    snatch them up while you can, not a lot of good deals out there, though this is the time of year most people are desperate for money, one of the better buying times....

    They might not be guns I want but I can always use them for trade for the ones I do.

    I've been dry lately. I had good luck over the last year. I picked up a Glock 17 and 22, $300/350. Got a Dan Wesson 8" .22 for $250. And a couple of others. But now nothing is catching my eye or wallet.

    Times are tough and a lot of folks are broke. Those are always good times to find great prices.

    One might ponder the propriety of taking advantage of other people in their moment of need.

    The next time you come across someone in need, give them one of your guns so that they can sell them for the cash. Me, I'll take the good deal and the person in need will still have some cash.

    I don't set the price, they do. They always seem happy when I give them their asking price without trying to haggle.

    Pawn shop guns around here are pretty much always overpriced.

    Generally speaking, the selection consists of a bunch of Bubba guns....rusted beyond belief and sold at a price only slightly lower (and sometimes higher [:0]) than I could buy a new one for.

    Outside a small town in Alabama, a sheriff drives down a dirt road and parks on the side, intending to set up a few bottles and take some target practice. He walks a few steps into the woods and finds a naked man tied to a tree. The man says, "They took my clothes, tied me butt-naked to this tree and stole my car." The sheriff, as he unzipped his own fly, said, "Boy, this just ain't your day, is it?"
