Mr. Waffles |
As the title says, I miss the Bell of the South and her great prices on SIGs. Anybody seen or heard from her? Also P220ST and his Friday night specials. I don't think he is still in the firearms business. Haven't seen or heard from him in a long time. ***************************************************** A shepherd must tend his flock....and at times fight off the wolves | ||

Steve(AKA P220ST) doesn't sell firearms anymore. I did a few deals with him back in the day. He posts on FB now and then. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.

Steve got me a minty P225 back in the day. A pleasure to do business with. I hope he’s doing well. | |||

Steve got me my P220 and shipped it to Bruce Gray for his 10mm conversion. I also got a P229 SAS from him. I remember when he was in the pest control business before that. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

Boy waiting around for the Friday night sales that 220ST/Steve would hold weekly was so much fun and they were really good deals at that. For some reason I had thought MissGal/Donna had been more active recently but when I did a ID search it has been almost a year since she has posted. They both were well respected around here. | |||

Steve was great guy. I still carry a 642 I bought from him back in the day!! Kind of sad how people wander in and out of your life. I tried calling an ex coworker this week and his phone was disconnected. Not sure if he alive or dead  | |||

I got a 642 from Steve as well, a good guy to deal with. I miss that dancing tomato! | |||

I was just thinking about Steve recently, wondering what he was up to these days. Got my first gun from him (226) as a 21st birthday present to myself (about 6 months after becoming a member here and hearing all the rave reviews from members here). I live in CA and couldn't have the 12rd mags, so he sold them and sent me the money to buy 10rd mags. Thought that was awesome of him. He, also, called me shortly after getting my gun to see how I liked it and to make sure I was happy. Just a short casual conversation. I thought that was, also, awesome of him. I believe I remember reading about some sort of issues that led him away from firearms, but not sure. He was great and I'm sure lots of people here miss him. ...Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, is just a freight train coming your way... | |||

I bought a 642 from Donna and a couple of guns from Steve. Sorry to see either one of them not here anymore. | |||

I bought a G19 from Steve in 2007. I still have it. He was a pleasure to work with. | |||

I remember the forum coming together for Steve. Quite an impressive thing to see. Seems the gun business is just a very tough business. Certainly doesn't help when injuries set you back. | |||

I remember that too.... But I can't remember why or what happened... | |||

He is no longer selling firearms as an FFL, but he does work at a range. He went back into the pest control business for a while and might still be involved in that also. I keep up with him on FaceBook No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||

I am not sure where Donna is currently. As I remember things, one of her family members had a very serious medical issue. This reminds me, I should email her. ____________________________________________________ New and improved super concentrated me: Proud rebel, heretic, and Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal.

I am glad that you brought up Donna. Prayer sent for her welling being and for all of her family. I seem to recall her posting after she lost a sister. Iirc. I am old enough here to remember the early three. James, Jerry and Steve. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

I heard back from Donna moments ago. She's a good person and a great believer in the Lord. ____________________________________________________ New and improved super concentrated me: Proud rebel, heretic, and Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal.

to all my SigForum Friends. I am posting today to say Thanks To All who have ask about us in our absence. First my Apologies for not posting sooner. Without going into Great detail .... it has been a very hard year. I am Not Complaining or Whining as I feel Truly Blessed!!! Our Home in the deep woods country was great for the past 9 years but very draining. When you make a place from pristine woods to a full time home place ... the work is never ending. Just a fact. As most of you know my husband is 100% Disabled Veteran and most things associated with creating a " new home place" was something that required outside help going forward. So after living in our country place dream home .. for 9 years ... it was evident that going forward ... coupled with getting older ... was more than we could continue to do. With help of family and some hired help .. we got our " Country Lodge" ready ... to put on be market and started thinking of smaller area that would be manageable for us. The week before Christmas 2017 ... we had a buyer ... and set into a plan to box up 9 years worth of living and had 30 days to set it all in motion. The buyer was very very gracious about " you can take as much time as needed" to clear out. This is where it got hard and without having a Great Lord and Savior ... and the friends and family that we are blessed with ... it looked impossible. My husband got sick as many many folks do in the winter time. Long story short .. he ended up in our local hospital ER with severe .. Major ... difficulty with breathing and swallowing ... the nightmare we went through for the next 6 days and nights in hospital ... are just too much to write .. but they were able to get him back to melted ice cream and some liquids .. and his Med's were changed to liquids to make it possible to swallow. The were some Drug reactions and are still being dealt with this 9 months later. He is doing better on Many fronts . Within 30 days of my husband's hospital endeavor .. our youngest son .. who has had " Head pain / Headaches " for around 10 years .... had a terrible accident. Totaled his vehicle and by only the grace of God .. is with us still. Again long story short ... he suffered a concussion and one eye had a bleed that will affect his vision going forward. God is walking with him each day and life is getting better for him and his sweet wife. In the middle of all the moving and family medical issues ... I actually renewed my FFL in Feb 2018. ..... but knew unmistakably that my family came first . Period .. so I notified the BATFE that my New unused FFL would be closed out as soon as it arrived to me in the mail. Our new place is in a small Nice Gated Lake Community ... it is manageable ... with lovely water access and views ... we have a small older pontoon boat parked in our boathouse and in nice weather ... we fish and ride whenever weather and health permits . Our kids and grandkids love coming to fish and swim and boat ride. So we know we are blessed every day that our feet hit the floor. We still have some severe health issues ... but knowing God has our backs.... we take things one day at a time. I miss all our friends on SigForum and will try to check in more often. My Best Friend in Texas sent me a text last night telling me that some folks on the Forum were asking about us. God Bless Each and Everyone Of You! I Miss You! I am honored to call so many of you Friends/ Family. With Much Love, Merry Christmas! W T and Donna Flanagan ( MississippiGal) | |||
