    Gunfucious say: Man with hand in pocket feel Glocky all day.

  2. Will4Freedom   9 years ago

    Ya gotta forgive Bok for this one. He’s still hung over from New Years Eve. I expect better next week.

    1. Loki   9 years ago

      Prepare to be disappointed.

  3. WTF   9 years ago

    The fuck does Richard Nixon have to do with the ATF?

    NEEDZ MOAR LABELZ.

    *SLAP!*

    1. invisible furry hand   9 years ago

      *slap!*

      1. straffinrun   9 years ago

        *slap*

        1. Rich   9 years ago

          *slap!*

    2. Ted S.   9 years ago

      I thought it was Fred Thompson.

      1. Swiss Servator   9 years ago

        *moment of silence*

  4. Crusty Juggler   9 years ago

    Hey Bok, there is no need to sully Conrad Bain’s reputation.

  5. invisible furry hand   9 years ago

    Once again Bok draws gun-owner and bureaucrat alike as a paunchy middle-aged cis-man. Why oh why does Reason perpetuate this microaggression?

    1. sloopyinTEXAS   9 years ago

      Well, seeing as those are the people most likely to carry out a mass shooting according to the leftards, maybe Bok is onto something.

      Fucker is probably a Christian too.

      1. Mongo   9 years ago

        Bok is simply carrying the tradition of the salary man comics.

    2. HolgerDanske   9 years ago

      Given the reference, I assume both are supposed to be bureaucrats?

  6. sloopyinTEXAS   9 years ago

    Lol, as if a gun dealer permit is a single page.

    I assume the government bureaucrat is the head of the ATF since he has a Hillary-esque computer, and therefore email, setup.

    1. UnCivilServant   9 years ago

      That’s the application to request the form to request the full form, sloopy.

      1. sloopyinTEXAS   9 years ago

        Oh. I assume the real “form” often takes the shape of either an entire team of paper or several hundred dollar bills. Does,that sound about right?

        1. UnCivilServant   9 years ago

          I don’t know, I’ve never gotten that far, one of the earlier forms always gets rejected.

  7. straffinrun   9 years ago

    Why didn’t the dude just buy the guns online? I’ve heard you don’t need bg checks for that.

    1. UnCivilServant   9 years ago

      Well clearly, since he’s selling to mexican drug lords, he’s a federal agent, so this could be the interdepartmental form filing session instead of joe public.

      Actually, do you think joe public could get anywhere near an ATF mandarin who rates a desk?

      1. straffinrun   9 years ago

        Good point, but that raises the real question. Which guy is holding the form?

        1. UnCivilServant   9 years ago

          Judging by that picture… I don’t know

  8. Entropy Drehmaschine Void   9 years ago

    Why is Nixon handing his Application to Archie Bunker?

    1. sloopyinTEXAS   9 years ago

      Stifle it, Entropy Void.

      1. Florida Man   9 years ago

        oh. OHHH!

      2. Entropy Drehmaschine Void   9 years ago

        Get a job, Meathead.

  9. Almanian's Rusty Woodchipper   9 years ago

    Late, but not quite dead yet!! Awful, therefore perfect! Etc. etc. Etc.!!!1

  10. Combaticus   9 years ago

    The original Facebook comment was funnier.

  11. macsnafu   9 years ago

    Is gun walking healthier than gun running??

  12. AD-RtR/OS!   9 years ago

    Opening a new gun-store:

    Black’s Gun Market!
