Title: Bazooka sale!!
Post by: 8683jb on August 18, 2018, 01:51:17 PM
I was recently cleaning out my gun room and came across some old magazines. The attached ad was in a 1962 issue of Shooting Times. I laughed out loud when I read the caption on the bazookas! You might have to zoom it a little to read it.

Cool you can't take any chances with mice. That SKS price is amusing.

Let's see.....Bazooka for $19.95 or an SKS for $250?   I think I'll take a dozen bazookas please. ;D

I wish I’d known about this in ’62 - as I recall, we were having a heck of a Mastodon problem on our place back then. A couple of bazookas would’ve thinned the critters out pretty good!
