mine that works at the PD range I worked at. I made up the get-up of me sporting the squirrel tail. Yep! I added a goatee as both a disguise and way of making 2-3 days of growth not look so bad. Retirement is good. Here I am in Nashville sporting my whiskers.
