New guns that have "jumped the shark."

[Effingham]

Nope... I'm not an anime geek trying to relive some Mateba fetish.

Yet you know the terminology....

Your secret is safe with me. I "grew up" on Hokuto no Ken and Gundam.

And we feel the same about the Rhino. I think I need a shower.

Ya kinda get the feeling that the bonnie lass thinks it is a joke too? Likely making jokes to her friends about overcompensation and the sort.

I wonder if they hired an extra petite model to show off their product. Isn't that what they do in the porn industry?

Kel Tec is starting to:

I've held one of those at Whittakers and it actually felt pretty good to me.

You didn't think quickly enough...
Shoulda gone down like this:

Salesguy: "Make ya a deal on that"
IB: Great! How much ya gonna give me to take it of yer hands??"

No, I did think, that thought crossed my mind, but I was afraid he'd actually do that and I'd be forced to pay someone more to take it off my hands.

OT: Is the chainsaw legal in IN? Its a pistol with a front grip.
Or do you just pay for the NFA stamp?

Those rainbow Sigs are kind of ugly but they look worse in the pictures than in person. Now excuse me while I got get some ice for my head, hearing or reading "jumped the shark" does that to me every time. I bash myself with a hammer until I can imagine myself using the phrase before I allow myself to stop.

That's the same place i played with one, it wasn't bad, but it wouldn't be my first choice...

god forbid gun makers try something new...

Thats exactly what I was thinking! I bet a lot of the same naysayers complain about companies making the same thing.

Obviously some things are turds and the market rejects them. If you don't like it, don't buy it!

I don't know if this counts but this fas got to be worth a look

 

[Lucas156]

gears of war lol

 

[BumpShadow]

Ok, I've been looking into this gun, and now I want one. And don't feel dirty about it or anything. God bless innovation.

Oh, that's a firearm? Where can I get an inside-the-waistband holster for it?

One of the guys that worked their was going on and on about how great it was. I think he was little though.

Really? Gunsite did a comparate study (vs. the AK47) of the underlever 25 years ago.

Uncle Jeff called the Winchester 94 in .30-30 the "Gunsite Police Rifle".

Thunder Ranch has had classes dedicated to lever guns. In fact someone here on INGO (someone I may know *whistles*) has taken Urban Rifle classes with underlevers.

I think a Urban Rifle class would be pretty cool with a Lever gun, this is just the first I have ever seen of one with a collapsable stock and tri rail. It'd be fun to try it out, but it wouldnt be my first, second, or probly even third choice for tactical applications.

I know this is sacrilege but after feeling how one of those pointed when I was in Dayton, I kinda want one.

I want one for the novelty of it

My wife would be inconsolable if she saw that her beloved Rainbow Titanium Sig P238 was on the list. Just showing her Sig to friends and family has sold more Sigs than you might think. People, especially women, just seem to go ga-ga over it.

Haha, I was reading this thread last night when my fiance peeked over my shoulder as I was scrolling through your post. As soon as the sig/leek combo came up, she pointed down saying, "Oh, I like those two!"
I thought I was going to be able to get away with getting her a P22, but thanks a lot. Now I have to reevaluate my budget.
