Its an old joke ....." he looked like he'd been rode hard and put away wet " ....as in a horse that had been rode hard and put away wet ...and neglected....
I know I'm getting old, when even my humor is tired ....
I only meant - they abuse the loaders / try to sell them without even cleaning them up. At my local gun show last week ....there were so many used guns, loaders, etc - that were greasy, filthy dirty, and beat up ....and the owner didn't even care enough to clean them up before he brings them in to try and sell em....its always amazing to me ....
Personally, if something is dirty ....I will pass on it ....
No, noone would ...hopefully ....ever get their loaders wet ....
