Dear Marland- My uncle left a gun in the out house a long time ago. I think it's real valuable 'cause it must be real old and it's brown all over and my Aunt said I can have it. Who made it, when did they make it, what ***** is it, what are the internal barrel measurements, who held the patents that made it a White Powder Wonder and if I sell it can I send my kid to Harvard? Boy, you guys are great!

to answer your questions there Oingo Boingo.

they did

way back then

the one that fits

usually in thousands of an inch

the guy at the patent office held the patents until he filed them

Isn't that a Yankee School?

I have to agree with marlands but i need to point out that where he states that :

the one that fits

that should be specified as the one that fits "precisely"

A smaller gauge shell will still fit in a larger gauze gun. The opposite is not true unless you hammer the gauge measuring device in, but that will affect the chamber or the choke of the gun.

I hope this clarifies the statement a bit.
Thank you for your attention.
As it is obvious I am ever so clever!!!

Bye to all for now.

Are you guys poking fun at the newbs?

Welcome to the Friendliest Shooting Forum on the Net!

Maybe we should substitute "funniest" for the other F-word.

It wasn't me ,honest, it was 'Lonzo , HE'S the bad influence. And DKS ain't much help either.

Besides we weren't pokin' fun at newbies, it was at the folks who think we here have crystal balls ("that's a joke son" - Foghorn Leghon).

I was teasing Marland a little about some of the questions he'll be asked and at the same time illustrating the type of question I will not respond to. If you want to see a whole board full of this stuff, try www.antiqueguns.com It'd drive me crazy!

Yankees? Whure's my gun!!
