Talk about an upgrade!
« 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!!!"

You mean to tell me that if I had met this guy twenty years ago I would have thirty fewer guns, but one I had would be a Barrett?

Yeah...I think the math works out to about that. ;D
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

All I want to know is what kind of a job does he have and where does he work! 5 cans of .50 cal. ammo in two days!

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!

Ditto the job comment.  That man has quite the disposable income "problem"
The person who has nothing for which his is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I wonder if he owns a mansion with a plane parked in the front yard? That's disposable income. ;D
