    When I first came on board, I had some prett heated discussion with 'ole Beach about the AK versus the Garand. He's pretty much the reason I switched to the M1A from my AK.I've still got a soft spot for bumping AK's around in the hills, but the M1A has become my obession.Beach, thanks for taking a punk kid under your cyber wing and pulling my head out of my rectum!

    It is too easy to be liked. I dont want to be taken in, I want to be the most hated, despised person who posts on this board. When people see my name on a post, I want them to be thinbking "Boy Id like to kick that guys a@#"

    Boy Howdy! I love these sensitive threads, I can get in touch with my inner boy scout. I liked you right from the start Beekeeper, any feller with a soft spot for useless ammo like .218 Bees and ugly guns like mod. 99's is a guy to keep around!

    Me too, but I find that schnable forend on a lever action a bit too Teutonic. Always kind of jars me.

    It is a piss-poor person who has to build himself up by tearing someone else down.Most on this board treat people politely as they would like to be treated, with a few exceptions.swede

    Taken in? You mean there's a way in? Really? Sweet! That means there's hope for me yet

    It's not hard to like people who you connect with and those of you who I have made friends with here are people who for some reason or another just seem like down to earth folks to me. All of us here have alot in common and seem to grow from knowing each other. Some people may take a friendship through a web site lightly but I have bonded with some good folks on this site and do not take that lightly, even though I have never met some of them face to face I can talk to them about problems or borrow useful information from them and even get an unbiased openion (sp) on personal matters from time to time.How many friends do you have who you can trust with things like that who you can talk to every day????????I think we are all lucky to be able to get together like this!!And I'm lucky to have a friend named 218.Hey Salzo, I like ya!!! Your're not as mean as you like to put on and we all know it!!But we don't mind if you want to keep up the act!!!!!!!

    A certain individual here on this board has shared two meals (and then some) with me in the last few months. I won't drop names due to the fact that some of us wish to remain discreet--in spite of the fact that anyone doing a wee bit of homework could find out exactly where I work and what my real name is. I will give that individual that respect. There are people that cross paths with us in life and then there is that handful of individuals that you are truly thankful for having met. I almost forgot the other two members of a secret triad that took me into their barracks room at the 10th Mountain Division replacement unit. We both arrived almost simultaniously at Fort Drum and were assigned adjacent rooms. One evening I passed by their room and noticed a gun magazine laying on the bed through the open doorway. I commented and was then invited in. The following 18 months were marked with long late evenings playing AD&D and many shooting range and gun show trips (not to mention a couple of rendezvous at a secret location down south). They took me in like nobody else. Hell...two FISTERS taking in an MP investigator. Now that is almost unheard of! I have never had real tears in my eyes when saying goodbye to another man (except maybe dad when he dropped me off at basic training).

    I,ve been hanging around here for quite a spell now but don`t jump in too often and therefore haven`t really made a connection with too many of you as of yet.Lots of times I think of jumping in with something but back off.Guess I`ve always been the kind of guy who keeps to himself, even here where you can remain unknown.
