Yeah. People ask why I didn't get the full-auto M-16 instead. The rifle
itself is only a few hundred more. It's the $2500 federal tax stamp that
goes along with it that kills the deal.

A friend just got a .50cal Black powder rifle. Don't know the make. I
have 2 black powder pistols; an 1861 Colt and a six-shot Derringer, both
restored original, both presents from my wife.
