Flintlocks and Flop-topsI go to this fun show not looking for anything in particular, but I'm sure I'll find something I just won't be able to live without.
And Number Three Russians
Black-powder Mausers
From jackbooted Prussians,
Shiny Smith PC's from limited runs
These are a few of my favorite guns.
Socketed bay'nets
On Zulu War rifles,
Engraved, iv'ried Lugers
That make quite an eyefull
Mosin tomato stakes sold by the ton
These are a few of my favorite guns.
Rusty top-breaks!
Smallbore Schuetzens!
And all of Browning's spawn
I just keep on browsing my favorite guns
Until all my money's gone.
Books. Bikes. Boomsticks.

Fun Show time again in Indy!
Let's sing the Fun Show song!
I'm sure you'll reel in something cool n' obscure n' desirable.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot a verse:
ReplyDelete"When the Snow Falls
When the Roads Suck
When my Ammo is Running Low;
I just get into my Zed Drei
and head to the Indy Gun Show!"
I was really getting into my Julie Andrews when the third stanza came up a line short.
ReplyDeleteThat song sure is fun.
ReplyDeleteTam: I 'was' headed there, but circumstances overwhelmed my position. (Kinda like my military outpost got over-run by the gooks in the wire.) Gotta pack for Shot and other insanity. I owe you some 9, which I'll get to ya when I get back...
ReplyDeleteAll The Best,
Frank W. James

ReplyDeleteLove those contextuals!
I had a hard time not buying a Browning FN 1903 in 9mm Browning Long the last show. Always wanted one.
ReplyDeleteI really need to e-mail you a BOLO list of old gun and gear want's I'd love to run across. Between you and Roberta you gal's are eagle eyed.
