My fellow S&W My fellow S&W enthusiasts ... I'd like to say ...
My fellow S&W enthusiasts ... I'd like to say you rock.
I started here years ago and while I may have found myself butting heads with a few members I credit even my most worthy of debate opponents with civility.
I also credit the management of the S&W forum for your resulting effective .. and fair governance.
Love me or hate me, or even if you ignore me please take the time to shake your hand on my behalf.
You each have my utmost respect for your ability to discuss points and counter points and accepting truth over the will to win.
Your collective moral priorities are worthy of recognition.
Recognition, that I feel compelled to extend at this time.
Among you represents the very best this nation has to offer

your good ... and this is the kinda stuff i'm talking about.
elsewhere I have offered advice .. had my words twisted contorted and blenderized.
While a few here have miss understood, or taken things out of context such things were treated fairly once explained.
Im having no such luck elsewhere as it would seem the philosophy of personal conduct to be found here, is not a universally held ideal

Actually I am right along side of you. I have not been on many forums or internet groups that have been near this good, which lends in part to my post count (that and I like to see myself type ). I have met some of the best people in the world here, and made life long friends with many.

and they are not so prone to attempt to destroy ones livelihood around here.
I may very well have a case at this point ... I hate courtrooms but if I must in order to keep on keeping on .. it is what it must be.

Are you two done patting each other on the back? But you are among the "Elder Posters" on the Forum.
I do agree with your comments about the quality and integrity of members of this Forum. The Big Gorilla does deserve some of the credit.

This IS a great forum! So much professionalism and expert posting and NO profanity except where it might fit.
And whatever you did venomballistics, I'm sure it'll be ok! Dale

I was going to do a HUH? to the OP, but Bad's response stopped that.
This is truly the most civil of the umpteen forums I have run across.
