Hello I’m Larry, just a crusty old coot from Grays Harbor. Born raised worked and still live in Aberdeen. Heard about WaGuns from the guys at Grays Harbor Guns in Aberdeen and East County Guns in Elma. Enjoy bolt rifles most but do have one AR my stepson built from a Aero Precision kit. It is fun but I prefer my old Rugers and Winchesters.
I worked for Weyerhaeuser for 45 years. 15 in the Cosi truck shop, 20 in the stacker shop, and 10 behind a desk. I love it down here but the tweakers can go.
