Those guys who think they know everything really get on the nerves of us that do...
Waterstone!Magic is in the $7 whetstone
Unfortunately in my hands, yes........ Give me a sharp blade and a whetstone and I guarantee within 10 seconds I'll have than knife perfectly dull........ It's why I use electric sharpeners.Waterstone!
Whetstone’s wreck your blades!
Has anyone else noticed that gun guys are loud, mouth, know it all's and if your caliber, manufacture, bullet type doesn't meet their persona they turn into a giant you know what. Man, I am on several FB gun, reloading, etc. groups and these guys just lose their minds when it comes to stuff. Probably the worst is the 6.5cm guys. 6.5cm is end all be all and if you shoot a 308 they call you all kinds of names. I have got into discussions with guys at work and if your beliefes like dont shoot a deer with a 223rem they absolutly freak out on you and its like your enemy #1. I honestly cant put my finger on why people get so worked up over it. If you wanna use your 6.5cm to shoot a cape buffalo at 500yards more power to ya. Just let us know when the funeral is when that thing charges you and stomps you to death.

Maybe this will help.Give me a sharp blade and a whetstone and I guarantee within 10 seconds I'll have than knife perfectly dull........ It's why I use electric sharpeners.
Dang I’ve long considered my self a “gun guy”, if I start showing those traits some one slap me upside the head please.
Donkeys is the word I like for those types of folks too......not the donkeys
I'm seeing opportunity here.
Me too. I enjoy making heads explode. If it I agree with them. I can't stand the this is the only option people. Unless it is the only option.
It's ok to disagree. Being loud and obnoxious isn't.I view it as enlightenment opportunity.
But ... Its okay if they disagree with me, I can't force them to be right.
I did NOT see this one coming. One of the best internet ripostes of the year!They actually "hunt and peck".
This is another problem in our community. A lot of folks profile others, and not in a good way. I've seen inexcusable treatment in gunshops and at the gun counters of women, minorities, gays and others who just didn't "fit the bill" as far as being worthy to be present in the gunshop.I guess since it was July and I was dressed in flip flops and such I just didn't fit the bill as someone who'd be said "gun guy" in his mind!lol!
Gun guys by nature may be of certain type of human, a type “ A”personality perhaps. More than a couple of Type A’s in a group usually leads to lively discussions.
I'd be willing to bet that most of the ones being referred to by the OP are only type "A" when they have a screen and keyboard to hide behind.
Yes, anytime you get a group of folks with very similar interests, there are going to dissenting opinions about certain details. Mostly it boils down to people needing their own decisions to be approved by others, then being defensive when they don't get the approval they hope for.
I'm fortunate enough to have friends and acquaintances who know things because they've done them. I'll take their word on certain things instead of the word of some internet guru who only knows because someone he knows, that may or may not know, told him.
Pfft. 120mm is the way. Quality, not quantity.I am a BIG GUN GUY. Heck with those scrawny 6.5 dudes. I am a 106 mm guy. I am saving up for my next EDC because it could carry me. I can tell you the NVA hated the Ontos. Marines loved them. This one was in Hue City. It made going block by block easier.
