What I've Got In The Back

[The Rabbi]

I often get customers who wonder what I'm keeping in the back of the shop. The kind of "good stuff" that only the best customers get to see and buy.

So in the spirit of democracy I am opening my back room to TGO so everyone can see what I keep back there.

No seriously. This was Charlton Heston's gun room. Nice, eh?

I've seen this picture before, but didn't know who the owner was. There was actually another picture that went along with it.

Nice collection.

[Guest bkelm18]

That's like an NFA wet dream.

[Guest c_o_jones]

That is an impressive collection, but it didn't belong to Moses...

It belonged to the late Bruce Stern, former director of the NRA.

The Auction of what the NRA didn't take for its museum brought somewhere over 14 million dollars.

[Guest c_o_jones]

Other view, shows the kickazz indoor range...

[Guest bkelm18]

That is sickeningly ridiculously awesome.

[Smith]

I can only imagine.

[bobmack]

hi,

well, i guess when you have money you can have that kind of collection too.

i'll never know.

unless i hit the 'big one'

[I_Like_Pie]

It has an indoor range too...inside the saferoom!

[memphismason]

I think I just wet myself!!!!!!

There are sovereign nations that have less powerful weapons.

I am in awe...

[Guest racr28]

Somtimes, I have to do the end of day count of our Infantry companies arms room. This beats that by a mile. Very cool collection.

[Guest c_o_jones]

Here's a few more pictures of some of Stern's more than 3000 gun collection before they get auctioned off.

I really must say - the man had more unobtanium than most of us could even dream about...

[Guest canynracer]

HOLY HELL

[Guest dwrd]

Do they offer guided tours, and provide aprons for the drool?

[Guest GLOCK.GUY]

NOW THAT'S A MAN CAVE!

[Mike.357]

I don't know why anyone would need all those guns

[Guest jwp]

Here is a question. How many of those guns were "collected" prior to the '86 ban and how many were "collected" after?

It sort of rubs me the wrong way if they were collected prior to the enactment of the legislation and yet the NRA sat idle as yet another group of our rights were taken away.

Remember that the next time they send you a mailer asking for more money!

Don't worry. I'm sure there are many others that will handle their overhead.

[Guest JavaGuy]

Remember that the next time they send you a mailer asking for more money!

Perhaps a swap is in order... you (or me or any other person) send them a $10, $20 or $50 donation, they send you (or me or any other person) one of those fine collectible firearms. Grin.. Surely that's more than fair.

i have gotten so much spam email and snail mail from the nra since i joined its like doubled my snail mail and tripled my email intake.

[Magiccarpetrides]

If I had a setup like that I would actually be pissed off if the Sh*T didnt hit the fan.

[Moped]

That's like an NFA wet dream.

That's MY wet dream too!!!
