figgy Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 You must have been making lots of money at the game dealers with bags that big. How many guns did you get through in a year. The old Toyotas were still the best ones, very well built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
