Why can't we be like that wise old bird?

Seriously however, I'm glad we've got some motormouths on this forum...been here from Day One and I've learned a lot! Y'all keep jabberin'!

Lurk mode back on...

I posted quite a bit on TFL, but I read much more than I post now. The most knowledgeable people already post answers to questions before I have a chance to post. We do have a very intelligent group here at The High Road.

I see some of the same questions over and over again. I've owned both an AK and AR-15 and saw the advantages and disadvantages between the two. I don't get involved in those discussions anymore. So there isn't much to post that hasn't already been posted.
 
Yup

I find I learn more by listening than talking, and there is a world of things to learn here.
 
"Just happen to see the same names posted on every thread, whether or not they have anything really useful to add or not."

Some just have to move their mouth - & at times, I'm one of 'em. :neener:
 
I like to read and observe more than I like to talk. Still learning about guns, so when I know everything then everybody can sit back and bask in my knowlage. You all can be over welmed as the facts spew forth from my brain (so check back in a couple hundred years).
 
I lurk a lot. Half the time I don't know what I'm talking about, so it's probably for the best:eek:
 
I post only when I have something pertinant to the original question. ( a few exceptions) No desire to post simply to have my number of posts get bigger like some. Of course with a smaller # of posts means one is a "newbie" and doesn't know anything. :banghead: HMMM...if true, did the "know-it-alls start with a few thousnad and build from there? Must've. ;) :banghead:
 
SCOOB, There's a lot of non-lurkers on this forum that don't know what they are talking about. They just feel a need to honk their horn. Some folks will disagree with whatever you say just for the sake of disagree'n.
My old Pap told me that if you caint say nothin good, don't say nothin at all.
 
my condolences go out to Fudgie Ghost. having to live in NYC is not a fvorable place for a firearms person. I'm there every few months visiting in-laws on the "island". Not even any decent shops there. T&T was mediocre but nother better there so far.
 
Blackhawk73: I appreciate your sympathy. Yeah, sometimes I feel like Carmen Electra on a gay cruise. Nobody's interested in what I'm interested in.

But there are gun owners 'round here. But we gotta be like secret agents. Sad but true. As you probably know, all of my pistols, (not that I have that many) are registered with the state. Every time I want to buy or sell one, have to submit "amendment" forms, wait 6-10 weeks. Then you have to pick it up in person at the county clerk's office. And this prevents. . . what? For the life of me I can't see how anybody can even fantasize how regristration will prevent a crime with a registered gun. I can see the arguement that it makes tracking the gun AFTER the crime. But,-- uh, so what? What exactly does that do? I think it just is another extension of the type of thinking that imbues an object with inherently evil properties. The tracing of the guns path---the evil thing as it makes its insidious way to the eventual tragic incident.

I figured out a good way to keep from having anybody take the seat next to me on the train to NYC: Read a copy of SOF, Amerian Rifleman, etc. They glance down, then----whoosh! Off they go down the aisle! "Crazy man reading a magazine with pictures of guns! Aaahhrrrghh!" I smile to myself, and think--"beat it ya Volvo driving, NY Times reading, over-educated, pay-someone-else-to-love-my-kids(nanny) employing. . . . PERSON!"

Oh! the humanity! But, there are some good things and people here. Just buried under a ton of smug, self-satisfied, entrenched liberal thinking (see above mini-rant). But that John Stossel show that other night was a ray of hope--shows there are other viewpoints making their way to the surface.
 
I've lurked hear quite a lot, with only a post or two.
Over at the Falfiles.com my post count is over 1,100.:D
