My father used to tell this one........back in the 1950's he went to work at a local hardware store, that had a very good gun section. He traded in a Marlin lever gun in 25-20 for a Winchester Model 12 in 20 gauge, and the Marlin sat there for a quite a well without generating any interest. Kentucky was having it's first deer season in many years, and an old Black guy comes in looking for a deer gun. He sees the 25-20 and asked the guy that was working the gun counter that day if that rifle would kill a deer. "Kill a deer," the salesman answered, "that rifle will kill a bear." The old Black man said...."dats the one I want, cause you never know what's out dere in dem woods."
