[Swiftwater Gazette] Who wants to be a democrat

I "think" about spending that kind of money a LOT more than I actually do it
:)
I had already read that review. Probably won't ever actually get the gun,
but if I do, I still think the alternating .410 .45 load would work for me.
I don't particularly want to kill anyone, and if a .410 gets their attention
(I think it would), that would be good enough for me. If it didn't, I think
even after all these years, I'd be pretty quick on a second pull of the
trigger.
