Pearl Harbor survivor Houston James of Dallas embraces Marine Staff Sgt. Mark Graunke Jr. during a Veterans Day commemoration in Dallas. Graunke lost a hand, a leg and and eye when he defused a bomb in Iraq last year.
Said I never had much use for one, never said I didn't know how to use it.

Cruffler is a sort of made up term that folks who collect C&R (curio and relic - mostly 50 year + old) firearms tend to use.  It's a hodge-podge of C&R FFL which is a FFL that allows you to purchase C&R Firearms directly from a wholeseller w/o using a gunshop for the transfer.

No problem I found it at a other site and it should be spread all over the net!
