There was a ‘misunderstanding’ about the trailer hitches? They looked great to me. The salt and pepper should get them going at the company lunchroom...

They looked too great to some police and citizens. Some folks could not be convinced that it was just a hunk of inert plastic with a NATO-standard "inert" marking on it, just to play it safe.

They still sell it, but the page has a disclaimer that buyers might get hassled by the ignorant. There should be less of a problem with the 40mm salt and pepper shakers.

I'm tempted to cut out a cardboard silhouette of a couple of AK47s, spray them flat black, and then hang them from a rifle rack in the back of my Envoy. But knowing the Detroit area like I do, I'd probably be killed.

It was bad enough I almost walked into a potential firefight when I went to the range today. More on that later.
