I picked up #48 today. The NRA edition Ruger 22/45. This has the

is done so now the ATF waiting game begins. I shot one of these at
the
Ruger factory - actually their outdoor range down the street - and
all
you can hear is the action, the hit on the steel target and the
shell
casing hitting the concrete floor. It wasn't my first color of
choice
but the NRA edition only comes in red and it looks better in person
than
the photo on ruger.com.

When I picked it up today, a older guy at the store was buying five
guns. When he left they told me he owns over 2,000 guns! I can't
think
of 2,000 that I would like to own if I had that kind of scratch
but he
evidently has an impressive collection.

His last name was 'Smithsonian'?

It could be. They think he said 2700 at last count.

Well, congrats on #48. Did I tell you I wore my NRA cap to Golden
Corrall last time we took the kids
for breakfast. Three people came up and told me what a great hat I
had. Got a few dirty looks from
liberals too, but that just increased the satisfaction.


Might not have been "liberals." Might have been non-aligned citizens who
are horrified by your pimping for a terrorist organization. I still get
mailings from the NRA, which I usually return in an unstamped envelope
with the hope the terrorists have to pay postage due.

How do you find so much spare time to be an asshole?


It's that overly generous military pension.
Why would the military pension a cowardly asshole like you?

Recovering soldiers' bodies in Vietnam?
