Ah , if I was forty years younger! Getting paid for doing what you like doing is not working, but living the good life!

"Is comfortable working in a high paced production environment"
Jim's requirement above makes it work to me. I love making guns, but at my own pace. I had to work as a carpenter for a living and it was all hurry up, we need it yesterday. If I was willing to go back and hurry my work, this would be a great opportunity. Jim would be a good employer.

This Ad is a great adertisement for their products. They want real builders and
are offering a fair beginning pay grade. They are not hiring just anyone from the streets.

Two things are just wrong for me. One, I'm too old, and two, it can snow like the dickens there!

I know just the guy.
I'm just not sure how far Hanoverton is from where he lives in Ohio.
He is also looking for a career change at this time.
I will forward him screenshots of this post.

I'm sure if Jim saw the thread in the Non Muzzleloading Topics forum re: the poll on avg. ages of members, he would have noted whether his shop is wheelchair accessible. Joking aside, what a great opportunity for someone.

Pay shows the quality of kits and finished rifles will continue on! I ordered a .40 SMR and very glad I did. I did get caught however. So exited I used the wrong card and got a very damning text !! Explained my recent transfer of guns was put in wrong acct and was fed dinner after all!

Waiting for kit to arrive
