Do we have to stress out while talking about guns? It really isn't nice to read everyone's ego striken posts.

I'm not a long time member, and won't be if this is how this place works.

That was a rather brusk reply, why so curt?

My wife spends some time in a forum about kittens, I can get you the address if you like. Mostly laidies there, very little testosterone.

I prefer the term "testosterone laden spirited discussions"...

We all really get along pretty well here in general. Some members are a bit more opinionated than others, but MOST of those with strong opinions are speaking from a place of experience, not just bravado.

MP-Pistol and M4Carbine both have some FANTASTIC information smattered with a good dose of bickering and name calling. At least here it's not brand-vs-brand.

Some of us old farts have prostate problems, get irritated real easy and have to go often. That aside when someone posts something you dont like just ask yourself if what is said fits you. If not dont worry about it. If it does prepare yourself. Just dont always expect to get in the last word.
Also get a few posts in before telling us how great and smart you are. We will figure it out on our own.

Have a good day all.

But in all seriousness.. why should ones post count matter? so what if someone has 5, 300, or 3000 posts.. it shouldn't matter. if someones right, they're right, if they're wrong, it'll surly be pointed out! ..and dont call me Shirley!

Isn't that like "the pot calling the kettle black" ?????? You seem to have an attitude too.
