Overheard in LGS (episode 424): # of factory mags

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

Did I ever tell you guys and gals about the guy I used to buy all my guns and ammo from?
He went by the street name Tee Rex.










He was a small arms dealer.

To be fair I am trying to think of new guns that ship with only one magazine that I would feel comfortable recommending. KelTec, HiPoint, Ruger LCP, Kimber. Nope all about the same.

My Kahr CM9 ships with only one magazine. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends or family.

How does the local gun shop sometimes keeping a mag or two play into the theory?

Are some shops still pulling that crap?

That was way too common in the mid 1990s when mags cost a lot of money.

The legend just lives on probably.

Only one I witnessed myself was Poffs back in 1994 during the Clinton era. I was looking at a S&W 4006 and it only had one mag but there was a ton of other mags in sandwich bags and sharpie writing for $$$$. Nothing sketchy there

I didn't buy it told them why I wasn't buying it and then I called S&W

As a follow up, they send the thin bike locks with guns because they know the strong correlation of gun owners and people who ride small bicycles.

The less lethal option they include also doubles as a lock? Huh, who knew.

Poffs! The world is better off without that place in business.

Question for Rhino. Is it true you can tell how sharp a knife is from the factory by how many bandages come with it?
