Two SPAS-12s for an HK416?

There was a mix of reactions among the people that watched it but Russel immediately presented himself, "Dude! What the fu— It's better than the movies! Take me sometime!"

Unc Zeidrick immediately laughed-scoffed as he was scratching his head, "What are you gonna do? File them with your hands? Learn how to use guns— no, learn how to use them like him first and you could go out."

"DAD~!!!"

Russel started to plead with his dad but Oscar interjected, "We'll take care of that sooner or later. Kid. Holy shit, that was intense. I give up, good job on that run. You brought more people and supplies, that's something I'd gladly lose to."

"Thanks! However, you still need to give me back those SPAS-12s though. I heard you took them once you discovered them at the back of the armored van. You know our rules, I found those."

Oscar backed away as he exploded, "WHAT?! You hate shotguns, right?! You even gave Ken the sawed-off Remington!"

I chuckled as I turned to him, "Finders keepers. I found the van and the van contained the SPAS-12s so… they're mine even if you're the one that came upon it. Even if I dislike using shotguns, they're still mine technically. However, if you want to hold onto those, I'll take your M134 and an AK-47 off your hands."

Oscar looked at me with widened eyes as his blood ran through his head, "KID?! The M— The fucking M134, are you kidding me?! That's my pride and joy! What the fu— and a fucking AK on top of that?!"

It was then that I started to lay off, "Hah! I'm just joking, old man. Breathe. Hmm, how about an HK416 with a laser sight, a suppressor, a sling, and a scope? My choice. Oh! Add in two 100-round drum mags."

"Kid?! Wait— just one? Hmm~"

As Oscar and I kept on talking, I heard Allan whispering to everybody, "How many guns do those two have? 10? 20? 100? What's an M134? And an HK416? I used to have a long .45 before… I think it was called a .47..."

'Wut?'

I made one of my ears listen to them and Kaley replied, "I think Rin knows the exact number, right?"

Rin responded, "I can't tell you guys but it's definitely a LOT."

"Argh! I'd really like to have one!" Allan exclaimed.

Jared laughed, "Hah! From those two? Aside from them giving it to you willingly, getting it from other means is like stealing a coin from a dragon. Add to that that bro even knows each serial number of everything they owned. One look and he'd know you swiped it."

"Seriously?!"

Oscar took me back as he exclaimed, "Fine! One of my HK416s with the attachments and the drum mags..."

"Filled with 5.56 ammo, yeah?" I tilted my head, smiling.

"No! You said 100-round drum mags only! You never said anything about ammo!" Oscar raged again.

Another wave of a serious back and forth between the two of us occurred and since the meeting had more or less ended, the adults left us while the young ones stayed behind.

Lois chuckled, "Hah! Gramps is getting played around."

"Yeah, he really got good at talking to people once he took over the business..." Nicole shook her head.

"That's right, he used to just hole up in his room playing games and whatnot," Jared added.

Kaley chimed in, "He's really different when I first met him… He's doing a really good job being in charge of this place. My sister and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him… I..."

Oscar's loud and towering voice drowned out what the rest were saying but I threw another curveball at him.

"Wait, wait, wait! We're talking about the 5.56s here, where in the hell did we get to 7.62s?!" Oscar erupted.

"Reparations. You used the ammo of my SPAS-12s when you went out earlier. It's only proper to replace them!"

"Bah! Fine! Fine! An HK416 with the attachments, 2 drum mags filled with 5.56s, and 30 rounds of 7.62s. Deal, you little shit?" Oscar had enough of it.

"Deal. Shake on it?" I raised my hand for a handshake.

"Deal and done! The fuck would you exchange two guns for one? No taking it back, you little shit!" Oscar exclaimed with a pose.

I just smiled and said to myself, 'I would've settled for the HK416 with just a scope and 60 rounds... Man, I'm an honest guy but when it comes to guns… add to that he's too much of a lover of shotguns...'

After that, we went to his own armory. It was filled several times with what I had but it was a garbled mess. There were several guns tucked neatly in his safes but the table in front of us just had a pile of guns assembled and disassembled, making my head itch. However, he knew where each of them was placed and it was his own arrangement of chaos.

"I told you to clear this table, right?"

"Bah, just pick up that HK416 just on that corner."

"No, I'll take a new one! You have them in this safe, right?"

"If you could open it— What the fuck?! When did you know the passcode?!"

"Your greasy fingers when cleaning them left a mark. Clean this place, I'll help you."

"YOU— Sure..."

I then picked up my brand new HK416 and went to his lower cabinet to grab a few attachments that were still in their boxes. It was easy enough to zero it but I just saw a pile of 5.56s and 7.62s on the ground that Oscar threw out of spite. However, I happily loaded the drum mags and the extra AK mag that I picked up.

After a while, I went outside to look for Allan. He was by the poolside and he was helping with keeping the kids from running off the edge of the pool.

"Dude!" I called out.

"Yeah? Woah! Is this the HK416?!" Allan's eyes lit up.

"Yeah, please don't call it a 418 just because it's longer… Here, you're gonna do watch duty tonight, right? Avoid dozing off, yeah?" I handed him the gun and he raised it up like a lost relic being found for the first time. An incantation was almost recited but I brought him back to reality.

"Dude, thank you for giving me this gun, I—"

"It's just a loan, that's still mine. But tonight, you can have it temporarily."

"Sure! It's heavy though…"

"It has a hundred rounds on it. I'll grab a normal magazine later. Make sure it stays on semi-auto, that's the switch right there," I said as I instructed him on how to use it.

Allan started to run to the catwalk then he showed the other guys lounging there his new toy.

After a while, the list for the watch duty was now posted on the wall. The rules now were that the list will now rotate between the able people and each shift would be three hours long with three people up. It would start at 9:00 PM and end at 6:00 AM. It would be a total of 9 people each night.

Ken, on the other hand, would be watching everything through the CCTVs and he would occasionally fly his drone around. Despite that, a few guards were still posted in the morning though it was not as strict since everyone would be awake.

Looking at the list, I saw that I wasn't on it so I went to the gym. What surprised me was that a few people also wanted to use the facilities. All the guys were doing arm exercises and their reason was they got jealous of Ken's guns and the way he beat me earlier got ingrained in their heads. Aside from that, Ken was also up there, heckling everybody.

"Amateurs! I have been pushing myself since I was young, you're not gonna get results in a day!"

I got a good look at everybody doing all sorts of things and I facepalmed. Some were lifting the equipment for legs with their arms while a few were lifting with their shoulders instead of their biceps. A truly lost one was furiously rotating the elliptical with his hands, hoping his arms would grow larger.

"You guys will have pulled muscles tomorrow if you continue doing that."

"Well, tell us a few tips then!" somebody shouted.

I grabbed two dumbbells and I demonstrated a few exercises.

"Curl it up moderately but try to release it down very slowly so you feel the tension in your arms. After that, raise it up again with the same speed you did earlier. Also, only lift it up when your arms are about to straighten. Try doing 3 sets with 15 repetitions and it will hit your biceps. Avoid lifting it with your shoulders if you can't carry the weight. Use the small ones first and slowly rise to the heavier ones if you could easily lift the lighter ones. For the other variations…" I continued giving them a small lecture.

I then went on my own and did my usual routine. I stayed there for a couple of hours again and only a few of the guys remained after I was done. They were mostly the guys that worked at my shops and some of them have bigger and bulkier bodies compared to mine. I had a hot shower after cooling down and then I headed to my room. I was exhausted from today and I needed some sleep. I was about to lie down but I heard a knock on my door.

"Hey, still awake?" I heard Kaley's voice.

"Yeah, wait a sec."

I opened my door and saw Kaley with Olivia and Rin.

"Hey, can we borrow your laptop to copy some movies? Oh! You have a huge TV here; can we watch it here instead?!" Olivia quickly ran inside my room. Kaley was about to pull her back but she was already in position with a cheeky smile.

I just scratched my head as I smiled at the two, "Sure, what do you want to watch? I have almost everything here."

"What do you recommend then?" Olivia said.

"What kind of movies do you like?"

"Hmm~ Everything, pretty much."

"That's not much to go on, Kaley? Rin?"

They took a while thinking of one so I decided to pick one at random. I plugged an external drive into the TV and then I pressed shuffle.

"Oh! You picked something, what is it?" Olivia turned to me.

"I think it's the movie of Queen..."

I remembered a tune from one of their songs and I sang it instinctively.

The three immediately turned to me, surprised.

"You can even sing?!" Olivia exclaimed as she flapped her hands.

"Everyone could. I just dabbled on everything so I'm a little~ bit~ good at it. If you let me continue, you'll be assaulted by flats and that's what I'm really good at!"

They started laughing but the movie eventually started. The three of them were sitting on the side of my bed while I was behind them, laying on my side. The tunes and their whispers eventually lulled me to sleep and I just woke up in the middle of the night where Kaley was sleeping next to me. Olivia was present and by our feet while Rin was sleeping on my chair.

I got up and checked the clock and it was 2:16 AM. I carried Olivia to where I was laying earlier and after that, I covered all of them with blankets and went downstairs.
