List your shooters: Part VI

[deo62]

His last bump said he was offended at all the laughing emojis on his $3500 price

 

[Cameramonkey]

I think so. If it’s who I think it is. He wanted to lurk in the classies and not contribute and apparently $20 was too rich for his blood. So he chose to leave instead of becoming a site supporter.

And it’s probably a good thing. That spendy monster needed a MUCH bigger audience than INGO could provide to find enough folks with enough to drop.

It wasn’t that overpriced for what it was based on how they are made. Would I spend that kind of bank? No. But I’m sure somebody living In a big enough house driving a fancy enough car would be into it. But I don’t think we have many of those here.

It would be like Fenway expecting to sell the Bugatti here.
EDIT: I think the term I was looking for was "Someone with 'screw you' money." Like an Irsay or Penske, etc.

Actually had nothing to do with the supporter status at the time the hammer was dropped. Sent me a nice PM bashing the site and running the mouth about how unfair his ban was. Then said he was leaving the site, so I helped him out with that

I didnt want to get that into detail and air our dirty laundry... but now that you mention it... LOL

But that was the gist of what happened. We said join, he said "no" (paraphrased) and so you showed him the door. There were just a few choice words in his refusal I failed to mention.

Ultimately, he would have been gone even if he gave us a polite no and refused to participate.

Beware armslistians, he said he was headed there with his toys

I sincerely hope he gets out from under that thing. I cant imagine having that much cash in something so nitche that is so hard to unload without losing your shirt. That is probably why he was so irritable. I would be too if I had that much trouble extracting cash out of something that big.

In the Mod Zone (where the staff discusses bans as well as really boring behind the scenes stuff) in the latest shooter discussion I commented on how to NOT get banned. The more I think about it, realizing that not every hill is worth dying on is definitely a step in the right direction.

The Armslistians were a proud people. Unfortunately for them they were between Hannibal and the Roman Empire... it seems the elephants really hated the Armslistians.

Yes I did just make that up.

If only Gandalf hadn’t turned on them

And Skynet!!

I thought you did. Elephants did'nt really hate Armslistians. They were quite fond of them actually because they brought plenty of peanuts for them.

That was just the female elephants

So what you are saying is my Coonan and Centurion Mk11 will go the grave with me?

 

[Sigblitz]

If it's the $10,000 Kimber, it's a $2800 piece if I recall correctly.

 

[bobzilla]

Wait there was a $10k Kimber? Damnit I always miss the good stuff

 

[Cameramonkey]

It debuted at $8k as I recall. When I saw it and thought “no way” but found a shill at Guns and Ammo (or some other gun rag) shilling for it saying it’s worth it if you have the cash and a taste for the finer things in life and can appreciate craftsmanship. (I suspect the author was either gifted one or compensated otherwise. )

Yeah, no. It better have meteorite grips for that price.

 

[jamil]

most virtue signallers only 'half a** it.
One way you know they don't actually believe it.

Yeah, like the angry feminists who half-ass it by wearing ***** hats instead of marching topless.

Either fully commit or stay home.

Oh no! We don’t want that. Most of those pink hats are nasty. I encourage them to keep their shirts on.

Well yeah. Of course. I’m not advocating.

Not that the would should have to see it, but I’m just saying they can’t commit 100%.

I think that is for the gun plus the accumulated bills for smith work to make it run reliably
