Living Large

We went to a local restaurant’s grand opening over the weekend and they had cars like this on display to set the mood. Me, I was wondering why I had to park the 2015 Sonic a couple of blocks away.

We were in the middle of the lotus root and Peking duck when the Mrs. nudged me and said “There’s that famous reporter guy over there, the Al Capone’s vault guy…”

I looked over and sure enough, seated with some well-heeled types at the end of a table a few down from ours was none other than Geraldo, who seemed to be having a good time and was, for the most part, not overly bothered by occasional patrons recognizing him and begging for selfies.

I made her squirm a bit when I threatened to walk over and show him a selfie I’d posted some years back.

On the Gunny Side of the Street

WarOnGuns Correspondent JR asks if a public easement means you can be armed on private property traversed by a sidewalk.

Weasel Wording with Winchester II

WarOnGuns Correspondent Mike F writes:

I contacted Winchester Customer Support and got the same response that the other gentleman received.

The same non-response

Based on the number of gun owners contacting them, that is, a handful, they feel they can ignore inquiries. That tells us something about their management. It also tells us about something else.

It’s nice to know they’re not all like that.

Speaking of Zero Tolerance for FFL Errors…

*Glock 22 40 caliber REVOLVER??
*Glock Model 27 45 (it is supposed to be a 40)
*Browning B799 (it should be a BT-99) 12 ga

This wouldn’t be a big deal, but…the ATF is shutting down gun dealers for minor paperwork errors… [More]

I came across this 2008 post while looking for something else. The original link to the spreadsheet is no more so I had to download one from the Wayback Machine.
