Makes sense to me but then "they" couldn't charge more for "their" parts

I will trade you some silver bars for your bummer of a Bushy.

Sorry but no.
I'm using it anyway. I just got my Form 1 (Short Barrel Rifle) back on it. I filed on it some so my 9mm mag block fits fine now. It always worked fine with metal mags but PMAGs are still stiff, I still need to push them in and pull them out. I don't normally use PMAGs anyway.

Don't trade your silver.

Don't trade your silver.

I am going to sell some of it to help fund more bugout stuff. I started buy silver @ $4.50 an ounce. My liberal, economist, brother-in-law kept telling me at the time it was a very bad investment, because it does not pay dividends and would never be worth anything. Now he says that silver would be a bad investment because it costs to much. Man, I am glad I did not go to college and study economics.
