as45-70 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hey! I was gone for many moons on the other site but recently renewed my interest in firearms. This looks a fresh start for my fresh start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeytoes Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hello everyone. I saw Eric's post on GT today. I've been a member there for somewhere around 15 years. While I wasn't that active, I've always found it to be a great resource and a good place to interact with (mostly) like-minded people. I didn't realize the turn that things had taken but I did notice some differences in the "feel" of the place. Glad to see that Eric has started a new forum. Thank you for all you do, Eric. turkeytoes, aka Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhi1895 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Just a quick hello to everyone. I am much more of a lurker than a poster. But I sure do enjoy being here. Thank, MHI1895 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be something that will happen as soon as the site is developing some decent traffic. Thanks for your interest and your participation. Without all of you, I am talking to myself and that is just creepy and sad. That does beg the question - how many of these screen names are really Eric in disguise? Are Rabbi and Eric the same person for that matter? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some of his family and he knows me and my wife. Eric's stepping down post is getting close to 40,000 views and there were already hundreds of members here. The traffic is all legitimate. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is presumed that Rabbi is member #2 at the latest. So if Sugartoes was taken, it must have indeed been taken by the BGH himself!

I'm going to use this opportunity to change my screen name to "commbloc74" so it matches my Instagram handle. And before anyone asks, no, I'm not a commie. I just really like my AK-74.

MAG40 Student Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hi Everyone, Having joined GT just a couple years ago, I was ignorant of much of its backstory, except what I could glean from occasional asides and remarks by more experienced GT members. There certainly was a lingering sense that GT had become less than what it once had been. In any event, I've just signed-up and look forward to becoming a regular at TBS. Congratulations, Eric, and the very best of luck with TBS! I look forward to making the journey with you and your legions of fans. Best to all. Stay safe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZ4D Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hello everyone. I joined TBS just the other day, after reading Eric's post about his exit from GT. I live in NC, travel the state a good deal for work and am originally from Texas. I moved to NC about 2001 and love it. My bride is from NC and she is how I came to settle here. I do miss Texas from the standpoint of while there, I had much more space to hunt and just shoot my weapons, but no complaints, as there are options here in NC as well. My profession is Risk Management and I have been in that line of work for 40 years as of this September. Although I have several concealable, semi-auto 9mm pistols, I tend to favor carrying the J-Frame S&W revolvers most of the time, as I wear a sports jacket, slacks, tie, etc. nearly every day and the five-shot revolvers are easier for me to hide comfortably. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Somm Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Never knew GT was sold in the first place, no wonder it seemed like a 'stranger' when I visited last week! Glad you're giving things another go Eric, as I too found a few life long friends during my stay at GT! ...Now where is the "Caturday" thread?!

Sharp Stick Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Hi, I've just arrived this morning. Was a long time lurker over at GT but never joined or posted. I liked the way GT was in the early days and saw some changes that I did not care for. When it was sold, I wondered what would become of it. I've learned a lot from many of the GTers over the years and was glad to see that there was another option that could be explored so I thought I would come here try to make a positive contribution. Not much of a poster, but I will chime in from time to time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z71bill Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 GT was down again this morning- so I decided to give this place a try. I was hard to decide if I should use the same screen name - but laziness won out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Batman was REALLY worried about getting kicked in the nuts. And we'll let Rabbi explain the nipples on his costume.
