I'd be curious to see guns ads of today. I wonder if they've narrowed their target audience or kept that same multi-level approach.

narrowed their target audience

bwahahahahaha! er, um, ahem. >^P

That was a good shot at humor, Chris. More fun than a barrel of monkeys. Oh, dear, I seem to be trigger happy with my stock of gun puns. I thought I'd better fire them off before the other Chris gets here, or else he'd recoil in horror at the missed opportunity.

I am working on a bullet list for you Steve but you have already hit some bulls eyes. I usually shoot from the hip on this kind of stuff but my aim is blurred from celebrating the Steelers victory (otherwise I would be loaded for bear instead of just loaded). :-)

Shoot, from your title I thought this was going to be about exclamation points.

Hey, you can snipe deer! They said you couldn't snipe deer. Thats the best way!

>from your title I thought this was going to be about exclamation points.

Or maybe the interrorbang!? But I guess this is a case of shoot first and ask about question marks later?!

Bang-up job Si :-)

Using the thread title in a pun? You'll have to get a dishonorable discharge for that! I guess this'll just provide you with more ammo.

I thought this forum was populated by straight-shooters, but now I see I was off the mark... Seriously though, for the serious cokebottle enthusiast there's nothing compares with the rarely seen inverterrobang: ¡¿ (or, ¿¡)

As I rifle through this thread I find some of the replies disarming, others just make a hollow point, but there’s no magic bullet in (shell) cases like this.

Chris R, the article states most of the gun manufacuting is going out of the United States and hopefully most of the sales. I know I want to shoot a Bambi with an assault weapon, not. Mayor Bloomberg here is making an effort to curb guns of any type as a major part of his agenda for his final term.

As another classic typophile thread does the ‘rounds’ the dueling rebukes ar-mor-piercing than I can handle. I’m going off half-cocked before things turn really ugly, remember puns don't kill people, guns kill people.

Peace! Si

Si its time to change your emoticon. What is it about 11 days from pictures and catchers. Nick, that is funny

Good point Dan, I'll get working on that, although i don't have high-hopes for the Mariners this season - but the World Cup is just around the corner maybe time to dust off the old England .gif.

Si,
Keep this one until the ProBowl at least.

That's a fun article. The 50s and 60s were definitely a different time. But you guys have got stop the puns before I... Ooh, now I've almost done it!

(I'm feeling a little whipped. I'm going to lay prone for a while.)

Si go for the World Cup look. Its the only football that counts. Pitchers and Catchers in 7 days.

"I’m feeling a little whipped. I’m going to lay prone for a while."

I got a kick out of that one Joe.

But seriously - don't you like the typography in this image from the article?

I hate the Remington logo it looks like it was created in the dinning room one morning before work by the founders wife
