A local ad states the buyer is looking for a mossin nugget rifle. Does anyone happen to have one? I never heard of one of those. :D

The second "s" could be a typo, the nugget means he thinks they are very precious.............nothing wrong with that thinking. :vcool:

However, I would not plan to ever sell him one, he might not be able to spell "Ishevsk". :chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles:

Haha, oh wow. Sounds like this fellow could be a bit of a bubba to me, but you shouldn't assume these things :P

Yeah I get that around here often too! I stay away from trading them anything because I quickly suspect what they might have in mind. I just jump the deal up a bit. Bill :wink:

I think the ultimate Mosin "nickname" is "Moist Nugget" which sounds particularly unappealing. I enjoy my chicken nuggets as much as the next red blooded American but not if the crispy exterior is soggy. I esp don't like my Mosin "Nuggets" moist!

People mispronounce things from ignorance and it particularly hard to repectfully try and correct them but it is worth a try at the least. Most times when you try they feel hurt or embarassed and can lash out at you. That is when you just either decide to continue trying or give up and walk away. Just keep in mind to argue with an idiot you have to sink to their level! Bill :o

Another good one up here in our neck of the woods Bill, is how people pronounce some things. Now how folks say Mosin, is up to them, but Nagant is a pretty easy word to say. Hell if I ever went to the show and they told me you had Nuggets Bill, I'd come over and make you share :lol:

Sort of on the same subject - Remmy, shotty, Winny, Mossy and so on. Carnaco or Caricano. :?

Well, don't be too critical of him, dg, because apparently, neither can you; it's "Izhevsk." :lol: :thumbsup: :brolleyes:

Sorry, couldn't resist. :redfaced:
