What??? Please post info & reference on this. I'm a gun collector, get about
all the gun magazines there are, and have NEVER seen any reference to such
a sale. Since the Gun Control Axct of '68, it is practically impossible
to get the US Gov't to sell guns or ammo to private citizens, except for
a mere trickle that comes through the Board for the Promotion of Rifle
Practice to gun club members.
