Thank you jack. Yes, it is ghetto, i should practicing more on painting and stock making. I know I have seen that kind of post here but can't find it anymore.
And bravootome, free ammo, nothing better, also helping the environment for planting more trees ha ha. My gun is not so powerfull so most seeds are intake. According to GGDT I should be able to plant tree 185 m away.
