Your Past Is Showing (1957)

Henry Hewitt: Gunsmith

Quotes 

• Sonny MacGregor : I'm having a day's rough shooting and I want some bullets, please.

  Gunsmith : Cartridges? Certainly, sir. Any particular make?

  Sonny MacGregor : No, as long as they've got gunpowder in them.

  Gunsmith : What bore?

  Sonny MacGregor : Boar? No, no. A few rabbits, pheasants, small fry, you know.

  Gunsmith : No, no, no, sir. Bore. B-O-R-E.

  Sonny MacGregor : Bore!

  [laughs] 

  Sonny MacGregor : Hmm?

  Gunsmith : 12, 20 or 4-10?

  Sonny MacGregor : Er... Definitely, yes.

  Gunsmith : Well, which, sir?

  Sonny MacGregor : Well, the largest you have, surely.

  Gunsmith : 12-bore. How many, sir? 50?

  Sonny MacGregor : No. No, I think you'd better make it a thousand.

  Gunsmith : A thousand?

  Sonny MacGregor : Yes.

  Gunsmith : But didn't you say a day's rough shooting?

  Sonny MacGregor : Yes, I did, er... and it may be pretty rough. On second thoughts, I think you'd better make it fifteen hundred, perhaps.
