SHOT Show Never Ends...

So, I'm sitting on the plane to Denver when the Mrs. hands some snacks across the aisle to me for TheBoy. As we do the handoff, the guy waiting to take his seat jokes "hey, can I have some snacks?" I look at his shirt and he's with LMT and reply "Lewis Machine Tool? Sure! What do you want?" We exchanged cards and he tells me to give a shout if I need any parts; I respond by handing over my last card and saying "give a holler if you need anything reviewed"...

Always workin' it...

That is all.

See if you can score a T&E MWS .308 - Mine is far and away the nicest rifle I have shot.

I'm curious if this trip is your family's first serious exposure to the reach of your blog, and if so, what they think about it.

That's the biz, sweetheart. (10 points to the first person to identify the origin of that quote.) But I imagine you know the value of networking already.

Dave H - Thanks to you, I have now learned that there was much Remo Williams before there was the movie that caused tears of laughter and more bad quotes after the hangovers wore off. Excuse me, I think I need to go track down the books...

OaWaaW: Don't thank me until you've read a few of the books. The bad quotes weren't just in the movie. (But casting Joel Grey as a Korean martial arts master? Nobody but Hollywood to blame for that.)

That said, if you like pulp adventures in the vein of Doc Savage or the Avenger, the Destroyer series should work for you. The main difference is the sarcastic tone. Imagine if the writers of MST3K wrote the dialog for Kung Fu and 24.

LOL... LMT Monolith is what you want to 'review' :-)

Cool, I bought a LMT AR about 4 years ago and it's always run through multiple classes without a problem.

The .308 MWS is definitely on my "lottery" list.

ABC. Always be closing. Heh.
