Sixpack, let me tell you a story...

A guy is driving home from a sales call. He's just outside Yakima, Washington. He sees a grey haired old lady out in an apple orchard from the interstate. She's shooting something and it's giving her problems. He can't believe it, so he stops. It can't be what he thinks it is. but, it is. He talks with her for a moment. Then Trades a Ruger 10-22 with a scope for this bothersome weapon.


That was me. 1989. I traded a fine ruger 10-22 for a 1902 Luger carbine that wouldn't function with standard .30 calibre Luger ammo.

It never shot fer sh*t and I ended up trading it for Marine Corp '03 sniper which turned out to be a fake. I traded that for bnz43 low turret mount which also turned out to be a fake, I traded that for a belgian FN/FAL...

And the old lady in the orchard lived happily ever after killing birds with a perfectly good 10-22 with a redfield 4x scope.
