Glock forum. - The Firearms Forum

Pistolenschutze · 02-14-2006, 10:05 PM

Discrimination, I say! Hire the lawyers, file the papers! We have a 1911 Forum, but no Glock forum! How about it? There are a few of us progressive types out there not married to an anachronism.

SouthernMoss · 02-14-2006, 10:41 PM

I'll pass the word on to Admin.

Marlin · 02-14-2006, 10:48 PM

We might include all the plastic guns and call it:

"Tupperware Forum" !!!!!!!!!!

flopshot · 02-15-2006, 07:03 AM

""Tupperware Forum" !!!!!!!!!!"
i'd go along with that if the 1911 forum was changed to the "paperweight" or

"doorstop" forum. or we could just wait till they all rust away and take over the space.

ROFLMAO! Very good, Flop. I couldn't have said it better myself!

GLOCKS FOREVER!

Those 1911 people are afraid the glock forum will show up the 1911 forum.

That would be axiomatic, Wolf. Comparing 1911s to Glocks is like comparing bicycles to Porches.

Naa, maybe it'll keep you boneheads out of the 1911 forums!

Just kidding, I shot a glock once. Not a bad lil shooter.

I think I've figured out why there is no Glock Forum. Could it be that all the Admin people are reactionary old goats, like Marlin for example? Just a theory, you understand.

Now, that may be, but I see your birthday is today and you're still a young'un to us!

Must be them plastic guns!

Happy Birthday, PS!

Marlin · 02-16-2006, 08:49 AM

In spite of the younguns wanting always to play with them thar toy plastic guns . . . . . . .

HAPPY NATAL DAY, Pistol, and may god richly bless you today and throughout the coming year.

Pistolenschutze · 02-16-2006, 10:04 AM

Inplano, Marlin, thanks for the birthday wishes.

As for being a "young un," I consider myself old enough (57 today) to know better, but still young enough to go and do it anyway and probably get away with it, just not as often as when I was 21.

OK, Marlin, I guess you're not an old goat. A reactionary, yes, but not an old goat.

Marlin · 02-16-2006, 10:51 AM

My Dad once called himself a "Yankee Ole Timer", even when he was in his thirties. His hair was white as snow by the time he was 30!!!! I have always maintained, as did he, that one is only as old as he allows himself to be.

SoMo would be the first to tell you I am as young as she!!!!

Seven decades just applies to the bod, not the mind. Incidentally, I don't take issue with "reactionary", as I am then in good company, Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Franklin, Sam Adams and just about all the Foundings.

Yeah, me too, Marlin, at least when it comes to politics, just not when it comes to Glocks v. 1911s.

I might point out, however, that in their time the fine gentlemen you named were most assuredly not reactionary. Had they been, we would have a king now instead of a president. They were the progressives, the radicals, of their time, a product of the 18th century Enlightenment.

You know, all kidding aside, I must admit to some reactionary tendencies myself when it comes to guns. For example, when it comes to rifle stocks and revolver grips, I still much prefer the feel of fine wood (preferably walnut) over plastic any day of the week. I am still overly fond of the deep bluing of the older guns, the kind the EPA won't allow anymore, in place of the soulessness of the stainless steel that is so common today.

I think that's called maturity there PS!

We must hold close our ability to jaw with each other about our favorite pastime and most important our toys. I see a lot of good natured comments to all. I learn daily from all the forums available.
