BETH · 01-01-2012, 12:51 AM

i just got an email from StoneChimmy he is going to send me a screw i need. Seriously look at all the people on here from all over the world willing to help a complete stranger it totally amazes me and Bob giving me a rifle he won and Zane giving me a scope that was sitting around how can a person ask for any more. i just can't believe the people on here everyone is helping everyone, don't u wish the rest of the world could be like this

MOST people in every country are good, decent people.

There just seem like there are plenty of them right here.

joncutt87 · 01-01-2012, 01:41 AM

I wish that the world would go back to the barter system

One day, it WILL and pray that people have got something to barter, because Iphones,laptops and lawyers are going to be worthless.

Reloaders and gunsmiths will have the big advantage

woolleyworm · 01-01-2012, 01:53 AM

and back to what Beth said, this is a great place indeed ! What amazes me most though is folks like you Beth, who now has the confidence to take down a model 60 and give it new life. You're weren't afraid to ask any questions and you're an inspiration to us all. I would love to go shooting with you one day!

berto64 · 01-01-2012, 02:14 AM

Yer rite beth, this is a great place to be. I'm finishing my 10th yr here and I have loved every minute of it. The man who started it all had a great vision and it has stayed true to his vision. A site that is family friendly and a social gathering place for like minded folks to share info and friendship.

I Love You all, after all you are my family here.

permafrost · 01-01-2012, 04:22 AM

There is something special here. Just the right blend of people with a healthy dose of courtesy and respect for each other. And a common link. I think I'll hang around 'til they run me off.

I don't post a lot, but I do read the great information this forum has to offer, and I'd have to agree with permafrost.

And also a big thanks to the admins and mods who keep things running smoothly here.
