TGO David

It's my pleasure, and thank you.

Shirts are planned, but I cannot claim credit for that particular logo. It is the work of a marketing firm who has been brought in to make sure that this event is produced to the highest level of quality possible. I'm glad you liked it.

It happens from time to time. Our server is pretty stable now but we do share a virtual server with god only knows how many other people, so if one of them has a site that gets hammered, it slows us all down.

Ok?

By all means.

There is a reason for this. Not to pee on the thread starter's parade, but there is a significant difference in the build quality of a Cannon safe that you find at Tractor Supply and the top-tier Cannon safe that you can get from a dealer. Things like fire rating, steel thickness, hinge design, lock design, internal barricades against locks and hinges being bypassed, etc. Failing to take this into consideration is like saying a $700 Chevette is a better bargain than a $21,000 Cadillac CTS-V. Both are Chevrolets, have four wheels, windows and an engine... but there is a huge difference. That said, a $700 safe is better than storing your guns in your closet and will at least slow down a fairly lazy thief and keep your guns reasonably safe for about 30 minutes in a typical house fire.

That's the spirit! To answer the question... We recommend using a photo hosting service such as Photobucket to host your pictures. Once you upload a picture to Photobucket, their service provides you with links beneath each picture that you can copy and paste into a post here to include your photo. Optionally, if you know what the URL of one of your photos is elsewhere on the Internet, you can just click the Insert Image button in the message editor and paste the URL into the resulting pop-up. Do be careful when hot-linking from sites that you don't own or have an account on, however, because sometimes the owner of those sites will do a bit of trickery and cause their web server to insert nasty pictures instead of whatever it was you thought you were posting. Which, again, is why I recommend Photobucket. They are a legitimate photo hosting service and don't do anything like that.

Regrettably, I have other commitments this weekend with family from out of town. Sorry.

Still too early to say. We just got the green light to start accepting vendor reservations so I anticipate being able to list vendors starting the first week of October. That said, interest from vendors has been very high so far. We've got a sheet full of people who have verbally committed.

I'm not following... are you unable to see the years when you browse it? If not, a screen shot might help me figure out what's going on.

Thanks for sharing this. I've got a box in my safe that I haven't bothered carrying in anything but my BUG yet. I guess I always used the thought process that by the time I got down to using my backup, anything coming out of the barrel was better than a sharp pointy stick. Good to know it's capable of doing more than said stick.

Mid-South Guns And Gear Expo - Mid-South Guns And Gear Expo Take a look, do some reading and then ask whatever questions you have. As Nightrunner said, we haven't done it yet. December 12th - 13th is our first weekend, but it's going to ROCK.

MTAC by Comp-Tac and also a Raven Concealment "Phantom" outside the waistband.

Assault is the first word that came to my mind. I know for a fact that I'd have ended up on top of the little bastard that threw the ball and dragged him straight to the store office and had them detain him while I called the police. You throw a baseball at me, I'm not going to shoot you but by the time I get done with your ass, you're probably going to wish I had.

You guys have fun! September has just been an insanely busy month for me and I doubt seriously that we'll be able to make this.

Thanks for the kind words. I use GlockTalk every great once in a while and only to search and run.

Also known as the Watch TGO David Bust His Ass and Crush His Sternum With A Kettle Bell exercise.

There's a modification for that. I'll see if I can find it again.

If you have a Target or Super Target near you, the sporting goods department sells light weight kettle bells.

Eddie! Man, seeing you on here today lifted my spirits. I hope you're doing well.

Thanks. It was a neat little trick that I saw on another forum and immediately knew it would be useful for us here too.

I'm adding this new thread (with a new poll) because we now have official flyers and more information is forthcoming in the next week or so regarding the lineup of who will be attending. As that information is confirmed, I will be adding it to the first post in this thread and then bumping the thread with an indication pointing back to Post #1. If you all wouldn't mind voting again to RSVP, it would be appreciated by those who will be preparing food for the day I'm sure.

I'm wary of any company that produces a shoddy product and then suddenly changes their name and/or the name of the product. It always seems like them trying to reinvent their reputation through shady means.
