Bobby!!! Can you read or what????? This gun was "Hand Crafted" one of a kind. There is no way possible that this fine gun can be reproduced.

But wait! We could create one like it, but there is a down payment (about $3.00) and a finial payment of $3.00 more when the gun is ready. Wait times vary from 2 hours to 4 hours (depending on what's on TV).

Let me know if your interested.

Stay well my friend!

I understand your good intentions but frankly this isn't my cup of tea, not only to be at one like it but also to see pictures on the world wide web. This looks to be a very small shoot and is being billed as bigger than it was. Use of the old commode while surely intended in levity just tells viewers that shooters and shooting are crude. We as a shooting fratenity can't afford that in todays world. If I did a bell curve of vintage type shoots I would put the very formal and proper Vintagers shoot at one end of curve and this one at opposite end. I hope you consider my reply and make adjustments next year if you do it again and then post about it.

I sure hope this is deadpan humor with tongue deep deep deeply in cheek. Otherwise, there's no hope for the humorless.

Old Joe, you folks in the northern u.s. really know how to spin a yarn, what a hoot smile
Thanks for the humor, he he he

As for Greg, thanks for the pictures of this classy all encompassing shoot and the wonderful posting of the fine prize arm.

Mike

p.s. I agree with Old Joe, and a rattlesnake moulded into the potty lid would be an upgrade
and would eliminate the crude aspect!

Agree completely Jay, but you have to admit, the participants would look a bit more proper if they were wearing a Bowler or Top Hat as they sat on the crapper!

The only thing missing from the bespoke Botio is an "old Ed Lander" acetylene torch color job.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion and that's fine with us. By the same token us North Dakotans are entitled to ours and to be perfectly honest, you couldn't drag me to one of your "black tie and champagne" events with a team of Fort Rucker mules. I may be 58 years old but I'm certainly not an "Old Shmoe". Here, have a Kleenex, I notice a bead of sweat developing on your stiff upper lip grin

My bet would be that OldJoe is a trapshooter. They just don't understand crapshooters. Prolly hates The Robertson clan, too.

Must be, statistics aren't taught there in ND for if they did you'd know both ends of bell curve distribution are extremes. High end, low end. Most people align with things in the middle.

This hubris dolt has lost contact with reality and wishes to impose his shooting protocol on others. He thinks that an informal shoot among friends at someones private residence should conform to his formal & proper standards.

This shoot was not "billed", as you say, as anything more than it was....fun among friends and your opinion is a mute point...whatever "part of the North" you live in people must squeak when they walk if they're like you, and are they all as rude as you.....?

Sounds like fun to me, now throw in some Prarie Dog blasting and I'll pack my bags. I'll have to talk to the powers that be for one of out local shoots and lobby for the "toilet bowl" station vs the duck boat we currently use.
