My disabled Vietnam Veteran freind Jim M called me and told me about the wonderful soda can launching cannon he bought, but told me it requires 223 or 5.56mm blank cartridges for its launching power. And, he tells me the usual sources (Midway etc) are not helping. Nothing in stock so far.

Anyone out here in Campfire land have some they want to sell?

Thanks,

MARK

I have a couple full boxes and some bandoliers full. I would like to sell them all. Send your zip so I can find out what the shipping will be.

Beats hiding behind his wife's skirts. And he figures that "it's for a disabled Vietnam Vet" might get better traction than "I'm so sick and poor but highly religious."

Let the seller beware.


Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!

They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

I sent you Jim's zip code, which is in Orangevale California. When we get a price including shipping I will forward that to him for him to follow through. He does not see a computer screen very well and belongs to no forums etc.

Same guy we all went in together for about 5 years ago to get him a low recoil deer rifle. Ended up being a browning semiautomatic 243 with a Loopy 4.5-14. He absolutely loves it.

I will try to post a picture from my cell phone of him enjoying that rifle.

Hi injuries are physical, emotional and other problems common to combat veterans from that war.

Thanks in advance.

I have not been here much mostly due to no inventory. Thanks for the well wishes. Still the same stalkers, but nothing that is worrisome. Sold all of the last stuff I posted here. Down to just a few keepers for armament but that is quite allright. Life is GOOD. New kidney coming for me soon, too! smile

I'm afraid you will never get away from the stalkers. For some strange reason they have a problem with crooked dealing on these or any other forums. Imagine that smile
Good luck with the new kidney.. and I am serious when I say that.

I dont hide behind anyone. 1) I do need to and 2) I am too big! grin

What is REALLY hiding, and weak, is tossing out name's and trying to be tough from behind a keyboard. Quite sad and even worthy of pity. Would be more sad if I cared about it, though.

FWIW, once the transaction details are figured out it will be directly between Jim M and the seller.

Frank, I sent you a PM with Jim's zip code.

Be assured. If I ever see you in person, I'll tell you this chit to your face. Keep that in mind when you're inviting yourself on hunts and shoots.

Swindling the elderly is right there with tool thieves in my book. Pure scum.

Why don't you just go visit him and get it all off your chest. But then you won't have a reason to stalk him anymore so I guess that would never work.

But then, he's only a fourteen hour drive away.

I'm quite certain the reward would not be worth the effort.

The world is unfortunately full of the "safariman" type.

I really don't think so. Common thieves do that.

It takes more guts to earn your money by honest work.

Precisely my point.

I love how claiborne is throwing "coward" around now.

It is incredibly disappointing that Ricks allows you to continue posting here.

No wonder this site has gone downhill.
