Default Heston....Rot in hell!

Ozzy, I'm among those bright enough to know gun laws in the USA are a
joke, but Heston's support for gun ownership is among the most
misquoted set of lies and taken-out-of-context statements ever. A few
comments he made happened when he was "under attack" by the media.
He was in The Naked Jungle and Planet of the Apes, and that's what
really counts. I mean...the guy was an actor fer cripes sake. Nobody
but the media ever cared about his gun crap. But Soylent Green? Now
THAT was something!

FYI, I own a 1940 Winchester 37 16 gauge and am about to drop a lot of
cash on a rare Winchester 94 30/30.



What makes it "rare"? Model 94s are pretty common, even an old one with
steel but plate and steel sling swivel can be had for a couple of
hundred bucks. Did Chuck Conners use it in "Rifle Man"?
