What a Nice Pair...!!!

All,

The insulting remark made in a previous post is a very good reason for me to question staying associated with this group.

I had a very long discussion with one of the "Grand Old Men" of Luger collecting yesterday. This gentleman has at least 12 pistols portrayed in Jan Still's books (He is in ALL of them)and he said he would not participate in the Forum for two reasons:

1, It appeared that many younger members wished to have their dealer-fed misinformation reinforced rather than dealing objectively and thoughtfully with facts, which would inevitably demonstrate they had been snookered;and,
2, The gratuitious rudness and lack of common civility that far too frequently flares up.

.I do not consider myself to be thin-skinned, but I do consider the remarks made in a previous post questioning my integrity and honesty to be insulting in the extreme and completely out of the blue.

I shall say no more on this subject except to suggest that there should possibly be a minimum age for forum participants.
