-JQ- Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I just thought I'd share a little bit of lore that I heard the other night when visiting a shop here in SW OH...yeah you know the one. I went to buy some misc items but just couldn't give THEM my money and just left. FWIW these things COULD be true... ..I'm no weapon historian... "Yes maam. You need a revolver. Revolvers will be ready to go anytime - years from now. You leave it in a drawer and it will be ready forever. Those Glocks now...they have springs. And, as you know, springs go bad. A revolver is just right for you." "Desert Eagle - that was designed to be a one-time use weapon. It was only meant to be used in an emergency and then discarded." These quotes were within 10 minutes of each other. There were more but I can't remember all the BS as my BS filter was on High. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisStock Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Oh my PM name of store at your leisure, please. You apparently exercised more restraint than I am capable of.... I might've been tempted to call them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxshooter Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Desert Eagles are pretty expensive one time use throw away guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFlowers Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Desert Eagles are one-time use items for most people. They buy them, shoot them once, then find a way to sell them as soon as enough time has passed that they don't look like sissy boys! Its amazing how many 6 month old, 4-6 round count 44 and 50 caliber Desert Eagles show up as trade-ins. P.S. Yes, I am being a mean, sarcastic grump today.

Miranda Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 at the range I frequent, a fellow with a 50 cal desert eagle let me try it. I don't know If I hit the target. I decided two things. If I had one for home defense, the noise from the blast would scare any intruder away. and I'd perfer a .45 oooof. miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
