Pics of my Kar98K, also found a rifle in a buddy's grandfathers basement.

Don't know if it's still there or not, but when the oil patch was getting going in Newfoundland, there was a restaurant/bar in downtown St. John's called the "Sundance Saloon". Place was done up like a Toronto advertising executive's idea of what a bar in Calgary SHOULD look like. I was in there with Dave Yager from "The Roughneck" and Dave noticed "Buffalo Chips" on the menu. He told the cutie who was waiting tables, "Hey, where I come from we try not to step in those; we sure don't EAT 'em!"

What we really need is a National Society for the Protection of Chickens. Just imagine all those poor chickens running around out there with no fingers and no balls!!!! HOW are they supposed to eat????? We could have big street marches and singing, just like back in the '60s but without Commies to ruin everything. We could tell the CBC that our guns are to protect the poor chickens.... they are just about dumb enough to fall for it, too. Could be fun. We'd get the CBC on our side, anyway, and once they are on your side, truth is no deterrant to a good heartrending story.

I have to take off now; store is opening pretty quick and I need a new roll of tinfoil; this hat is just about worn out. Too many Z-rays, I guess. Say, you ever notice how many zombies hang around tofu bars? I wonder.......

I'm still confused about what part of the chicken the "fingers" and "nuggets" come from.;) Being an old farm boy I used to have to dig under the old hens for eggs, something I never liked doing. Never found any "fingers" or "nuggets", but did learn what "peckish" meant.:p Then there's buffalo "wings", another of modern society's great nutritional enigmas.

With all of the great food in Germany, I could never understand why anyone would go into a McDildoes over there.:eek: Maybe just curiosity.

If you think chicken fingers & nuggets are rare, where do chinese food joints get those mutant chicken balls?

That is an awful way to treat chickens. I saw a photograph of one of the boneless chicken ranches that supply the grocery chains. All those poor chickens sprawled around, immobile, laying in their own droppings. THE HORROR!!
 
Knew a fellow who partway put himself through university by starting the International Society to Save the Borg. He wrote up pamphlets about how terribly those cute little Borgs were being treated..... friendly little creatures torn from their mothers only a few days after birth...... treated abominably by profit-lusting businessmen...... actually screaming as they were skinned alive, just to make fun-fur linings for coats and gloves....... all the rest. He was as surprised as anyone when people started sending him money to support the Good Work of raising the public consciousness and agitating for legislation to protect the poor things.

Borg is an ARTIFICIAL insulating fur. It's made in a factory. No living, breathing little furry animal, screaming or otherwise, is harmed in its production.

To quote dear old P. T. Barnum, "There's one born every minute!".

The really scary thing to think about is this: if you can get results like that, using just a photocopier and a Gestetner machine, what can you achieve with a billion-dollar budget to back you up?

For an answer, just ask any unemployed Newfoundland sealer or fisherman. Our national media backed fully the impoverishment of that Province, for purely political purposes, and doesn't even have the good grace to be embarassed by the results of their own deception.

Who needs tinfoil hats? There's enough REAL lunacy going around already.

Wow! This thread has really drifted away from those pretty rifles. The Kar is a pretty one indeed and should be looked after well and shot with the finest of ammo (handloads, of course) and the Vergueiro should be restored to service just as soon as the parts can be located. Restored, the Vergueiro is just SO smooth that it's hard to believe that any mechanical object could be THAT slick..... and still handle 50,000 psi without a bobble. Believe it or not, they sold for $39.95 WITH number-matching bayonet when they were available. It's only in the last 10 years that the prices on these have started to climb.

I referred to a red fun-fur coat at the mall as "Muppet Skin" and my little girl ran out of Old Navy screaming that somebody had killed Elmo...
