Chapter 4: Cash or Credit?

Three hours later we were pulling into the Springs. A large enough town we could hide in plain sight and be able to buy weapons and ammunition too.

I drove to my favorite gun store and asked RJ about being able to pay for the weapons and ammunition.

RJ asked, "What I meant by pay for the weapons and ammunition?"

We have to give money or credit which is kind of like a promise of money in exchange for weapons and ammunition. That is how these people make their living.

RJ had a puzzled look for a short time then smiled and said she understood now. I still did not understand this AI interface thing.

Credit we will use credit then. I laughed and said that my credit was all used up and that I did not think RJ had any credit on my planet. RJ said that my credit was very good now and we needed to hurry. I did not want to know what she meant by my credit was very good. I just felt like I was going to jail.

John Wyman was a friend who worked at the 'Shooting Shack' funny name but everyone came here for quality and price. I told John that I needed as many 9MMs as he could sell me and to give me all the magazines for the pistols that he had. Before I could ask for all the semi-automatic rifles in 5.56MM he started to laugh. When I asked for the 5.56MM rifles and all the 12 gauge shotguns and ammunition he was laughing so hard I thought he was going to pass out. RJ did not understand why he was laughing. John made such a scene the manager came over to see what was going on. RJ asked if he wanted to make a sale since the other man was laughing at our request.
