What is the meaning of the three dots inked on your hand?

I read the tattoo in such a way:

The first dot is a passion to work
The second point is about the passion for history
The third point is the sympathy for the people

It's a shame you can't hunt with that rifle, Runar.  That would make a fine hunting rifle in the woods where I live.

Very nice work, I've really enjoyed this thread.

You can hunt small game with blackpowder firearms in Norway, but for big game they just don`t have enough kinetic energy to hunt big game legaly  :)

Very nice job by the way Runar  ;)

nicely! I like when the work is easy to read techniques . This is consistent with the original work of ordinary craftsmen of the period XVIIIth and early nineteenth-century.

Yes I know, we have some very strange hunting laws in Norway, all hunting weapons must be a gunpowder firearm, that rules out bows, crossbows, airguns and even firearms without a stock like pistols and revolvers are illegal for hunting any game  :-\
