It was a rerun, but it was the first time I saw this episode. Turd comes in with an ejection seat and a goof story, says its a WWII seat.

If was an F4 martin baker seat, and it made me nervous as hell just watching those guys handle it. Like watching little kids playing with a shotgun they found.

I ASSUME, that it had all the pyros removed, could not tell from the show because of the angles, but the drogue chute deployment was still attached, there is a charge in the bottom that would drive the 1 inch steel rod through anything above it.

There are also rocket packs, and other pyros used to initiate seat sequences. They must have been removed, but the seat looked intact and would have scared the hell out of me to be around it without checking it out first.

I was in that pawn shop last November. They were filming something - up close shots of some old guy who brought in some jewelry. Seemed even seedier than the average pawn shop.
