                Yes, and it is so sad that Rock-Ola did not get to make any of the M2 carbines. Just imagine, had they done so, all of the &quot;Yay, Rock&apos;n Roll!&quot; and &quot;Dance, mother@#$ker!&quot; jokes we could have had!

                <![CDATA[Yet Neffi explored that possibility, didn't he?&nbsp; I wasn't expecting anyone to get the exact company, and was pleasantly surprised to see someone essentially made the type of connection, if in reverse - in Neffi's case, an arms company making toys, vice a toy company making arms.&nbsp; Close enough for me, given what you had to work with.<br />
<br />
And y'all did well reasoning things out, and Neffi probably benefited from that, too.&nbsp; A collaborative effort - showing one of the things blogs do well,&nbsp;facilitating interactive&nbsp;information exchange.]]>
