    What does "LMN" mean?

    I know what LRN means. I know what WFN and SWC mean. But I can't figure out what LMN means. Little help?

    Little Mean Nasty ?

    I think it has something to do with hillary clinton.

    But I could be wrong.
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    "LRN bullets are completely dark grey with a rounded nose. (No copper color or colored tip, and no points at the front.) For many people, they are the basic image pictured when they hear the word “bullet.” Lead Round Noses are also the most historic of all bullet types."

    Veral Smith term, Long Flat nose, Long Medium Nose, Flat Nose, Wide Flat Nose. I don't think I have had one of his fliers since two moves ago. The terms are about bullet length to meplate ratio.
