I have very little experience with Browning salt guns, but recently bought a mint looking 1968 12 gauge 28" modified and full round knob Super at an internet auction. The price was such that I didn't care whether it was a salt gun or not. There was a thin line of missing blue on one side of the action against the stock, about an inch long and as wide as a line made with a ball point pen. On removing the stock, I found that the inside of the action was unblemished, no sign of rust at all. The gun may have been a salt gun, but no evidence of it. I am not a fan of short tang Supers, but couldn't pass this one up.

Jimmy, an old man, is eavesdropping and stalking on virile young men in a gun store then approaches them in the parking lot to talk about removing salt from their wood.

Does anyone think there is something off about this behavior?

There's something off about all his behavior, and this thread. I'd be willing to bet this "event" never even happened. He's just trolling everybody. He's playing his "naive, innocent nice guy" routine, just wondering what everyone else would do, when he's really just trying to stir up s--t. Which is what he does.

Look at his next to last reply, before it disappears. Gee, thanks everyone, blah, blah, blah. And then he throws another baited hook out, "the people on his ignore list", trying to draw them in and stir things up further.

He seems to delete or edit a lot of posts, that should tell you something about what he's doing right there.

I agree completely Tim, really unbalanced behavior, and a serious case of Trump Derangement Syndrome too. Jimmy W still claims to IGNORE my posts, but keeps sending me PM's, which I have never responded to or even bothered to open. The most recent I received was on 7/9/24, only a couple days after he proudly announced again that I am on his long IGNORE list. I made a reply to this Thread yesterday, which hasn't been posted yet, knowing Jimmy would read it. The IGNORE function here has been like an online I.Q. Test for our Libtards, and the vast majority score right up there with garden vegetables.

He had a pretty long absence from this forum, but showed up back here in full force in the spring of 2023. It could be a coincidence, but that seems to be around the same time-frame that I saw a Liberal Left Troll with a similar posting style get booted from the Indiana Gun Owner's forum because of his incessant trolling and being a general complete idiot. That INGO forum Troll even used the same emoji's Jimmy uses here.

The Nutty Professor feels he is a wonderful asset here, so that should tell us all we need to know.

So, not even a "Man alive, that is a beautiful, high condition Mossberg!"?

!

Stan, a few months ago I bought my daughter a nice high condition Mossberg Pump shotgun as a house cleaning tool for unwanted miscreants. It even has a black synthetic stock, and despite being in perfect condition, it is less beautiful than a pit bulldog. It also has a worse bite than a pit bulldog. It doesn't eat as much as a pit bulldog, and unlike a pit bulldog, it will not mistake the mail-man or meter reader for a burglar or home invader. A pit bulldog has a menacing bark, but I think the distinct sound a pump shotgun makes when racking a shell into the chamber is even more likely to make an intruder piss their pants and run for the hills.

That's something our doubles aren't quite so good at.

I have my short barreled pump too, Keith. Mine is a Winchester SXP. Not pretty as a Fox or Parker, but to use your bulldog analogy, it barks here and bites out yonder. It was recommended to me by an ex-special forces military contractor/instructor who taught soldiers in close quarter combat in the Middle East for many years.

Truth is my statement wasn't meant to be about Mossbergs at all. I just used that name to make a point that I see nothing at all wrong with making a comment of praise to a young man who just purchased a gun, without him asking me for it. I don't think L. Brown meant that, either, but misspoke.
