[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1515902, member: 12995"] Maybe it's just the salesman in me (from back when I had to deal with this same type of stuff daily at the gun store), but I can't stand it when folks call the 6.5CM just a "6.5", as if there are no other 6.5mm cartridges out there, and we're supposed to know what they're talking about. Example... I used to get "urbanites" coming into the store all the time wanting ammo for their "tree-eight", "clack-clack", "nine", or "fo-five"... Back to the "tree-eight" pistol. Thinking the guy was too stupid to realize it's a .38 Special, I showed him .38 Spl. ammo. He told me it wasn't the right ammo. After a couple minutes, it hit me... That idiot wanted .380 ammo, but was too stupid to even know what ammo his [most-likely stolen] gun shot. I just told him we didn't have any, try WalMart. :cool: [/QUOTE]
