Funny story

What really kicked it into high gear for me was Atrainwreck's post when motorcycles were being discussed, and he responded to a no-issue post from BPTactical by telling him- "I forgot more than you'll ever know", about Harleys I think. I'm pretty sure that he has never met or spoken to Bert, so beyond having the bollocks to post that, he has no basis for the statement. Besides that, I think Bert is a pretty popular guy here. So I think it's all about the "I'm better than you attitude", which comes across on most of his posts longer than a line. How you can hit the broad side of a barn with those crap guns is beyond me. Just kidding.

I said I was sorry to bert and removed that post, I was having a bad day and typed some things I should not have.

We are all good here Atrain.[Beer]

I for one don't harbor any animosity whatsoever and typically if I do retort it is in good humor albeit sarcastic, but not malicious.

That is the one thing we all must check ourselves on. Bantering back and forth is one thing but when it deteriorates to swearing at each other and such it becomes malicious.

Atrain, the only thing your guilty of in my eyes is the curse of the poison pen. I think we all get the gist of what you are putting across but sometimes you have a way of putting it half a bubble left of plumb. Sometimes it comes across as a bit of extravagances to sometimes full blown BS.
No need to try and impress anybody here, we all have our strengths and our weaknesses.
Just be yourself man.

And that... ladies and gentleman- is graciousness.

I was going to put up a post, there has not been very many people that understand some of the things I say. I have never really been very good at getting what I want to say out in the right words, it is right in my head but when it comes out it is completely different from what I wanted to say, I dont know why and I have just learned to live with it. So if I have offended anyone I apologize. Like you I do not hold a grudge I am on here to talk guns buy guns and do anything else you can with guns, I am not on here to say I am better than anyone cause frankly I dont know any of you guys from Adam. I am definitely not here to make Enemies in the gun world, and no I dont need a hug I just wanted to put out an Apology. Thanks for your time.

Taking a chance here. I don't think Train has a super grasp of the printed word. No offense intended here. There are subtle nuances to any language. There can be a subtle difference between sarcasm & criticism(sp?). Sometimes Train just doesn't get it. I have no actual axe to grind, and..........maybe enough said. I'm still perfectly willing to say that if he is as good a long-distance pistol shooter as he says he is, I'd like some pointers. Combat distance? I'll bring a $20 (cheap but I'm laid off) to Firing Line tomorrow that I can out-shoot him at that range. See some of you guys tomorrow at Firing Line. [Beer]

This is one of the great things about shooting. I think we are on our way to getting a 65 yard silhouette match set up at Pawnee on the 24th. Best shot gets bragging rights.

Yes, poor shooters will be ragged on, but that's OK. Most of us don't know each other real well and many of us have never been out shooting together, so who knows what will happen. Not to mention, everyone has their good days and bad days.

We all like guns ( I hope). Most of us like to shoot [ROFL1] Why not meet up and put some lead down range?

At the end of the day, we still won't know what we would do if we find ourselves across the street and down the block from a nut case at the IHOP, and I hope none of us ever has to find out. But we will have a better idea of what it is really like to draw and fire, from our EDC rig out to a distance that most of us would not regularly choose to practice.

I hope many of you can make it. I'm looking forward to poking some holes in paper. [Beer]

Quality post.

That is the only place I really shoot, and the range in Nunn, that is a sunday I should be able to make it, I was going to go out today and try out my new carbine but I have been in bed since I got off work with the worse stomach pain I have ever had, I had it all day at work to. I wont get into the blood when I go #2. It is getting better so I hope I will be out there tomorrow.

September 24, 2011, is a Saturday, one week from today. I would assume we would start by 9:00 AM, however whatever works best for the group is fine by me.

Is this a private range, public range, or public land you are talking about? I see that Great Guns Sporting range is located in Nunn.

If we are going to shoot at an established range, someone needs to talk to the management about what they will and will not allow. Also there will be some type of cost involved. We would need to know that as well.

I was thinking of shooting on public land in Pawnee as that makes the cost more affordable for everyone.

Thoughts? Anyone?
