Ever read 1984 by George Orwell? To the left, the ability to deceive oneself is very important.

I do not own a firearm valued at $150 or less.

I have an old .38 I’d love to sell for $100. Too bad it would take me several days and $300 worth of gas to get there.

I might have to let them “buy back” a few.. Got 3 old junk revolvers in .32 rimfire. Couldn’t sell ‘em at the show for $50.
