Default 10 fun filled years

The new forum software drops the date of registration and only gives the month. Regardless, its been 10 years of posting here. Made a lot of friends. I've even met a good number at various events. Most are pretty good people. Some I regret losing track of. Like Osprey, The Reaper, etc.

Its still the best place to get good information on S&Ws when you need it. There's always someone here who has the answer or information you need. It would seem our members have been everywhere and done everything. Better still, most are willing to share their knowledge with those they've never met or even disagree with on occasion.

Its a good place. Enjoy it. And hope the forum and those who inhabit it will be here for 10 more years!

Default I am glad to have been a part of it Dick....

I have to say that you are a large part of the reason that I've hung around so long myself.

I keep waiting to see if you can find K116...

Congrats on 10 years. Wonder how many words was in the near 20,000 posts you've made? Probably reach from coast to coast if lined up letter by letter.

You make gun shows more fun and your table always serves as a clearing house for the S&W crowd.

Well Mr.Burg,you are one of the main reasons I became addicted to this site. I hope that you will remain for many years to come and that I will still be here for many years after you're gone.

Mr. Burg: Thank you. I read every word you post and have yet to find anything with which to disagree. Always informative and written with a gentlemanly spirit.

If you're looking for ammo at a gun show get there before Burg does. Burg, September is on.

Dick, not that it makes any difference but your about a week late. Your sign on date was 6/18/01. Click on your user name and in the upper right corner under mini statistics it'll show it.
Bet you won't remember that in another 10yrs!

Been reading your post since I joined and have always found them informative.

Congratulations Dick. It's folks like you that make this such a special place among all the internet madness. I still can't believe it took me so long to find it.

Handejector, I've tried to teach him.... bought him books and he'd chew the covers off and give them back to me.
