I had a close friend who once bought a flintlock pistol from a kid in Charleston, S.C. who was "using" it in a game of cowboys and Indians with his friends, who all had cap pistols. My friend asked the kid wouldn't he like to have a cap pistol like his friends, to which the kid replied that, yes, he would, but a cap pistol and a roll of caps cost fifty cents. My friend was happy to give the kid enough to buy himself a cap pistol and several rolls of caps. Both parties went away happy.

Bargains are where you find them.


May God bless America and those who defend her.
