Guy was talking about how cops found a few guns and some number of hundreds of rounds of ammo in some guys' car trunk. I had to explain that sounded like a good haul from the gun show for many of us.<BR/><BR/>The people who aren't part of the gun culture just don't understand what constitutes "sufficient", I guess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
