Per Ardua Ad Astra
I had a chap come into my shop a while ago carrying an old 11mm Mauser, and Muzzle loading musket and a Martini Henry, all had parts missing and rusted to hell and back. Basically they were all junk.
He laid them on the counter and asked how much they would be worth (I suspect he thought he was going to pay his house off from the proceeds).
I asked him if he wanted the truth or a load of crap, he replied he wanted the truth.
I asked him if he had a boat, he blinked and asked what owning a boat has to do with the weapons in question.
I replied, “Well, if you had a boat you could weld these together and use them as an anchor.”
He picked his “treasures” up and stormed out of my shop, he hasn't been back since.
He wanted the truth and thats what he got it.
