This was Klein's ad that Oswald bought his Carcano from.
Check it out, a Garand for $79.95!

Yeah, inflation.
Average salary was what, $2500-3500 a year back then? $80 was a lot harder to come up with when you only bring home $55-60 a week.
So the M44's that are $39-40 now are what in 1965 dollars?
Not bad at all.
Many deals are actually better now. Despite a lot of the bullshit laws and bans, in some ways the grass is greener over here now.

1. Yea but the real point is that you notice that there is no background check, three day waiting period or 30 day gun of the month game that we play now.
2. Damn the good old days.

not to mention you could have the gun shipped by USPS right to your front door without going through a FFL.

Stop it, or I'm going to vomit. ;puke:
Just like the pre-May days... Number 6 has his cash and thinks, "hey, I should buy a machinegun or two!" Then, for some reason or another he decides that there will always be machineguns for him to buy. What a maroon! :square:
Now, I'm probably going to be paying about $5000 for an NFA weapon. :eek:
Be seeing you.
