        If you're going to make an unfathomable comment you like made to ppolymorph, you deserve to get smacked. It doesn't matter what the rep points are. If OrignalGriff made the same comment you did I would have smacked him too.

            Sorry the "unfathomable" answer was given by him! And sorry such a generall answer given by me will end in endless downvotes! About the remaining "Of OrignalGriff made ...", it is your Statement, I can only hope it would be the truth, what I have to assume.

              It's really strange that no matter how many times you leave (by choice or vote) and come back, you never really learn anything from the exercise. It may be (as you once stated) your difficulties with the English language, but I get the distinct impression that it is just you.

                  Liberals, avert your eyes - I'm gonna be talking about guns. My dad recently passed away, and I inherited his 1957 Winchester Model 94. It was purchased new in 1958 for the frightening sum of $79.95 along with two boxes of ammo (which he still had). This gun has never had a round chambered, and as you might guess, is in "like new" condition. Along with the rifle, I got the original store receipt (from Sears), as well as some correspondence when a list of service parts was requested, along with the returned exploded drawing of the rifle, and the service parts list (and cost). The exploded view and parts list are printed on glossy paper stock and is dated, July 1 1956. I want to go out and shoot the rifle, but it's essentially a 60-year-old virgin, and doing so would immediately degrade the exceptional value of the gun. However, just in case I succumb to the urge, I ordered a Williams peep sight. It bolts to the gun through existing holes in the receiver, so at least I won't be drilling into anything to mount it.

                  What a very odd view of people you have. One can be an admirer of the craftsmanship involved in armaments without being required to think they should be freely available to any idiot to leave around the house or wave in the face of anyone who spills a bit of coffee on their shoes just because.

                  I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

                      Awesome weapon, definitely a keep sake. I saw on another site it was chambered 30-30...

                        That's just wrong on so many levels. And besides, the Garand is not "automatic", it's "semi-automatic", requiring one pull of the trigger for every round fired. It was fed by a top-loaded five-round clip (not a magazine) that was ejected with an audible "ding" sound when empty. It was chambered in 30-06, and accurate out to about 500 yards.

                        The version used at WWII had 8 round clips (a block with two rows of 4)...Even today a very accurate gun...

                                    That's just wrong on so many levels. And besides, the Garand is not "automatic", it's "semi-automatic", requiring one pull of the trigger for every round fired. It was fed by a top-loaded five-round clip (not a magazine) that was ejected with an audible "ding" sound when empty. It was chambered in 30-06, and accurate out to about 500 yards.

                                    Ah, so that's the difference. I've always wondered about this but never asked nor googled :-)

                                      Where do you order? Got a feeling may need to stock up.

                                      He doesn't order, he "suggests" -- and people can be remarkably obliging.

                                          Arithmetic doesn't come any simpler.
