Stupid People at GunShows
I had to tell you guys (and girls) about a dealer that got me fired up at the gun show today! Well I had just got my Desert Eagle checked in and started my way through the endless rows of tables on the everlong Death Head quest when I came across a dealer with 2 80-89% Weimar era Lugers on the table. He was telling a would-be buyer that it was made by "Gorge" Luger and was a fine weapon that John Browning help design, well I really wanted to educate this poor gentlemen but I did not want to make him look bad in front of the buyer. So I bit tongue (the nice thing to do) and reached to pick one up to take a look (very careful as it was my own) and as soon as I reached for it the man said in a very rude and loud voice "HEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING? DO NOOOT TOUCH THAT, IT'S A $1200 GUN". Now I'm thinking what did I do. Then he said it cost more than a person like me could afford!!!!This made me very mad so I pulled out my Desert Eagle I had suck down my pocket to look at the Luger (yes I had on military pants with BIG pockets) and sat it on the table and pulled out $1600 I had with me and said I think I have enough to cover it! I stuffed it back in my billfold and picked my DE up and said, "By the way his name ant "Gorge" Luger it's GEORG" (add a few more colorful words) and walked off. This makes me SO mad, not to mention the fact that the Lugers he had were worth about half of that. Oh well, I guess I had to vent a little.
