Do you know what would be awesome?

If one of those insane micro-artists that engraves the Kremlin on a rice grain or paints The Last Supper on a pinhead would etch a little slumped over Spock clawing at the inside of a tritium vial in some night sights.

That would be awesome.

The juxtaposition of thread title and author seems an impossibility to me. It's like Einstein declaring one discrete statement as the "best idea I ever had."

I've never called out D&D references at gun school. I'm just sayin'. :p

(Although, in fairness, I got them when they were called out, so there's that... :o )

Sheer genius.


Of course, the weapon's serial number must be #Kh44444444444n

Gah. I spent 30 minutes, while watching the latest movie, begging and pleading that they not do this scene in reverse. Of course they did and now I make a sour face every time I think of it. Still, I'd totally buy those sights.

That's even funnier.

I would totally outbid you on Gunbroker, even if I had to sell a lung to do it.

I'm tempted to see if one of the AR or AK manufacturers would do a receiver with that custom serial #, and have someone engrave The Shat's face on it.

I would call her Vera.

Safety has to be marked Safe-Tribble-GORN!, and date of manufacture in star date format.

In which ST universe were "Tribble" & "safe" not synonymous? Now I can see Tribble-Klingon-Gorn.

That is better. I bow to your superior Star Trek knowledge. Nerd ;)

There's a good joke here somewhere about optics, lights, lasers, and the Borg but I just can't find it.

With The Shat's face engraved, it'd have to be TOS.

I know right?!

I'm serious about doing a one day freebie gunschool just for Tam and friends so I can invigorate my mind with all of the wit, wisdom, and useless sci-fi trivia she wields so powerfully among the internets.

Maybe in the spring..........TC, you can come too, though I'll probably propose to do it closer to the greater BR metropolitan area than NOVA.
