Some New York Treasure

Post by MrDrummy »

I came across this in a subway station when I was in New York this past week, and I picked it up, because I knew that y'all would like to see it as well. I found the cover a bit humorous, as I'm sure many of you will. :lol:

For those of you interested, here's the corresponding article.

I'm more interested in how Mel Gibson is responsible for Iraq :shock:

I do love the rifle rounds magically passing into an obviously altered Glock and coming out as .40 S&W shells.

Isn't it obvious why the officers are shooting so much? They are trying to get rid of the old ammo that they haven't been able to use for years since nobody in New York has guns.

That's a spin on Gibson's drunken rant from a few months back: that "Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world."

Oh, and Happy Channuka, everone! :grin:

WOW, I believe that is the coveted .308 Glock. It feeds into a port that is not on the left side of any other Glock. I wonder if they know about this over at Glock Talk!?

Oh trust me, I knew the reasoning, but that title is just absurd. (Of course so was Gibson's blather)

Man, think of the recoil on that pistol... :lol:

No one who knows guns would take that magazine seriously, based on that photo(shop).

Hey, TXI believes in Santa Claus, and you can't handle the magic of a full auto ammo transforming Glock?

You disappoint me. Just believe.

It all makes perfect sense to me.

A fully auto, belt fed, .308 Glock (recoilless no less)....reforms the spent .308 into usable .40 casings so LEO can reload them and shoot more!

Only in New York. :sad:


A friend of mine at work just won a 3 day all expense paid trip to that city.

He said the second place winner got 7 days. ;-)
