    When people think that accuracy (well precision rather) is the main or only way to judge the quality of a firearm.
    Why do you think that people pay out the nose for a mint condition per 64 model 70??! Odds are it won't group better then any bottom barrel bolt action today.

    You do understand that the board of directors or whoever runs the ranges you go to, generally ask all members to enforce the range rules, kind of good citizenship.

    Ever ask think they have those rules?

    Most of us aren't around on Monday morning when some poor board member is out picking up all the trash that folks left when having that fun day at the range, or to field the complaints about club members unsafe behavior.

    Speaking of that, have you noticed the rise of people claiming to have been a "SEAL" or "SFOD-D" lately? They actually have a forum dedicated to exposing these people. There was a guy in his late 20's and he and his friends dressed up like Seals complete with beards, shemaghs, Oakley's, helmets with headsets and custom airsoft guns and had a few pictures taken of them in South West Texas-which looks like parts of Afghanistan. They had a couple of Latinos or Mexicans dress up like Afghan's posing with AK's and they passed these photos around posing as Seals from Seal team 4- needless to say, this guy was busted and exposed and members of the SF community didn't take his Seal claims lightly. They apparently tried to file a lawsuit against him.

    For God's sake get a life man.

    You do understand that this thread is for members to post THEIR pet peeves whatever they may be. Not to debate whether they are correct or why you don't agree with them.

    You know nothing about my range, rules or the Nazis I speak of. I've been a member for 26 years and shooting for over 45 years. I know all the rules and had input on some of them.
    I don't need some wannabe who isn't an RO standing behind me for 30 min watching my every move waiting for me to do something wrong. That is not an enjoyable experience.

    In 17 pages of peeves as far as I can tell you are the only one to lecture someone about their peeve. Read the peeve, if you don't like it click and go on. You are not my dad and I don't want your opinion. Capiche?

    You know, you are kind of right. Sorry 'bout that. The Fireclean thread kind of soured me on you, mia culpa.

    The get a life thing though, after your stuff during the Fireclean thread?
