Why is everyone in such a hurry to see the man sell his gun? My Christmas card list is longer than the list of people looking for an incomplete Repro. It's only been a week since the sad event. Last time I checked, Jarheads don't retreat, they dig in. There's probably more than a dozen of you with two barrel sets, most of whom don't shoot both. Show a Vet some love and loan the man a fore end and a piece of duct tape. Hell, Veteran's day was only a week ago.

I was at our local Amish market today. The clerk at the donut counter saw my Marine Corps Foundation ball cap, commented and thanked me for my service. Well, I'm an Army veteran, but I thanked him. He still collected full price for my dozen donuts. He could have thrown in one extra, but didn't.

Good point. I have seen a couple that had two FE, but they weren't 12ga.
