Well, the price is way out of my league, but I DO know how to use it. Might even know a few places to put it to good use. sofa

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

Nice little piece. But at that price, I believe I'll just capture one the next time the Rebs pass through here on their way back across the Potomac to Virginia........

It is a mess- the right hand & left hand are mad at each other..I figure Beretta will end up with the Winchester name.

I have been a victim of the good old boy network, with southerners in the military for years. You take care of your own too well, and it's often contradictory to morale.

I do what I can to squash that shit like a bug in ranks.

Always nice to have a CO from the West, especially one that spent 4 years at the Academy being force fed Southern good-old-boy-ship.

The Navy is bad enough, I spent two months in Vietnam on a POW/MIA recoverry mission with the Army. That thing is almost 70% Southerners
