Lets get back to talking about positive things like ways to improve our shooting and get away from complaining about non-gun things. If people want to tell jokes and complain about non-gun things, they should go to social websites designed for complainers.
Where are our moderators to keep this website on subject? The subject being, improving our AR-10 experiences.
Your Mods have been here the whole time Justme and yes, this probably does seem new and odd and "out of place" here as our site has certainly been all about our rifles for a very long time.
However, due to recent changes, events, new personnel and decisions from management, it has been discussed and agreed upon that the "10MOA" area should be used for it's original purpose and that is to "lighten things up a bit".
My philosophy is simply that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy and although yes, we DO agree that we talk about rifles and improving our techniques and info about arms here, we also need to do what all soldiers, cops, fireman and all other vocations of men ALSO do and that is learn to laugh and relax a little bit.
When I mention soldiers, cops and firemen, I DO this because I have been all of those things with 35 years as a volunteer fireman in my community. When doing ANY of them, it was not all about just seriousness because had it been, we would all either lose or WOULD have lost our minds with the things we were involved in.
Our site should be about discussing our favorite weapons AND about building comradery and learning to laugh a little bit about the things we find humorous.
I have no face book account, no twitty account, no my space, no nothing and prefer to laugh and joke with the men I share common interests with. These men being the men of AR10.com.
I am proud to be a member here and to share the site with you and sincerely hope you can see what we are hoping to do and either share in the discussions within the 10MOA area or, exercise your rights as an American to just skip them over and stay within the informational area where little or no off topic discussions take place. (We do TRY to keep the "human" side out of the serious threads although it seems to run over once in a while.)
As a proud member of this site (and a mod :wave: ) I am happy to say that it is MUCH easier to spend time here when people are talking about AR10s AND about other issues as well since my life NEEDS some humor and "off topic" discussions more than you know and I prefer to have it with men who understand MY tastes in weapons, fellow soldier, cops and other vocations where "arms" are commonly used and discussed.
Thank you for your input and I sincerely do hope you choose to take part within threads posted within the 10MOA area however, if you choose not to, please continue enjoying the site and sharing info as you see fit within the informative threads.
If you do NOT choose to take part in the 10MOA threads please make every effort to NOT bash those who do.
Respectfully
Sharkey
