Talked with the owner and he had bid on a lot of lightly used Texas trooper shotguns. The butt of the stock was kind of "melted" due to being in the trunk for so long I guess. Easy fix. So I asked how much. $350 + tax. What a deal!! I love the sound of racking a pump!! How many lies will people believe before they realize their own idiocy?

They did a lot of routine boardings to do a quick once over and check paperwork. Boarding team was generally 1 officer and 3 enlisted. When assembled on the deck at first and meeting with the captain and a few of his officers , the USCG officer would give a secret sign to the one enlisted man holding a shotgun. The guy would rack the shotgun loudly while still pointed skyward. Huge psychological effect. Basically it said , We are the coast guard. We mean business. Comply. They would get full compliance instantly. The simple routine inspection would go very quickly with zero issues. NRA benefactor member
