...and what they do to or with their guns?
Over the years, I've seen a lot of strange things that folks have done to their guns, heard of odd ways they maintain them, read weird accounts of a gun owners tactical ideas, and on and on. Some I understand, others make me scratch my head and wonder what in Hades was that guy thinking! I figured a thread about what each of us finds unbelievable or beyond comprehension when it comes to guns & their owners could be amusing and maybe even informative.
So, I'll start with something I've never quite understood about some gun owners and that is when selling one or more of their used guns, they ask for way more than the selling price of the same exact model when brand spanking new. I don't know if it is greed or that they overpaid for it when they bought it but when someone asks for 10, 15, even 20% or more, for a used gun (with no improvements) over the selling price of the same new gun I just don't get it. Well, I do get it if you're married and she who must be obeyed told you to sell some of them or else; I mean ask way too much - get no buyers - explain to her you tried to sell it and show her the ad you posted. Otherwise though, it's a mystery to me how someone actually expects to find a buyer when doing that.
