  Did the second invoice include a link to test.tngunowners.com by any chance?

The test site shouldn't be sending those out but if you get one from it, ignore it.

Guys I am not going to mess around here, so listen up:   -- There exists NO retail operation that hasn't let someone down, pissed someone off, or otherwise dissatisfied at least one customer.   -- The Internet makes it entirely possible for one unhappy person to malign a business to financially damaging degrees, just because they have an axe to grind.   -- The retail public these days (you and ME) can be some of the most ungrateful, demanding, whiney-assed babies any of us have ever seen.  What seems like no big deal to 9/10 people may be the end of the damn world for that 10th guy and then he starts grinding that axe (See point 2 above).       When it comes to complaining about not being recognized with a smile, or thinking a gun was priced too high, or ammo was too scarce, or someone didn't stroke your fur the right way, really that is all SUBJECTIVE to the person doing the griping.  But for some reason, misery loves company on the Internet and people are all too happy to jump into the dog-pile and ruin the reputation of a business and hurt the finances of the PEOPLE working at, reliant upon, and owning those businesses.   I'm really just sick of it.   And more importantly, when it comes to a paying vendor who SPONSORS this site, I just am not going to allow it.   If you have a legitimate beef with a sponsor of TGO, take it up with them privately.  If you think a sponsor poses a significant risk to the physical or financial well-being of the TGO members at large, present your case to ME PRIVATELY and I will consider it and take action if it is warranted.   But if you're just sour that someone had an item you wanted, at a price you weren't willing to pay... put on your big boy pants and realize that life isn't fair and a business can charge whatever they want.  It's capitalism, baby!  It's what makes America awesome.         Jeez frickin Louise!!!   Can't even have a nice thread congratulating two of our local shops on becoming an even bigger operation to serve the local shooters.  We've gotta sit around and figure out how we can eat our own.   :rant:

  Tnx!  They are the Fuel Trophy 17x9.

I'll take a look once I'm on my laptop later this morning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My only problem with that is people who pick up MY brass when I'm shooting.  Told a guy today to leave my 45ACP brass alone.  :)

  True, but always save your brass.  At the rate things are going with our government, there may come a day when you can't buy new ammo at reasonable prices... or at all.

Saw this posted on Facebook earlier this evening: Everything Weapons has entered into a deal to buy The Outpost Armory and merge retail operations. That's huge! Please join me in wishing them both the best of success. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

BTW, this thread is worthless without pics. :D

  I call shennanigans!  :)   My 6.2L gets 12.5 no matter what I'm doing.  Are you driving downhill both directions in neutral or something?

I'm withholding judgement about the new Raptor until I see one and drive one.  I have no plans to trade ours at this point, but I have thought seriously lately about giving it the gift of forced induction.   :devil:

It's a well kept secret to the outside world that a lot of great folks congregate here.  :)

Welcome aboard.

I find it mildly ironic that the hiring event for a firearms manufacturer is being held in a venue wherein one could not possibly legally carry a firearm made by that manufacturer.  Or any other.  It's a curse I have for noticing things like this I guess.   Still, I'm glad to see Beretta coming to Tennessee and wish them and the job seekers who attend the best.  And safety.  :)

  I've been strangely charitable lately.

  Kwik probably is the slower brother.   Nice to see you around.  :)

Meh... we've been trolled by better.  This guy's outta here.

Absolutely horrible.  This is why I carry at church.  Always have, always will.

It's important to watch out for it.

  Correct.

I swear I'm coming back to this thread.  I've just got other stuff to take care of before I can settle in and really do it justice.

That's a very amazing and inspiring story.  God bless you.

Heck yeah.

I can't remember the last time I got a two-fer out of a thread like this.  I'm seriously going to let this run a while, have a beer, and come back to it later.  Like a fine cigar, this one just feels like something I should savor.
