Default I LOOKING for M60

Hahahaha! Can you believe this guy? He is looking for an M60 or M249!

http://phoenix.backpage.com/SportsEq...Ad?oid=2583697

First off, since he can't even make a proper sentence, I doubt he is allowed or can afford a real M60 or M249. A registerable M60 would cost a boatload in the USA!

Nice hotmail address.

An apostrophe on "thank's"?
I wonder why he even bothered?

It's like some pitiful and misguided aspiration to punctuate amongst all the omissions.

I think it's a fake, and a rather tasteless one if it's playing on what I think it's playing on :hmm:

Nowt wrong with that, it's overused a great deal, but in that sentence is fine.

Since ive seen 50 caliber sniper rifles for sale on the internet, my knee jerk reaction is.. "well schitt, why the hell not, can buy just about everything else on the internet, why not this too."

Machine guns such as the M-60 and the SAW are considered type III destructive devices and require a special federal license.

Depending on the state, there is probably nothing to prevent a citizen from owning a M-60 but it would be expensive!!!

Asking for an automatic LMG/MMG on the Internet. Don't we have a Homeland Security department now?

Sound more like a fishing expedition to me, perhaps by that very same agency. Anyone who seriously answered that ad would definitely be someone they'd want to get to know better...

"I got M60, I got M249, all you want, you come my house now"

"Yeah buddy we'll be right over"
