Alpo Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Another board. A guy starts a thread. Has anybody bought one of those Beretta 84 police trade-ins on that big gun and parts site in South Carolina? So I did a search on a gun site in South Carolina, and I come up with classic arms. And they had those Beretta 84s, but they're sold out. Then just a little bit ago I get a email from palmetto, and my brain clicked. Palmetto - that's the state tree of South Carolina isn't it? And I go to their website, and hey, how about that. They've got the Berettas. And I just wonder how difficult it would have been for the guy's question to have been - has anyone bought one of those Beretta 84s from palmetto? People are weird. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I never know if they’re being cryptic, elusive, manipulative or stupid. When I see a post like that I just move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Just a couple wild guesses, (1) He didn't want to flood the seller with orders and have them run out before he got his answer, (2) He might have thought that it was against forum rules to mention them by name.

watab kid Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 maybe he just wanted to discus what you got to compare with what he git ? it doesnt sound like a sales pitch to me but i guess one might read it that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted May 22 Author Share Posted May 22 I didn't think it was a sales pitch. But let's go back in time 30 or 40 years, to whenever it was they brought it out. "Hey, has anyone tried that new barbecued rib sandwich that a certain hamburger restaurant is selling?" Wouldn't it make more sense to say, "Hey, has anyone tried that new barbecued rib sandwich that McDonald's came out with?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
