    Price Check: Egyptian Maadi

    "Misr" spelled out in English is the Arabic word for Egypt. So I would guess that it is just displaying both so English and Arabic readers and understand that it is Egpytian.

    Have you ever thought about the history behind your guns?

    Im pretty sure that my oct-nov 1943 born springfield garand has had a few germans or italians in its sights...and if not, i still treat it as if its the most coveted thing I own because I know it has a well earned story, and has been appreciated and trusted by a soldier from days passed.

    Am I insane?

    I picked up 3 - 100rd boxes of 9mm for the glock 17 my old man saw fit to give me on the day, and a bottle of Crown Royal. Im sure the clerk at Wally World thought something was wrong with me as I came through the line. Shot through all the rounds when we got home, and dad and a few buds of...

    Kinda nice...Kinda weird...Kinda annoying RO.

    I have only heard one nam vet talk about the war period, out of all of the nam vets I know. The only reason he said anything was to prove a point as he was instructing us at the badlands. I agree with Larry.

    Filling the gun coffers?

    I go the change route. Side jobs help. I do not smoke and I have cut drink down to once a month, if at all. Another thing that helps is if they ask for overtime, I am the first one in line. Most of my overtime pay goes into the me fund. Aluminum cans work, the price per pound keeps...
