Sisco Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Welcome from Wisconsin, our sweet corn is peaking right now so I can relate to the edible plants. A lot of knowledgeable people about builds on this forum, so you came to the right place. I am not one of them, but plenty of the members are.

ARTrooper Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Welcome Cletus, please tell me that is your real name. lol. Sisco, my wife got 8 dozen sweet corn for $10 because the farmers can't sell it fast enough so they have to get rid of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really put my personal info on the internet. Not because i am trying to hide anything but because there are some unsavory characters out there and i have had someone steal my identity before. I picked this name, and use it other places on the internet, because I am really a backwoods type and everyone I know, even my family, makes fun of me from time to time about my accent. So I thought what is the most bumpkin name I can think of. When I looked it up i learned it was greek and it means "glory." I knew right then my search was over.

Someone has been reading I laughed yesterday when I saw his response, and thought the same exact thing - "We got a reader here, men!" I almost posted that last night, but I didn't wanna scare Cletus off yet. Cletus, that's not a bad thing - it's a good thing. Most of the time, the people that show up and simply implode within "days-or-10-posts" is amazing... and you know they never saw that one before the implosion...

mrmackc Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hello from Comanche County Texas. I am an old school retired oil patch codger and gun shop owner that used to think the AR platform was for playtime. But as curiosity gave me an itch I bought a cheap DPMS LR308 and joined this bunch and started learning. I figured that by tearing it down and asking questions I could get educated. It has worked, mainly because of my experiences and the knowledge of these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
