I am happy to say, I am still here. Have been here since Feb. 2000
This is one of the finer places to visit, and hang out
Best,

Wow. I missed this post years ago. I recall SmithNut and enjoyed the posts. I believe around 2002 was the first time I went on the site. Was busy with college and started visiting again around 2006, periodically, to learn more. After a couple more years, I thought, this is crazy, why don't I join, I'm reading here all the time to learn. Still learning and having fun.

Sad to say, I was late to the game. I joined according to the computer in 2006. Although I swear it was earlier than that!!
I have gotten such an education while here.

I may barely qualify 12-28-2000.
"I am still in awe of JoniLynns N-frame collection, all with Herrett grips."
You and me both, wonder what happened to her.

Shocking, an 8 year old thread and not one poster with "banned" under his name. Then again if they was with the "banned" they wouldn't be posting today. Like my sainted daddy used to say: "Why you still talking when you don't have anything to say?" Joe
I don't get around here much except to check ads…wonder if this thread still posts? Here since 3-2-2000 but got tied up in plastic M&Ps and 1911s for years. Got to get by here more now since I'm piddling with S&W revolvers again.
It's a great forum. I've been here since 2004 myself

Still here
I predate 2000. 1997 or '98. At some point I forgot my password and could only get in by creating a new account here (or for some reason I forget, new ownership?) and so it says 2002 but I was here before that.

2003 here.
At some point we did an upgrade (or some such thing) and my post count decreased by 2 or 3 thousand. Makes me look like a newby, eh?

December of 2003 for me.
I was in awe of many of those old timers, and spent far more time reading than posting back then.

How about lowriderfx?
Yeah. Manny, right? Bought a whole buncha reg mags, maybe 12 or so, subsisted on instant noodles, and then sold 'em off to buy or renovate a house, as I recall.

I don't remember the details but I thought the firearm liquidation had something to do with his daughter, maybe a big wedding????
(I bought one of his 3.5" model 27's.)

I didn't get here until April 2001. So I guess I'm still just a noobie. 
I will say that thanks to this forum I have gained a whole lot of knowledge and spent a whole lot of money.

It's about balance...
True, but I have SAVED myself money using info from from people, too. Money that might have gone to a gunsmith went to...well, probably another gun, now that I think about it....I will say that thanks to this forum I have gained a whole lot of knowledge and spent a whole lot of money.

For me.......
One other thing I think we all have taken advantage of is completing wish lists, I made complete tool sets, got the papers and boxes for my saw's and went nutz buying sight adjusters and wands.

I cannot remember when I joined but do remember loosing post counts whenever that happened. I did buy a 625 3" from Chuck Lubbe before he passed but not sure exactly when it was in relation to joining.
