M'ette also sent something for her personal corner........................

As much as I love M'ette, Julie and Jessie ... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Michael and Marshal, I want to get to convention just to meet Uncle Ted!  I need people around me that understand me, and I think he would 

I'd love to hang out with Uncle Ted, too, but something tells me Jessie probably smells a lot better, and she sure as hell LOOKS a lot better!!

And if the chips were down, I think Jessie would do a better job of saving my life when the shooting started.

COOL.   Thanks for the photos.

Check out the price of this Liberator reproduction.  They cost how much when they were new?

I want to say the original cost was something ~$2.50.  The box and ammo cost more than the gun.

My #1 Daughter-in-laws' father has a NIB original.   When he first showed it to me a decade or so ago, I told him a couple of hundred.  I later informed him that prices have now shot up to a couple of thousand for his 90%+ version.

Always nice to see pics of my future wife. 

Sorry but you need to go to the back of the line; right behind me!

I'm sorry gentlemen, but my marriage license is going to get awful crowded with all of these names on it.

I have to ask WHY? on this piece. A cool piece of history yes, but $600 for a fire and forget weapon that would have a Saturday night special looking down its nose? Here, I lose the the plot. Lots of cool guns on offer though. Maybe next year.....
