Jasper (his friends called him Jaz) had been a lifelong hunter and target shooter and had quite a collection of firearms.  Like many collectors, a number of his weapons were military surplus, even though he was not in the military or even some local militia.  With all the talk of stricter gun regulations, he wondered if he was going to have problems getting ammo for some of his favorites . . . . .  David, Sf.G.
