I have where possible. Currently not a member there to direct the crowd here.
I am not a member there. shadow might be. i have recruited where i can.
I did mention it post there once but may post again...
Just posted in the 10-Ring and 10mm Reloading sections to show people the invite.
I did post in the Bren Ten forum also... ;D
You guys rock.
I just put up an invite at Cast Boolits.
Thanks shadow, will stay around to see what 10MM fans have to say. Since I've discovered the "Ten",
other than 44 magnum, most other calibers, see little use!
I also extended an invite to the ogre of madogre.com. He is active on a couple of other forums I frequent, and we have shot together once. He has a pretty extensive online persona to maintain, but I hope to see him here.
Just found this because of it being posted on GT.

And me as well.
That's the reason I'm here.
Also, I posted news of this board on my home forum for CA gunners www.calguns.net (http://www.calguns.net) just now. I know there's a lot of 10mm fans over there that are just dying for a 10mm specific forum.
I hope others would do the same in their states of residence.
It's true we are spread out a pretty good bit. This may pull us all together.
I just put up a link on PAFOA.
I've been spreading the good word here and there, but mostly in the really real world.
I'll post on NorthwestFirearms

Ya got me on board Shadow !!! Thanks ;D
Also here from GT thanks to The_Shadow's post on the other forum. Much thanks to Grim for creating this site! Seems like a nice place to hang out, I'll be visiting often. Now I'm off to spread the word...
I'm also here from GT. Excellent site, Thank you!!
As 10mm enthusiast it shows that the spirt and drive is still very much alive....Enjoy the forum and make it the best by sharing your experiences, thoughts and ideas.
Best regards! ;D
Guilty.
Here from GT as well.

I saw this site posted on Glock Talk. Glad I joined , good place to find good info and experienced 10 mm owned. My EDC is a 29sf and occasionally my 20 sf for the last 5 years. Load for my 10s and will never switch to any other caliber.
Welcome Texas48. I own three 10's and a 45. The 45 was just acquired and is actually a base gun to become a 10:-). I know how you feel!

Glad to see you made it over! 8)
Yep. :)
Shadow turned me on to this site as well.
Hhmmm....No, but I found out about this forum through perusing GT's 10mm subforum. [I requested to be removed from their membership (& they complied...permanently banned) after they prohibited any threads about the M.O. in their political subforum. I kinda miss the place, but I just couldn't see a blanket prohibition of topic/thread in a "political forum."]--Patrice
I AM A MEMBER OVER THERE AND LEARNED OF "HERE" FROM THERE... ;D :) ;)
Still read and make some comments. Some good info to be had, but they are pretty big so quite active but I like the more 10mm specific topics this forum offers...

GT is a joke! This place is much better! There is a moderator over there I would love to MEET in person! He's a Nazi! He's a cop, and I feel bad for the public that has to interact with that bullying, power trippin' waste!
Kudos to this place for being so friendly, it's a joy to post things on here and get good advice from people who aren't miserable in real life!

I don't read all of GT, only the specific areas of interest to me. Who is this guy? There are "bad cops", we know, and it isn't tolerated by the majority. We police our own. Anyone who violates the oath (local or national) ain't worth their skin!
He's just a Nazi on the board. He gives me rule infractions if his POV differs from mine. I've been law enforcement, and my wife is a state probation/parole agent. What I have found is that most cops who are paid to uphold the law, don't know the law. They like to buffalo, and bully you into doing what best suits them. Why do you think "To protect and serve" is no longer on cruisers? Because they don't give a shit about the 2nd class civilians!
I had a bunch of stuff written down, but it's been my experience that if you say 1 thing that some dipshit ROBOCOP doesn't like, it turns into a big huge thing. I'm so not in the mood for a big huge "thing".
You may be a great cop, I don't know you. This I do know, I've known allot more douche bag cops, than good cops willing to do their job to the best of their ability day in and day out.
So far, this board has been one of the most polite, fun-loving, useful boards I've been a member of.

Just wanted to add this:
I'm talking about town/city police. I've not KNOWN one deputy or trooper I did not think was a profesional. Usually more laid back, and seem to take allot of pride in the job that they do.
It unfortunate you've been exposed to such a poor example. It isn't like that, hardly to any degree. Arrogant adam-henry's? Sure, some of them. Most mean well, but that's how they've been trained for 20 years (wrong, IMO). "Protect-Serve" is LAPD (still), Adam-12 (LAPD) and the movies. I'm retired now, and wouldn't tolerate such behavior from my troops. Perhaps this "mod" isn't such a bad guy, and uses the [anonymous] discussion board to vent what he can't at work? Not saying it's right, but maybe it's a reach out??? Who are we to say? Drew Peterson is a career cop. Now THAT's a guy with issues....
