Phil We`ve all learned a great deal from that info on " The air gun forum" - thank you for your respect to us all. Instead of intrusion, field craft and accuracy, " FAR out ways" distance and power. When it comes to a " True" hunting man. Quote Link to post

philpot 5,000 Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Lighten up Mark. I am not disrespecting your thread, conversations do pop up from time to time and in this situation, three of us had thoughts which came to mind. You may not like me or the guns I use but just enjoy the forum for what it is, a group of friends chatting about shooting and if I or others stray away from the title, it does NOT mean there is a lack of respect to the OP.

PHIL I`ve never had a problem with you or any of your guns Phil,- if I did,- you would know . I quite agree with all you have written above but to " continue" to overwrite on peoples posts, ( I feel) is rude. Quite like interrupting / butting into a flowing conversation with a completely different subject and always the same subject, regardless of what people are talking about. To do it once - ok. To do it twice, - annoying. To continue to do it, regardless, - I find is rude. Will this change anything ? I doubt it. Quote Link to post
philpot 5,000 Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Sorry Mark, I have clearly offended you in this matter which I assure you was never my intention. Phil 1 Quote Link to post

walshie 2,804 Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Bottom line is this isn't "the airgun forum". It's a sub-section of the Hunting Life and invariably hunting will be discussed at some stage. Quote Link to post
