| So there I am looking at 1911 clone on a table full of used handguns when this guy next to me says "do you know anything about Lugers?" I turn to see this kid in full Goth-gear holding a High Point pistol or some variant thereof. I say that's not a Luger. He then points to the markings on the barrel that say--you guessed it--9MM Luger. |
| Bluefalcon: don't get your panties in a wad. Where did it say that I belittled/alienated him? Were you there? I DID talk with the kid, explaining in detail about bbl markings, manufaturer's markings, etc and answering his questions in a respectful manner. Sorry I only put in the part of the story that I considered a little funny. Feel free to put a gold star in the "Righteous Indignation" column of your "bitch of the day" scorecard. Next time ask instead of making accusations. |
Uh, I think Strela is winning this debate!

Thats pretty good.
I don't care about the goth shithead, I don't care about the weather, I don't care about Morrisey's whiny bitch ass, I don't really care what time I get out of work today but
is some of the best sigline material I've ever seen. Just. Fucking. Classic. |
That adds another $200 to the price, right? Ironically, I had a dream last night where I had a little pocket pistol that was engraved saying it was a presentation by Hitler to some nazi dude. And people kept chasing after me trying to steal it, but I couldn't sell it for beans. |
sorry, didn't mean to offend you but i was actually reffering to dv8's comment. i suppose i probably should have been more clear about that by quoting him/her. |
Haven't you ever seen "A Christmas Story?" The kid wanted a Daisy Red Rider BB gun and everyone told him "You'll shoot your eye out!" Being the Christmas Season, I was merely referencing a seasonal classic.

| oh, i know. i just get tired of hearing people trash on new shooters. there are alot of folks out there who revel in hating on people because they used the word "clip" to describe a magazine. i swear some of these guys get wood from it and then they wonder why our community is shrinking and losing support. i didn't really mean anything by it, i guess i was just venting. (aka crapping on somebody else's thread) |

but the real question becomes... how was the beef jerky and beanie baby selection hosted by Ex Recon Ranger Seals who did covert ops in the Nam even though they're about 30?  Seriously though...funny story and thanks for setting someone straight regardless of how they look. Goth people are your friends and tend to be more entertaining than 99% of the cookie cutter society out there!
