I`m a 23 year old male student from Norway :) , been interested
in firearms since I was 5 , though I don`t " theoretically " own any yet .

[T.Stahl]

Uuh, I see a growing number of Norwegians on this board. :what:
Disproportionately more than Germans, Austrians, French, British or other Europeans.

Must have something to do with the much better knowledge of English that the Norwegians have. ;)

Anyways, welcome on board! :D

Norwegian,

I'm of Scottish and Polish ancestory, with a little mutt thrown in to even my temperment, but I live among people of Scandinavian ancestory. :D :D

[Norwegian]

Oh cool , well now there are alot more people by Scandinavian roots over there then there are people in Scandinavia I guess .

Anyway I know there are like Scandinavian " colonies " over there...haha would be funny to visit them sometimes .

[enichols]

Welcome!

[NonServiam]

Velkommen, landsmann!

Hm. Student. In Oslo? If so, send me a pm. I'm the president of the Academic Shooting Club at the University of Oslo, and we'll have you shooting and owning firearms the fastest way we can. We shoot airguns (rifle and pistol), ISSF and "felt" (field target, national pistol sport), and 300m rifle.

As the newest resident Norwegian, you have now been assigned to help the rest of us enlighten those cocksure 'murricans on the realities of gunowning in Europe. We're not all Englishmen over here ...

[M67]

Did I hear the call of the tribe? Velkommen!

Uuh, I see a growing number of Norwegians on this board. Sssh! It's a conspiracy, don't tell the Americans. :evil:

[T.Stahl]

Psssst, M67, I know another two Vikings and will try to point them this way. ;)

[Penman]

Welcome! Get yourself across the pond sometime, and we'll go shooting.

[blades67]

Welcome to THR.:)

[CZ-75]

Must have something to do with the much better knowledge of English that the Norwegians have.

Even better than the English?????


Probably has more to do with the ease that Norwegians have to actually own guns over the other folks on the Continent.

[T.Stahl]

Even better than the English?????

Probably has more to do with the ease that Norwegians have to actually own guns over the other folks on the Continent.

a) More Norwegians than British because they have more guns / are more interested in guns.

b) More Norwegians than French/Germans/Austrians/other Europeans because their English is better.


Ah, wait, b) would also imply that there had to be more Norwegians than ... eh ... nevermind. :D

[igor]

Heisann naboen! It's good to know there are some Scandinavians around, I just wonder where all the Swedes from in between are...

[CZ-75]

T. Stahl,

BTW, what does the "not much longer" in your location line mean?

Are you coming to our side of the pond to help establish a "gunowners paradise" by adding another tool-using human to the voter registration/naturalized citizen rolls?

[Boats]

Uuh, I see a growing number of Norwegians on this board.

Could be that since Al Qaeda has declared war on Norway, we Americans have more in common with them than with most continential Europeans.:evil:

Welcome!

[NonServiam]

Well, some of my countrymen who are not as happy about the American influence on our culture sometimes refers to Norway as the 51st US state :D

[Skunkabilly]

Uuh, I see a growing number of Norwegians on this board.

So when are the Norwegian ladies checking in? :D Back down, Kirk!!

[El Tejon]

Skunk, geez, you make a few comments . . . .:p

[Norwegian]

Thanks again for a nice welcome..nice to see some fellow country men on the board .

Skunkabilly : NNOOOO!!! I study abroad and now I`m even more
homesick for the ladies :( , even though I study in Malta and I must say the girls here are quite pretty yes :D :D

[T.Stahl]

CZ-75,

Move to the US? Good heavens, no! :what: I'm just wasting too much time on the road to and back from work, so I'm looking for a place closer to the office.

[CZ-75]

Move to the US? Good heavens, no!

What's the matter? Don't you like bad beer and slow driving?

[Bainx]

Glad you're here with us. We relish opinions/takes from "over there".:)

Welcome to THR

[Sylvilagus Aquaticus]

The Norwegians, Swedes, and Finns all seem to be able to lay hands on better toys in some cases than we can here in the States.

Dang, I'd love to hunt moose with a suppressed 6.5x55...
...or have a SiG550....


Regards,
Rabbit.

[M67]

Hi, Swamp Rabbit, I found a picture on a Finnish website. Maybe this is something for the Brady-bunch. If you can use the words three-year old, machine gun and suppressor in the same sentence, maybe their heads will explode... It's all for the children, you know. :D

Skunk, Kirk, Schuey - you have all fallen victim to brainwashing. We now have you at the Pavlovian stage, you know the dogs that started to drool when they heard the food-bell. As soon as "Norway" is mentioned, you guys think "women" and start drooling on your keyboards. It seems that the Germans too have had considerable success with "subject Schuey"; he also drools at the mere mention of the letters H and K. :D

Torsten, did you ever get around to that Norwegian hiking trip you talked about last year? If my memory serves, I offered to buy you a beer if you make a stop in Oslo. If you can recruit your friends and NonServiam's girlfriend gives him a night off, we could make it a real THR gathering... :)

Norwegian, it looks like your thread is drifting a bit off topic. Once again, welcome to the boards, and as NonServiam said, whenever you find yourself in Oslo, send us a mail and we will take you shooting. And be advised, just your choice of screen name is enough to make the troika mentioned above go off topic and start talking about girls...
