    Ahhh Poo !!

    I saw the title to this thread and thought BOYOHBOY!!! I get a gift card of my choice to the gunstore of my choice!!!!

    Rats!!!

    Well, I can buy some capguns, and there's a Raven we found in some bushes a while back - half of one grip is all worm eaten from being in the dirt for so long. Sell enough of these and I can buy some reloading supplies.....

      I have this old Carcano that is so screwed up, the shops here laugh at me when I try to trade it off. They point at me and tell the other patrons that I'm trying to sell it and they jeer at me too.
      Its very damaging to my self-esteem.

      I try to point out to them that the Warren Commission Report declared Carcanos the fastest, most accurate rifles ever made in the history of the world. That this rifle can do head shots on a moving target from elevated positions at several hundred yards and can also do zig-zag shots that enter, exit and then re-enter the body.
      At this point they start throwing things at me and the shop owner starts to curse at me.
      My poor Carcano...
      My Carcano cant do all that maybe it is worth more than the 50 bucks I paid for mine.



      By the way I was crying with laughter.

        Looks like those on the warren commission didn't have a clue about firearms.

            Moonclip, I think you mean www.thehighroad.org
            Sorry I was tired! I did turn in a rifle after all, a real POS really non functional ancient 22lr single shot. Got the Ralphs card and gave it to my best friends dad for Hannukah as they are struggling a bit. This year you have to drive up and there is more deputies but they had better attitude, wonder though if they were taking down license plate #'s. They take weapon out of yor trunk for you!, it was lkike McD's drive thru, I didn't even get out of car! Best part was I was with my dad and my best friends dad and he didn't really know what we were up to!

            They only got like 51 guns probably because only $50 bucks this year and they supposedly got over 600 last year. There was a article on it in Sun LA Times. I may bring another gun but I doubt it. Caused family turmoil too, my sis was pissed I didn't give her gift card like last year!

              Well, I just called the Compton Po-Po department, it turns out you dont have to be a Compton resident like the news ad says.. I'll be there swindling a $50 dollar gift card out of the cops in exchange for a bubba'd French MAS 1939 rifle. I thought I'd never get rid of this rifle...
              Carcano > MAS 39.. Ha Ha Ha.

                AK flats, $10...

                ATF says it's a gun as soon as it's bent.

                Got a bending jig...

                Nah, they'd take 'em but refuse to give gift cards.
