Chainsaw, "They kill schools?"

Guess I'm not in on the inside joke. "Splain it to vme, ploeez!

Pete, in the past I bought linotype from a local newspaper. But they converted to offset presses a long time ago. I haven't seen it anywhere except except metals dealers for many years. Too bad, really. It was great for rifle bullets. Bet I've fired 5 to 6 thousand 170 grain linotype bullets from my .30-30s, .303 Savage, and .30-40 Krag.
