SH - What You Remember from the Past?

[Arc Light]

I remember before everyone fell in love with Vortex (and now Athlon), there was only one scope to buy if you wanted to be cool: USO.

US Optics was the cat's ass on the Hide once upon a time. It was THE scope to be seen with on a Friday night. Panties dropped in the mere presence of a USO scope. "Vortex" was still just a meteorological term 10 years ago.

Megacab.
Didn't he have the avatar with the dog humping the teddy bear?
Almost as good as our propane loving Washingtonian with the poop avatar.

Who could forget the mighty "hubble", with all it's flaws, that was the envy of town.

Don't forget the propane accessories. They need luvin', too.

While looking at this. I realized that Maggies Bar and Grill has post that go back to Sept 2012. Good times.

 

[dogman]

Shout Box was awesome. The original wives and girlfriends thread was the best thing going on the internet at one point. There were some great group buys. The knowledge base was first class.

 

[Bender]

Lots of people are ghosting Facebook. I know, I did.

I can remember when Frank was only 3 feet tall.

Hi,
I think he might have had that avatar at on time then it changed to his megacab picture. He was from MA or some Northeastern Yankville town.

It was great to sit back and watch people attempt to argue with "Sawman" when he first joined...all the way until someone posted a link to his bio lolol.

Kinda like when people would want to argue military applications of 50BMG rifle with Reichert or Weiler......

And who can forget the Badlands Tactical thread......

Sincerely,
Theis

Ya, miss old Mike D. He sure had a nack for pissing off Frank.

Are any of these old threads available via search, or did they go to a landfill on a hard drive ?

Don't know, but I remember them being interesting to say the least.
I remember when Mike D.said he liked to hunt an be hunted. The hunting him part, started a shit storm that took awhile to blow over. He never recovered from that one very well. Then it was right after than, he openly pissed in Franks plate for the last time. Mike was a good guy but like Larry did not know when to hold back, LOL.

Mike D also pissed Bobby off enough that it ended his participation at their place. Miss Steve Suttles too.

[Dirty D]

I remember there being a 5 shot group rule and 2 3 and 4 shot groups were banned.

We should go back to those days

I pointed that out a few times and people lost their shit over it, that one needs to be enforced again.

 

[Deleted member 10043]

People don't post groups any more. I like one shot groups myself.

 

[deersniper]

I shot a .07" 3 shot group sighting in one of my GAPS. Herp derp I got a .1" rifle.

(5) 5 shot groups start to tell you something about a rifle. Doesn't .mil specify 20 shots at one target or something ?

 

[RedRyder]

Frank once said 3 shots tests the rifle but 5 shots test the shooter.

 

[ColinNSX]

This thread has been a walk down memory lane. I've been a lurker for a very long time, usually popping up to by a TacOps rifle or three, but some of the names and threads mentioned bring back some hilarious memories form 10-15 YEARS ago.

Holy shit, 10-15 YEARS ago. WTF.

Very glad to see the move away from Scout. Still very sad to see the loss of what once was...

And I'm really impressed with the forward thinking "snowflake" target. Sort of ironic.

Thought him an Suttles were tight? I could see a riff building between him an Bobby though, much like KG's an someone else, to remain unknown.

BTW the spray deal came in an works good, did a tree at 20" to test.

 

[Maser]

And then of course there was this annoying faggot.

 

[JFComfort]

Shankster??...miss him

Shankster was hilarious and the stuff that guy would dig up!

I remember “use the search feature” or “google it” came up a lot. I liked BS’ing in the shout box.

you could google "fat women having sex" and the fist thing that would come up was shankster doin' one of his hefties on snipershide

Funny thing was, he supposedly lived near me in N. Idaho. Never did get to meet him in person...maybe a good thing?

I have a hunch it would have been interesting either way it went! lol

 

[shootist2004]

Circles or football's? Remember the mil-dot master? 3 shots dont make a group (LL)

 

[MtnCreek]

Rifles getting cock and balls drawn on them and the dickflage rifle. I remember thinking wtf kind of degenerates am I associating with...

Guy that posted his rifle pic as often as possible (his contribution to the hide) then posted a bitch thread because someone turned his turret at the range while he wasn't looking. He was pissed that he'd have to re-sight it... Didn't have a clue about slipping the scales. I'm sure it was someone here that knew that rifle from all the pics and had a little fun with him.

 

[mavrick10_2000]

I seem to remember a user called "Nobody" - posted much about hunting Alaska and long range shooting. He was wildly entertaining but seemed to have a penchant for getting himself banned on the regular.

Larry was usually good for a laugh, or a ban....LOL Miss the shoutbox and Torf. Not sure if TusconDave, BigJoe, ARP, SenderoMan or TG are still actually around.

That was an EPIC VJJ thread.

Welp... don’t keep us waiting......

I needed to teach you about patience, so I figured 5 years was a good amount of time. I didn’t marry Gecko45. Unfortunately I married a super hot Brazilian chick.

Master level restraint I see. Post Brazilian boobs or it never happened.

You don’t marry a Brazilian for the boobs. You do it for the butt.

 

[Maggot]

Check.

If you want fine tits and beautiful faces go south to Argentina where they have some good northern European genetics bred in.

Doesn’t the butt come with a large helping of “batshit crazy” ?

Being an adult sucks big floppy donkey dicks.

I don’t despise the 35 year old basement dwellers. I envy them. It would be cool if my mom would bring in a tray of hot pizza rolls right now.
