I got into guns as a way to have something to focus on during my weeks off. I started with a basic Ruger 10/22, and now my safe is overflowing with everything from AR-15 builds I’ve pieced together myself to a couple of bolt-action rifles for the occasional hunting trip. I’m a tinkerer by nature and by trade, so I find myself spending more time cleaning, modifying, and perfecting my gear than actually shooting lately.
