The small amount of money (over 200 dollars) that you and I spend on training and HCPs, is nothing close to the 2 mil that the shop owner may have to pay in court settlements and lawyer fee's if another customer is accidently shot by some yoyo! "Postings" are there for reasons. The word "Legal" is NOT spelled "S-M-A-R-T". I think a "mental evaluation" should be a part of the HCP process. I only say that because I've met a few folks who were "Legal", but the jelly done fell off their peanut butter sandwich! Another way to look at it is, unless the shop owner knows you, how does he or she know that you are "legal", and not just another punk with a gun? (take no offense)...So before we all start hoot'n and holler'n about rights and "proper signage"....just take a moment and put yourself into the business owners shoes. Better yet, go to your local gunshop and "Volunteer" to help out for the day. Sweep floors, wait on customers, "show" guns to customers, deal with the day to day doings with a gun shop (or any business for that matter). Please report back to all of us on how many "gun barrels" got pointed at your face because someone doesn't know "gun safety"....let us know about the guy standing over on the holster isle waving a loaded handgun around trying to find the "right" pancake. Also let us know how many times you have to push a "legal" handgun away from your face, when the occassional customer has a question about his "glow in the dark" sights. Need I keep going? Your "other" customers will appreciate your efforts in keeping them "safe" in your store.... Dave

I was wade fishing the Clinch River this morning as a guest of Timesteppers. Didn't notice the heat a'tall!

Sir, it is all good with me. My misunderstanding.....my apologies indeed. Have a good evening sir... Dave

Now we all know why some businesses "POST"!!!

If ALL else fails....dial 911 !!!!!

Don in his undies.....oh da**..... I hope the "Mods" don't flag us.... Give me a bit, and I'll get some loaded on here... Dave

Sorry you had to leave. I didn't know you had...until someone told me. I hope all is well for you my friend!

That's the "right" attitude to have sir! Bless you for abiding by their wishes.

Not like it was a 103 degrees outside, and we needed a "deer shawl" to keep warm!!!

OK...I will officially take it as good humor...My Bad... I kinda like that.. PROFIT WD-40!!!!! Kinda has a ring to it! Good day to all!!! Dave

Well....how did it go? We went over and waded the icy waters of the Clinch River! TS is an awesome guide! How did he like the "flintlock"? When your ready to tan his deer hide...let me know. PM me, and I'll shoot you my phone number.

Are we gonna get to see "a fight" buddy? I feel the same way as you do. When I was at your place this weekend...I watched every single step I made.....just the way it is! lol

You didn't make the post did you?

I agree with you. However, my "profit margine" hasn't changed, so I don't know if they ever came back or not. A TRUE customer WILL ALWAYS come back....just saying....

I'm NOT a PROPHET!!!! Sir; If my SIGN reads..."NO GUNS ALLOWED"......What's illegal about that? Please explain? And sir, If you're going to ATTACK me by "name calling" "PROPHET WD-40"....GET A LIFE!!!! I just COULDN"T RESIST.....you are a PRIME EXAMPLE of why I've been backing off the board posting...go sit in the A/C and give it a break!!!

I agree with the both of you, but I GUARANTEE....someone is going to come on here and say that those SIGNS are not PROPER LANGUAGE to the laws... My take on the subject is, NO MEANS NO. Honor their wishes...I don't want anyone accidentily shot in my shop either!

I should have left you that pack of smoked wild hog sausage I brought....

Folks, after camping at "Spots", a morning of wade fishing the Clinch River and catching my FIRST trout, and a long drive home, I only have one word to say for this weekend....AWESOME! I can truly say that I have now officially met the FINEST people in the world. Hands down!!! Those that endured the heat and listened to my boring history lessons and shot the ol' flintlock...was well rewarded with gifts and I can't wait to do it again! I hope everyone enjoyed themselves as much as I did. Thanks to all...nice meeting each and everyone of you! Dave

Last I heard ya'll was "fishing" for supper...how did that go?

Proper identification is the key!

I get mine at hobby lobby. Cumberland General Store used to sell it too, but not sure if they do anymore. This last block I bought at Hobby Lobby was $14.99 Dave

Happy Birthday Dol!!!

I'm not that technologically advanced....I can only guess as to how far out I am... I'll give you a call though.

That's my fish'n hole!!!

Don't make his head swell.....
