HAHAHA, iSheath and the sheath from Trojan made me blow a snot bubble. Thanks for touching on the lighter side

One of favorite days of the year! Thanks Doug!

ROTFLMAO! Best issue ever! Can't wait for the opening of our local Doug Store.

You're welcome all, but a major part of the credit goes to Clifford. I couldn't do this without him.

Yes i will admit it was quite amusing.
actually some of the ideas seemed quite interesting.

Thanks for the laughs Clifford!

I actually like the first idea and think it could be successful.

Thanks for the laughs; it started my day right-

BRAVO, BRAVO!!

Will the RSP MK.22 .22 Magnum be available in Titanium Grade 5 (i.e. Frame and Cylinder with a Chrome steel and Carbon barrel and Carbon pistol grip) This would get the RSP Mk.22 down to less than around 3oz in weight for a powerful 5 shot .22 Magnum revolver. The RSK Mk5 bayonet would probably make the package illegal though. Laser and tritium peep sights of course would be needed as after market tacticool purchases. It might not just fit into a Altoids tin but would fit into a BCB survival tin. This would certainly be a competitor to the NAA Revolver range especially if after market longer barrels where available for improved accuracy for a compact survival weapon.

HaHaHa! You had me going till halfway through the iSheath article. (I'm a little slow today)
Thanks for the treat!

LOL @ BigToe, but in a sympathetic way. I did the same thing when i read my first one.

Very funny! I don't see how you can beat this one, come next March 32nd.

Glad everyone liked this year's edition. As always, it was a lot of fun to write, and thanks, Doug, for letting me help.

Susan, we will top it next year. I love a challenge.

(like, who else?)

I skimmed through the article till I saw the RSP Mk.22. I'm not a gun person but the RSP seemed promising and quite interesting. I was actually looking forward to seeing it come out. . . . Then I saw the picture.

To paraphrase Foghorn Leghorn, "[I] have been flimflammed."

Slight Hijack.

JeanetteIsabelle, could you find your old thread on the game you were going to be involved in and provide an update? It was interesting to start, interested in how it played out.

Sorry for the slight hijack, please continue.

Unfortunately the game master has not advanced the game since the end of Day 1 and the players cannot do anything until the game master moves to Day 2.

Edit: Here is a link to that thread: http://forums.equipped.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=217169&page=1
