ok... a person has a business and they advertise it. WOW! that's pretty exciting, especially coming from a blog.
Here's some news. The word blog comes from weblog, which is a journal or diary, like little 8 year old girls keep. Who cares?

I love irony and poetic justice - Barrack is going to sell a helluva lot of Henry repeaters!

I liked the posters quote:
"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!" Ha ha
The guy is taking a risk in alienating all the people that voted for Obama. But, I suspect, most of those people aren't in the market for a Henry.

You?

Where does the gun/bible connection come from? That always seemed odd to me.

I bought my son a Henry. It was a nice rifle. Seems I made a good choice.
