Cometa Indian and associated thoughts

I used bb guns and pellet guns as a kid but very quickly was moved on to standard fire arms. I am partly disabled ( walk like a goof, back injury), can no longer hunt or compete, so have begun to shoot pellet guns out of my garage at a range in my back yard. I have had a lot of trouble, some self-in...
