Do ya Put on Clean Underwear Before ya go to the Doctor? Read on!

[Wildalaska]

Listen, my mom taught me that when I was a kid...you got a Drs appointment, ya change your shorts...hell I learned to change my shorts before I got on an airplane to avoid the oft chance the plane would crash and the only part left of me would be my lower parts with l;ike my wallet to ID me and a skidmarked skivvie, so like when they call Mrs. WA they say "O we are sorry yer husband bought it in the plane crash, but hell lady COULD YA AT LEAST MAKE HIM CHANGE HIOS UNDIES"

And its the same thing in the gun biz..today a well known Board member walks into the shop to get a new recoil spring on his Kimber, wont ID him, but this gun is just...like it came out of a dumpster, I got powder fouling on my brain from just lookin at it, so I says hey Spiff, could ya clean yer gun before ya bring it in, he mumbles something about that a dirty gun looks more tactical..

I mean this thing was so dirty I couldnt use a bushing wrench on it, we had to take it into the back and use a torch and a pipe wrench. My hands still aint clean...

So how many of you guys are COURTEOUS ENOUGH to clean your gun before ya go to thew gunsmith..

I eat Oreos before I go to the dentist, don't ask me.

 

[Greg L]

If I was on a plane that was crashing I don't think that my undies would remain sparkling white (not that they ever were except for when I unwrapped them, but I digress ).

Did he buy ammo too? If he did then he could claim that it was dirty because he was fighting off mutant ninja zombie grizzlies on the way to the shop. If he didn't then it was poor planning on his part .

 

[Wildalaska]

Actually I dont think he could have even shot the thing, it was so carbon siezed and his recoil spring? My god talk about limp it was like Smilin Bob before he took Enzyte.....

But hes my friend so I gave him a cleaning brush...

recoil spring change = time to detail strip and clean.

I dont make sure they're spotless before I drop them off, but I at least wipe them down.

 

[PATH]

Actually, according to my ER nurse wife, no one really takes a long look at your under wear! If you are in a bad way they remove everything in the way of clothes! Unless you are wearing something really out of the ordinary you are not going to be remembered for your underwear!

Oh yeah, I brush before I go to the dentist and I do clean my firearms before I go to the gunsmith.

 

[Josey]

I eat garlic before I go to the dentist. I wore a red union suit to the doctor. If the firearm was working, I would clean it. If I buy a POJ, I will pay a sooty carbon brain to fix it.

 

[Delmar]

Depending on what the gunsmith is tryin to get away with, I might consider wiping my weapon down with my underwear

 

[Hal]

Ugh!

Last visit I had to the dentist, he had a booger in his snout

It was one of those little white bungie cord ones that dangeled in and out as he breathed.

Man was I relieved when he put his mask on before he started working on me.

Clean Guns

I clean my guns every time I shoot em. Soon as I get home. I talk to em too. Thank 'em for their help, praise em on a job well done, that sort of thing. ... Doesn't everyone?

 

[azrael]

torch and pipe wrench?? WOW!!! From now on just slip some rubber gloves on when you see him come in the door...

One good thing though...At least he was defiling a Kimber and not a Seecamp!!

 

[Wildalaska]

I never put on rubber gloves in front of certain gun owners, tends to get em excited

Boy if I keep this one up a ceratin fella is gonna evwen want more range time with the Commando

 

[P95Carry]

Overall I'd present a clean gun .... but rather depends on who you are dealing with! There are some FFL's, smiths even too maybe, who seem to thrive on dirty guns. I guess tho my natural inclination is to present something at least half ways clean!

It was one of those little white bungie cord ones that dangeled in and out as he breathed.

Hal ...... ROTFLMAO! Seen one of them myself!

Wild:

If it were my shop, I'd just clean the gun (charging hourly) - probably would fix a lot of the customer's "problems", and could be a source of recurring revenue for me.

 

[azrael]

problem with that Sven is Alaskas gun laws..

and I quote

A.<All weapons (pistols, rifles, slingshots et all) MUST BE SOILED at all time when confronted by Ninja Cannibal Polar Bears...>

B.<If at the time of the supposed event a persons weapon was deemed "to clean" by LEO or Game Warden, THEN the person could face up to 6 months in jail and or a $5,000.00 fine or BOTH!!

See? if he had a clean weapon and on the off chance that he was confronted by one of those elusive creatures, he would have had to hold fire, and if he had fired then he would have been in violation of Alaskan GS.454 a, b,


I have entirely to much time on my hands today

 

[hansolo]

LMAO....thanks; cola on keyboard.

....bungie cord boogers in dentist's nose.....

...........wipe down gun with dirty underwear...........

..........had to clean with a blow torch.........

........after plane crash, you may have to be I.D.'d by skidmarked undies........

I should get outdoors and breath some air....funniest thread I've read since the guy who buried his Hi-Point in the Arizona desert. Thanks for the laughs.

 

[Justin]

Hal-

Next time that happens, just use the following turn of phrase:

"Hey, bro, you've got a bat hangin' in the cave."

 

[wingman]

Actually I think a "large number" folks don't bath any more (go in my walmart any sat. and check it out) so i guess a dirty gun don't count for much.

Any hoo my guns are always clean.

 

[spacemanspiff]

yeah well at least i shoot the dang gun!

for every one of me thats out amongst you, theres a dozen that are carrying guns that havent even had their packing grease cleaned out, much less even fired.

and speaking of dirty underwear and people with 'no sense of shame', who in their right mind walks to the middle of an open area to drop trou and retuck in a shirt, letting the mailmen and whomever else see their naughty bits? i dunno if its a gunstore i'm at, or a peep show. in any case, i still had plenty of dollar bills left over from the GABC the previous night.

and when most sane people touch something dirty, dont they usually wash up right away? not so with WA, he kept smelling his carbon-tainted fingers and saying 'mmmmmmm THATS the stuff!'

but to further address this thread, my mom didnt teach me much about how to prepare for the doctor/dentist/mechanic/whathaveyou... the way i see it, if my underwear is a bit rank, the doc wont be too inclined to waste time during the physical.

 

[Zach S]

If you are in a bad way they remove everything in the way of clothes!

Which reminds me, its always cold in ERs...

Clean the guns well before they go for a visit.

Pay cash.

This makes a happy Smith who will do an overnight trigger job, rework a S&W's guts, and turn Springfield manufacturing slop into a smooth as silk, almost erotic to shoot jewel, all for reasonable $$$.

Oops! I just forgot the guy's name and can't find his number anywhere. Sorry folks, guess I can't share the good fortune.

Yup. They just sort of cut your clothes right off. I was in a pretty bad car wreck when I was in High School. I was wearing a a pair of jeans at the time that I had sliced up and frayed throughout (it was an 80's thing). My mother almsot had a heart attack when an ER nurse gave my clothes to my mother before she got to see me.

Clean guns when taking them to a smith -yup.
I also clean my vehicle out a bit if I have to take it to the shop also.
Can't always be as neat as a pin, but I do have some pride.

 

[Triad]

Bill Cosby once said that putting on clean underwear to avoid having doctors or morgue attendants see your skidmarks was pointless. His reasoning was that if you're crossing the street and you see a truck about to run you down, first you say it, then you do it.

Something like this...

HONK! HONK! Oh s...! SPLAT. CRUNCH.




I've never had to take any of my guns to a smith, but I woud clean them first.
