Administrators Eric Posted July 1, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted July 1, 2018 I am working on about two hours sleep today and I am feeling frazzled. I am going to try to get a decent night's sleep tonight and will roll up my sleeves and dive into things tomorrow. Thanks again to everyone who has posted so many warm, supportive comments. It has meant so much to me. Eric 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSX42 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I read your post over at GT and decided to join here. Expressing my 2nd Amendment feelings on a gun forum owned by Canadians just doesn't feel right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfost11 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 As I said over there, thank you. That website turned out to be more to me than I could have ever imagined after buying my first Glock. Best wishes and I'm looking forward to seeing this new endeavor grow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budqueiser Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 GT is a great achievement. Too bad it went the wrong direction. You showed courage by doing what was the right thing. I’ll try to hang around here more often now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northcountry Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Eric as someone above said thanks for the crumbs as i have not been visiting GT much any more in the last few years, but look forward to hanging around over here and offer encouragement. Wishing you all the success in the world on your new endeavor. NC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyofforty Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Thanks, Eric. I didn't realize it was posted here. Very moving piece you wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komatsu61 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I used to be anti-Glock (for no good reason) until I came across GT. Then I joined and learned and long story short, I own a couple. I think Glock owes Eric a bit of gratitude as I'm sure he's responsible for thousands of Glocks sold. Great work! I'm a member here now and I hope to learn more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramjet38 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 It's funny that GT has always been my one and only public forum that I regularly attend, and now I have this website bookmarked right next to GT and am going back and forth to see what the latest is for today. I'm just wondering if someday I start to drift from one to the other. The Bore Site seems to be homey. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lassen Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I feel for ya, Eric... you built a wonderful thing over there, and even tho it's a ghost of its former self, to some of us it's still your legacy, and you should be honored for what you did. Actually, it's not bad (I decided to poke my nose in after your announcement), but you're right... it's just not the same. And considering the way they treated it's founder... I can't say that I blame you. Ya gotta be true to yourself, and not let the bastages grind you to dust. I know it hurts, but you did the right thing. Looking forward to great things here. I know I'll find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just wondering if someday I start to drift from one to the other. The Bore Site seems to be homey. I think many people settle into one place per "interest", over time. I prefer forums. If you pick a good forum for each interest, you also get the benefit of each others "social, political, news, etc." sub-forum overlap as well. This place will grow fast now that everyone from GT knows. Until then I'll probably do rock paper scissors, between the two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F350 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I'm sure it was like having to throw a wayward child out the door; the love remains. I was getting fed up with the changes and was contemplating bailing out any way; was just looking for another place to call home and would like to thank you for providing the other home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tslex Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Eric, I read your post after getting an email alert and I immediately signed up and logged on here. I was a GT member from August 2002, much less active in the past five years or so than for the first 11. But I want to honor the tremendous contribution you have made to the shooting community. If numbers are going to mean anything to your success here -- and I suspect they do -- I want to be sure to add my name to what will certainly be a fast-growing list. Here's to your next chapter.

The Hawk Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 As a long time member of GT, I should have thanked you many times for your hard work and long hours you put in to make GT a fun, interesting, informative, entertaining, etc. web site. I wish you the absolute best of luck in this new endeavor. I am looking forward to many more years of laughter, etc. with this new web site. Good luck. I know it will be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StratCatGotGat Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Eric, kudos and the best of luck on this latest effort. I have no doubt that this forum will have the same atmosphere as did your original Glocktalk, from the early 2000s. You built the best firearms forum on the internet once and you'll do it again! Thanks so much, Eric. -A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Deplorable Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Followed you here from GT. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. As GY SGT C.R. Bounds, USMC often told me, "LT, it can't be good if it's easy." I wish you only the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
