I don't think this will fit in her purse

According to American Rifleman, the National Rifle Association will feature a custom made AR-15 made specifically for Alaska Governor Sarah Palin at its upcoming annual banquet. http://features.csmonitor.com/politics/2009/05/04/palin-to-be-honored-by-nra-with-special-m4-like-assault-rifle/ The all-white “Alaskan Hunter” is modeled after an M-4 and its .50 caliber Beowulf chamber leaves one former Special Forces veteran impressed. “Wow, that’s sweet,” US military weapons specialist Jack Hancock told The Vote. “The fact that they actually got a .50 caliber on an AR-15 frame is remarkable.” He also noted it would “easily take down” an elephant or a polar bear. However, Hancock advised against hunting caribou with the Alaskan Hunter, despite the abundance of caribous in Alaska. “There really wouldn’t be a lot left to eat off of it, but then again you wouldn’t have to worry about gutting it either.” If it's ever announced that Gov. Palin has dislocated her shoulder or broken her collarbone, we'll know she couldn't resist giving it a try-out.
