After reading this and the other two threads, I think you need a hobby.

LMAO!

Some of those are pretty funny, to a degree. #10 at least for me. The right light in certain conditions is a lifesaver. No one thinks of it as a weapon, or the SS barrel of my inkpen for that matter. I may not be able to lug my side arm into some buildings but nobody bats an eye at either of the other two items mentioned. The strike bezel on the flash light alone should be considered an "edged" weapon. :-D

Wish I could take credit. All I am doing is passing on some old files I ran across hoping others may find humor in it. We all need to laugh - even you [smilie=w:[smilie=s::shock:

Glad to hear it.

If you noticed ,my response, though meant to be funny may not have been taken that way. And that sir, is why I post other folks work. :bigsmyl2:

May you and all the good folks of castboolit have a very merry Christmas![smilie=p:

Not exactly on topic but how do I cut and paste "Gun Nomenclature" so that the letters come out larger so I can cover a full page? I tried putting it into word and changing the font size but that didn't work. I'd like to post this on the board at the Club. Nick

Belay that request--I posted it in notepad then copied that into Word larger and it worked. Sorry for interrupting the thread.
