you own anything rare?


**** that.

86

Agreed... something that old and historic should be in a museum or kept as a family heirloom.

Destroying history like that pisses me off...

i have more than 1 gun or item that represents my family that i wont let the goverment take. **** them. i follow the laws and do what i should. i am keeping my property.

86

We had an M1 Carbine my dad got from my grandpa. My grandpa had claimed he snuck it out of the army in WWII. I told that tale my whole childhood.

I have my grandpa's separation papers. He was in the army for about the last 15-minutes of WW2 and was seperated at his basic training camp in Arkansas. The carbine turned out to be an Alpine brand, assembled out of government surplus spare parts in the '60s and was the junkiest damn thing I ever saw. It was a dangerously loose piece of junk and I cut it up--along with a pile of 1950s hardware store $10 shotguns that were just as junky after 50 years.

UNREGISTERED???
What part of FREEDOM do you not understand?
Sheep!
I'm not guna say what I wuz guna say...:annoyed:

I dont collect guns. I like paintballing and shooting stuff because Im just like any other kid but having a real gun, especially since we dont hunt or need to hunt isnt really a priority. Do you guys dont believe I had this in my possession? Or do you think its stupid that I turned it in? Come on say what you were "guna" say.

I am being completely honest, me and my Dad did some research on the rifle my Opa gave us and searched the model and make and all the little doodles it had and apparently it was the model that had the best cycling bolt or something and was one of the best models of the Enfield. I never said this rifle was a sniper rifle and it killed Hitler. I never said my Opa was a nazi who wrestled a British sniper for it or anything far fetched. In fact my Opa bought it as a hunting rifle in the 70's, my Opa was a little kid during WW2.

You guys should grow up because I honestly cant tell the difference between your sentences and some bashing little 14 year old punk on Xbox live.

And one more thing, I live in Canada. We avoid the "freedom" of giving out weapons to children like you.

I would say overall they are probably more annoyed that you HAD to turn it in than that you actually did.

I guess I really don't see what parts of those posts are bashing you personally, I am glad I didn't mention my dad has an M1 carbine and I like to shoot it so I didn't get quoted as bashing you too.:icon_confused:

We avoid the freedom of criminals being the only people to carry guns, and so far the mindless sheep in our country that think that outlawing them is a good thing remain both out numbered and out gunned.
 
I have an '86 and an '87 Ranger with 3.0s, removable bellhousings,and speed density. Not many of those anywhere else in the world.
 
I still have my Superman the Movie magazine. All the way back from the first original film with Christopher Reeves. I have my Fathers 12GA Variable choke Sears & Roebuck shotgun that was made in 1958. People now days call it a goose gun, damn near ripped my arm off with 00buck. Has a recoil pad on it as well. Most that see it will not attempt to fire it.
 
tv guide from the week of jfk funeral and original hardback copy of the warren commision report.think gunsmoke was top rated show at the time.
 
Maybe you should go back and read it in context when 86ford quotes me and says "f*** that". Then Insanejughead agrees and 86ford makes another comment and we get a story from Will about how his grandpa lied to him implying that Im lying or my Opa is lying, I wasnt quite sure but why even post that after quoting me except to imply that? I got the idea that these guys called me a liar or bashed me for turning it in. I guess it's my fault though somehow because I was too blind to see their original intent behind those comments.

So I guess sometimes "f*** that" has a lot deeper meaning than just a profane phrase. My mind has not yet comprehended the vast meanings behind the "F" word.
 
Nothing particularly valuable, but an interesting eclectic mix I think.....

-A demo copy marked "Not for Sale" original Pink Floyd album "Wish You Were Here", supposedly given to a radio station way back when
-a 1973 VW Bus with 9 passenger seating, 3 full bench seats, supposedly rare in the U.S.
-original Windows 3.1 disks, (6 disk set)
-Chevy 400 flywheel, (for a 383 storker motor I never built)
-Sega Dreamcast System
-Steve Largent 2nd year football card, Hall of Fame wide receiver for the Seattle Seahawks, now a U.S. Congressman
 
Correction, STROKER motor. I was planning on building for my Jeep, found a AMC 360 drop in instead...
 
wait, the dreamcast counts? i also got old coins, a silver certificate, and two $2 bills

You just reminded me of my story. I wasn't thinking about you at all. I could give a shit if you have the car the Archduke Ferdinhand was killed in in your garage and Jimmy Hoffa's body in your septic tank.

What's more, you seem to read into everything as an attack on you. Fact is, for most people this is really light stuff. Don't dig up offenses where none were intended.

And don't attack other people.

And what is an Opa? Is that like a nanny?
