Listen TED,
Raimey merely made a suggestion, you could have quietly declined his offer, instead you chose to use it in order to take a cheap shot...
Why is a misspelled word a typo to Larry when you do it, and evidence of complete non validity when I do it?
Do you really think that from the American perspective that a sliding breech Darne Fils marked gun is not a Darne...because a few bourgeoise Darne collectors only accept guns made by the factory that his father started!
So what, in your lofty position, is a Darne Fils (marked) sliding breech gun?
I know...it a "cheap copy"... right?
Francisque manufactured and patented sliding breech guns for perhaps his whole life...his father was Regis Darne...and you actually think that you, the exhalted Theodore Schefelbein,
have the right or position to say that guns produced by Francisque Darne, and not Darnes at all...
try to get away with that kind of catywampus logic at a gun show and see how far it gets you...But what's the collective opinion of the American gun collectors worth anyway? You guys know more than everyone put together...Larry actually owned one once....you actually went to the library in France, once, and came up empty handed...I guess that makes you and Larry top dog Darne experts...
Raimey offered you an alternate solution, but you turned your nose up to G Gournet's forum...and... he was not only in posession of the information that you seek, he graciously posted it for you anyway.
In light of how LITTLE we all know, perhaps you could keep the snide comments to yourself...or pay the price...
And to Lowell, Ted's overly latent pen pal,
Did it ever occur to you that perhaps Jakearoo does NOT make racial hatred posts, or posts laden with sexual double ontondre, the way you so often do...the ones Ted seems to enjoy so much..."eh, Boss"
Did it occur to you that perhaps Jakearoo has never been the kind of person who gets banned from forums, the way you do?
Go back to the beginning of this thread...you will see...Raimey offered what turned out to be the exact reference source Ted was seeking...and Ted chose to get ugly about it...I chose to be defensive...Mr Gournet and Jakearoo chose to cap it off with grace...your position is cleary evident as well...
