yeah...use that line all the time Harold? The wood on the hybrid might be all the wood you get... :t
You lose dakine gun and all you'll have are chopsticks brah! 'Course that would mean that Rig and I would be the only West Coast representatives sportin not only the tools, but the tools!!
By the way, I just finished my latest titanium pipe gun, a 43" piece of hand rubbed love. So I just loaded that bad thang up with some fresh 9/16 bands, put the tip to the floor and went to unload it. Bad mistake.
It lifted me off the floor, put the Riffe butt through the ceiling drywall, put my knuckle print next to the hole, and took a brand new 9/32 Riffe shaft and put a 90 into it. :blackeye
Yep, I'm ready!! :crutch

Good to hear there's someone else out there who jumps first and looks later. I thought I was a dying breed
.
Any more submissions to the "Darwin Awards"?
When I was 8 years old, I thought I could make my own shotgun by taping a 12-gauge shell to the end of the barrel on my BB-gun......didn't work :blackeye.
Edit - I'm not advocating that being a moron is fashionable....just that we all have done stupid things before. We learn from our "mistakes"

Chopsticks?
I've got some good wood left Those are just the guns I've picked up in the last few months minus my 55 hybrid waiting for me back in Hawaii. 
Sven, a friend of mine knocked himself out trying to get a tako(octopus) out of a hole in Kaneohe(Oahu, Hawaii). He was using the point of his riffe to coax the tako out of the hole & mistakenly discharged it with the point about an inch from the bottom - butt of the gun uppercut him under the chin & he was very very fortunately saved by his buddy. Be careful there, I can only imagine how much worse it is out of water
Basically what I told Murat is that one of the main selling points of a Wong is his lifetime warranty & while this is great for those of us in the US, it's unfortunate for outside countries that have to pay a small fortune if something needs to be repaired. For outside countries, RIFFE is probably the way to go simply because replacement parts(while expensive) may be more easily obtained.

Hey Murat -not sure what kind of riffe dealers you have in your local -but here (in Saudi) Al-Korayf just started stocking riffe's. price's are about the same as stateside - but taxfree. not to far from cyprus....
