Ugly Gun Sunday

Not really an ugly gun, just an ugly reminder of what can happen if you don't take them with you. If you are leaving the Gulf Coast, take your guns with you.

(could not resist)

Good advice Xavier. The one time I had to break camp over a major storm, my weapons were the first thing in the vehicle.; 6:11 AM

There's actually a dump site in the Gulf of Mexico off Florida where they used to dump confiscated firearms... looks like that could have been retrieved from a saltwater grave.; 9:23 AM

Unknown said...: Xavier, would you mind putting up a PSA about firearms and also black powder for those in the Gulf Coast? I helped with some of the relief efforts and, while dismayed by all of the corroded guns we found in the safes of houses we cleared, there was a surprising amount of black powder that got soaked and then dried. I could have been told wrong, but we were told that we shouldn't touch these and had to wait for a disposal team to come by, wasting a lot of our limited time.; 2:01 PM

....and pawn them along the way. ;-)

Hope everyone takes my attempt at humor the right way. I know a nasty storm made landfall about 10 am this morning, and I hope everyone is safe.

Gold, guns, and groceries all make good trading fodder. Take 'em with you if you don't want them to be seized. I'm somewhat afraid that Nagin will have a second chance to go door to door and loot any found firearms, only this time I hope we'll be watching.
