Title: Talk about an upgrade!
Post by: Lucas on June 15, 2008, 01:12:51 AM: So Im in at my local gun store and after my usual browsing and ammo purchase Im talking to the owner and he say he has just gotta tell me something before I go. So he goes on to tell me that three days earlier a fella came in went straight to the 50 bmg and said I want that one! He picked up 3 cans, repeat cans, of ammo and was off. He came in two days later and picked up another two cans. When the owner said something along the lines that he must be one hell of a shooter the guy replied "yeah, I'm hooked, this is my second gun!" The owner asked him what the h*ll his first gun was and the guy said " A Daisy Pelet Gun!!!"

From the Red Ryder to Rambo in 7.3 seconds!!!

In time yes but yesterday I completed the inventory for insurance (agent had to come out and verify), and this is a list I don't want the wifey to see !!! Dollar wise it could be more like a few Barretts.

On the plus side, I have not regretted the guns I have and the constant checking to make sure I have fuel for each of them. I look and drool over the Big Dog often, but I just don't have a good place to use it to its best. Heaven help me if we ever move to an area with more wide open spaces!
