I keep waiting for Jose to darken our new doorstep. If that happens, we'll definitely have to call in Aesop to deal with him.

Hello;

I'm trying to not leave too much of an internet paper trail. Makes it easier to take over the Democratic party if they don't know what I'm up to. :twisted: Just kidding only serious.

I found this site from reading Chris's blog and I'm sure he can track me back if he cares to. Especially as often as I read it.

I sent him an email when we relaunched. I havent heard back from him.
Last time I saw anything posted by him was over at the 6.5 Grendel forums.

I see I've been remiss about introducing myself.

I'm an "old-time" member of this forum's (two or is it three?) predecessors. I am generally interested in all things that go "bang".

I have a small collection of Swiss-Army surplus rifles, a smattering of handguns and a few specialised hunting arms. My brother said of my armoury recently, "just whose army are you equipping, then?", so I suppose ideas of what constitutes a "small collection" are relative. When I can find the time, I even manage to shoot some of them. Again, time permiting, I like to load my own ammunition.

As I live in Europe, I tend to have an "overseas" view of some forum topics, which can get me into trouble occasionally. Was vom Hofe a greater wildcatter than P.O. Ackley, or is 7x64 Brenneke a better hunting round than .270 Winchester? I also occasionally beg for help from forum members in North America, when it comes to finding obsure items of gunny paraphernalia at reasonable prices, so be warned...

Thanks to CC, Chris and the crew for making the new Forum happen. It feels home-y already.

Happy days!

Hello again, Denis!

Seems like we've got most everyone from the Old Forum.

Hi, James! Now we can get together and reminisce about the "old country"... :-)

Indeed, we seem to have got a lot of the regulars. Now, who's still missing, and who's just hiding behind a new handle? (Eugene, that would be you...) Lots of nice new people, too. Happy days.

I think we're missing another of our Euro-Regulars (AKA the Fifth Coloumn): Jwenting.

I don't know how, but jwenting is still posting over at TOS and apparently doesn't know about us or hasn't cared to grace us with his presence. Unless he's doing so with a different user name.
