Title: Howdy y'all. I'm new in town.
Post by: Dante on December 08, 2019, 10:57:47 PM
First of, thanks for a wealth of information I've already picked up from your site.  As the rule calls for introductions before demands -er- requests,
allow me to introduce myself.  I'm phoning it in from Dallas, TX. 

For anyone unaware, Ft. Worth is actually where the West begins.  Dallas is where the East petered out.

In any case, I'm here because I find myself in possession of a handful of shiny but not quite new Chinese SKS rifles.  I'll be entering their vitals into the online survey.
Afterwards, fair warning, I may pester you relentlessly for more insights and details to know what I've gotten into.

Thanks in advance,

D

Glad to have you join us, Dante! If I remember correctly, Texas has one of the highest numbers of board members so you'll be right at home here. This is a great place for interest in the SKS and all sorts of firearms. Great people and lots of information. Post up pics of your various SKS's. We love to see new collections of one or a hundred. It NEVER gets old.

Welcome from Kentucky, Dante, where the South peters out (though there are some places in Florence, KY that don't have Sweet Tee and Cincinnati decided to park their Airport thereabouts).  Lots of SKS info here and they even made spots for about anything else ya want to show (brag) about.  Cheers, Bruce.

Welcome to the boards from your neighbor to the west (NM) Dante.  Introductions are not mandatory here, but I'm glad you posted and broke the ice.  We'd be happy to take a look at anything you want to post.  Members like you routinely bring hidden gems to the table that everyone gets to ooh and ahh over.

Welcome aboard!  thumb1

Will do.  Is that an Operation Mindcrime logo in your profile?  Outstanding!

Welcome from California, where the west is..., well..., I don't know how to put it but I'll try!

Where you are more likely to step in people poop than dog poop!
Where it is easier to get a syringe than a straw.
Where you pay twice as much for gas but have the most pot holes!
Where you...! 

I wont cry you a river, anyway welcome.

Welcome from the dry eastern side of Washington. I was born in Dallas, a fact I'm reminded of whenever I fill out another 4473.

Boy, it's always great to know that however "less enlightened" your locale may be, it ain't always as bad as you thought chuckles1

JorgeSKS, we're getting a lot of your Coast here and y'all are welcome.  'Course, some of the ideals are croppin' up here, too.  But we still rate a solid "F" with the Brady Foundation dance2.  Cheers, Bruce.
