    Few experiences will yield such a broad array of emotion. No bad people here, just bad posts.

    If you want to have a firearm indentified, make sure that you know how to post pics of the weapon. Without pics, you will get some sarcastic responses.

    SOME guys must have some kind of time travel device....because in the world they live in ladies are buscuit making baby machines with not an idea of what a gun is.....the "Gibson Girl" is the perfect catch.....I don't think they will find that here, so they need to get back in the POD and travel back a few years.

    #10 before asking for the merits of the AK vs the AR, the 30-06 vs. the .308, or why everyone seems to hate the Glock, do a search for previously threads on the topic.

    #11. Don't mention the word 'bear(s)' - unless
    you fully intend to have a 300 post thread that
    usually ends up with the grizzly bear faction
    laughing at the black bear faction! Bears are
    a very contriversial topic around here. [:p]

    #12.

    IF you REALLY want to have some FUN
    start a thread off with these words;

    "Which is better, a 9mm or a .45ACP?"

    It's an A-1, bonefide, guaranteed,
    attention'geter![:D][:D][:D]

    #13 if you are a troll in sheep's clothing coming back several times under different names doesn't work. Some guys track IP addresses, a troll can't change his spots, and being in sheep's clothing could be dangerous with DWS around.....

    Also, do a search before you post any 'neat' items or 'news' you think we ALL should know about! Lots of stuff gets recycled here.

    When you have an interesting link to share, check it's validity on www.snopes.com before you post it here.
