They also found a 3,000 year old "centerfold" hanging on the wall.

Probably the market will soon be flooded with 3,000 year old
Aks “discovered in a mud Temple in Egypt” for only 400 dollars each. Go for the hand pick, it’s worth it.
Arsenal refinished in the time of Tutmose, these beauties
have been sleeping under the Egyptian sands waiting for YOU.
Comes with two mags, sling, and reed carrying case.
Get the Papyrus wall poster showing disassembly for only
Five dollars more...

Time for you to quit reading the Century Arms flier.

Or IMA.
I love Century and IMA. I bought from both of them. The dealers around here buy their stuff and mark it up 200%.

Egyptian archaeologists have discovered what they say was the ancient headquarters of the Pharaonic army guarding the northeastern borders of Egypt for more than 1,500 years, the government said on Wednesday. The fortress and adjoining town, which they identify with the ancient place name Tharu, lies in the Sinai peninsula about 3 km (2 miles) northeast of the modern town of Qantara... SOURCE

Do you know why ancient Egyptian collapsed?
Government work programs and over taxation.

Excellent Photo! I wonder what the script says?
It looks like Horus is receiving an offering of some sort.

My subscription to Shotgun News gets read first thing.
Does that make me an extremist?
What about the Constitution? Is that too extreme?
We are facing a turbulent future.
Are we Prepared?

My comment was a joke.
I’m a gunsmith and custom gun builder. If you are an extremist I’d hate to hear what they think of me!

Spears are not the answer.
To: forkinsocket
So these would be bronze arms then? I imagine they were strong arms too. I don’t think skinny, freckled, girly arms would have been much in demand.
Maybe they also keep a batch of flabby arms too. Spares for the eunuchs, don’t you know.

Do either of you know if this “Way of Horus” is AKA either “the Way of the Philistines” or the “Way of Shur” on Biblical maps?

Spears are not the answerBritney and Jamie Lynn are never the answer; they're part of the probem.
Not the sharpest weapons in the armory, either.
