Not trying to be overly critical, and yes I usually know what folks are getting at, BUT....how would you like to buy a Man Licker rifle? Any other brand names that get butchered in spelling or pronunciation that just annoys you?
Some names have been spoken incorrectly so long that if you don’t use the incorrect pronunciation people don’t know what you are speaking of.
Coues deer is a good example. Many pronounce it Coos Deer. The person the sub species is named after pronounced his name Cows. The family name was pronounced Cows.
But if you say Cows Deer many don’t know what you’re talking about.
Actually, Brno is not an acronym. It's the city in Czechoslovakia where the guns were manufactured. Across the river from Austria as I recall. Did it remain in Czech Republic?
Edit: I was incorrect. Thinking of another company. The city of Brno is located well within Czech Republic. The gun manufacturer name may appear as all upper case or not depending on the source.
I'm related to a gun store owner who swears the Swarovski rep. claimed the correct pronunciation was
"Sue-worss--kee" He proceeded to indoctrinate all in contact with that pronunciation.
See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.
