Come On Christmas Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Do the Merchantile ever have the coffee mug what has a bullet hole clear through it?The Womanizer what is Shameless
MARSHAL W.E. BGood SASS 18429 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I can tell you from personal experience...they look cool, but the coffee cools-down REALLY fast in them, so they're just for looks as far as I'm concerned.
Rev Willy Dunkum, SASS # 61027 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 They do look pretty cool up on the shelf of the gun room even if not very practical. I rank it up there with the 1/2 cup of coffee cup or quart cup. I wish I'd thought of it!
Come On Christmas Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 I broke mine. I use it when I jest want my coffee black. I am a certified teacher in an school age after school program. The kids would like to see it I am sure.
Cat Brules Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Just a cautionary message: Kids might think it's cool. Politically-driven, brown-nosing, frothing-at-the-mouth, socialist school administrators may not. Personally, I always was very careful to keep my personal business, politics, likes and dislikes, etc., private and separate from my work. That, of course, is different from properly speaking your mind, contributing and interacting strongly in your work-related environment. My advice, for what it's worth, is that if you rely on any income received from that work effort (a job), you may consider it wise to keep your gun hobby off the radar at work But, "A man oughtta do what he thinks is best."
Utah Bob #35998 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 The printed bullet holes, while not as cool looking, are more practical. They hold more and the coffee will stay hot longer. http://www.cafepress.com/+bullet-holes+mugs

Your prolly right. But I like the mug what the hey? What you wrote is why when I do military dress up I am a Union Artilleryman :~>=

Hawknose Bill Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 I can make mugs like that. I do similar things all the time. I do hunting and shooting motif mugs in my classroom ( I'm a high school Ceramics teacher) all the time. As a matter of fact, my mug on my desk right now is covered with a faux cartridge belt, full of faux bullets - and a Ruger logo on the side. I carry in in conferences, meetings with administrators, and even when I'm around my flaming liberal co-workers. They know it's just part of me. My students ape what I do, so several similar types of pottery have left my room and headed to homes, with nary a thing ever said about it. I embrace the hunting and shooting lifestyle. Everyone in my rural community knows that. They know that I'm a responsible individual and not a "weirdo." Such is the beauty of small-town country life... If you want a mug with bullet holes in it, and you can't find anything commercially, I can do one for $15.00. And it'll look a darn sight better than the one on eBay!
