    Default More examples of you guys....

    ...being outstanding people. I've had the pleasure of meeting of few of you on here and today, Saturday, I met 2 more outstanding and friendly members.

    mcantar18c and crays. Two very nice and friendly guys. I only regret I didn't join here sooner but I just needed to pass on the good word. Today is a tough day as I found out right around noon that my only surviving uncle had passed yesterday in Pennsylvania (he hadn't been in good health but it was still a shock). I was in a funk, had a range session already planned, was debating continuing but did. mcantar allowed me to run a few rounds through his recent AR pistol build to see what I thought of it-it reinforced that I do want to get one.

    crays got the .44 mag ammo I had and offered up some .45acp Federal that my 1911 prefers. Both of these great guys allowed me to have a better than expected range session.

    Thanks again, hope everybody has a great weekend.

    Condolences Doc. I lost a cousin suddenly last week myself. It's hard when you don't expect it, and you are far away.

    Condolences. The B-I-L lost to cancer that went from nothing to full tilt, in 3.5 weeks. it was another Merry Christmas, again.

    I am sorry for your loss.

    This is the neighborhood I wished I lived in. I easily spend more time and know more people here than I do in the neighborhood where my house is

    Sorry to hear about your Uncle....Doc.

    I've met a number of folks from this board, done business and pleasure with several of them.....and I echo your sentiment. Crays is a great guy.

    I think Cstone is right, this place is my neighborhood too.

    I've met 50+ members of this forum and only one time was the member kind of sketchy. Young folks, old folks, and lots of good, honest folks. That's why I like this place.

    hahaha nope! It was several years ago, but the guy is still around. Our transaction was fine, he was just someone I probably wouldn't deal with again.

    Did it involve a used chainsaw?
