Great idea for a thread!

I'm really happy to see young guys here. We need to pass this down.

You don't know the half of it. My next door neighbors, man and wife, are both 38. They have two kids and both of them are- you guessed it, 38.

It's all about the math. Anyone can be 38 if you crunch the numbers the right way.

34 here; it was suggested that I come here from another forum after buying myself a P226 for my 23rd birthday. The rest, as they say, is history.

My son has been lurking on the forum since shortly after I joined, when he was about 10. He's now 25, and has 2 SIG's of his own, but still hasn't registered, so I guess that it doesn't count.

Yeah, I can recall at least a couple 18/19/20 year olds over the years.

IIRC, Imprezaguy was around that old when he first joined.

Judging from the posting style, I'd say it was once "Ol' two plates taped to his back," but he ain't been heard from in a while.

I joined the forum at 27. At that point I was celebrating 26 for nearly 2 years. I'm still celebrating my 26th birthday, I'm just really experienced at it.

Younger guys don't hold forums such as this in the high regard younger guys might have, 20 years ago. There are other options these days to gather information- Facebook groups and the like.

SIGforum's member base has aged along with the forum.

I’m nipping at your heels. I’ll be 42 in November.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
