there are still good people in the world (this is a most generous forum, with advice from experts in most any field to karmas, just awesome

and, that you can't have too many guns.
also, that people actually sell ones they don't need or use (mind blown)

Probably OK, as long as it's not in Guam.


Guam will tip over if too many of us go there.

Exactly! That was my point.

Well, posting at 3AM probably doesn't help LOL, and you can't put a url in directly from the video you want to display like when you are inserting an image, which is what you did, that won't work....

In Utoob:

In your Reply on SF:

1) How to build my own AR ($$$$$)
2) Meeting some of the nicest people on earth, and when I was in need, someone was able to hold out a hand to keep me from sinking.
3) A few have become some of my very best friends, and we contact each other outside of the forum.

Stay in your lane, don't break the rules and you will enjoy the forum.

To read not only the title of a post but the post it self before posting a reply.
Also read as many of the responses as possible before posting as to not repeat what someone already posted.

From my very first day on this forum (2005) ... this forum welcomed us with open arms
I have met so very many wonderful folks here and have watch amazing love & compassion for folks who were hurting and some were at the end of their rope. Within mere minutes .. SF Angels literally jumped into action.

I remember hearing grown fellers says they had something in their eyes and they needed to step away from their computers to take care of that.


This always has been an amazing place filled to the brim with Amazing Angels.
Some are gone now but I just know that there are a few “ Old Angels” still here and some “New Angels” have slid into their places.

Anybody lucky enough to be A member here ... should count their blessings. For there is No Place On Earth like SF.

Hi Donna, I totally agree. The biggest thing I have learned is the breath of great people here is incredibly long and wide. Unbelievably so.

The love, compassion, concern, desire to help, support, to share, to provide wisdom, etc. You name it. It happens here every single day.

When I joined almost 20 years ago. I had no idea.

I have learned that the wisdom and knowledge and helpful nature of our collective membership is something unique to the internet.

I will never forget the surprise I felt when a very generous fellow member sent me 50 rounds of 9mm because they were interested in my Sig Pro reduced power mainspring project and the progress pics I had been posting. This was during one of the first great frenzy gun & accessory purchase periods when ammo was almost impossible to find and thus my Sig Pro project had stalled. The membership here is incredible.

I don’t know if it was the most important thing I learned but the member many many many years ago who taught/helped me figure out my P226 Navy’s contrast sights and my aiming issue is definitely up there. Cool

I've learned that if you are traveling to a specific locale here in the USofA just mention it here on the forum, someone from just down the street from where you're going will gladly offer up invaluable advice!!!

You can also meet life-long friends in some of those locales!!!

"Age does not bring wisdom. Often it merely changes simple stupidity into arrogant conceit. It's only advantage, so far as I have been able to see, is that it spans change. A young person sees the world as a still picture, immutable. An old person has had his nose rubbed in changes and more changes and still more changes so many times that that he knows it is a moving picture, forever changing. He may not like it--probably doesn't; I don't--but he knows it's so, and knowing is the first step in coping with it."
