    First, I have no idea what trolls and trolling are.
    Second, I'm not sure if any of that was directected at me personally? If so, please explain what I said that was wrong so that I may not do the same in the future, please?

    A Troll Post is one that is specifically directed at another Poster, that is designed to illicit an "Over the Top" Response from that Poster, or in some cases it is directed at a Site, and designed to cause a MASSIVE Response by the members of that Site... and usually the "Troll" disappears right after the Posting, only to pop up again after things cool down.... We have had a few around the Monkey Tree, in the Past.... One of the Most Notable was/is "Gun Kid" He has been Banned numerous Times, but always sneaks back in with a New User Name. He is found out in Minutes, because he can't get passed his "Schtick" and it is Always the Same. Goggle "Tactical WheelBarrow" for samples.... ..... Never Fear, @Snake_Doctor ..... If I have something to say to you, it will be one on one, and in a PM.... and as far as I have seen, You have been a Perfect Gentleman....

    Ok, thanks trapper

    Got it BTpost. Thought you were the PM type. I had thought my post of $50 per case had incited some issue or violated a rule. Thanks for clearing up the definition of trolls and trolling.
    I apologize for any confusion or offenses I may have caused.

    Likewise, did not mean to hurt anyone's feelings or play cut throat to anyone's business. Just stated what I had found. Last I bought was less than that. Another bud nearby sells his for $75 per case and have seen them go as high as $90. Bargains are hard to find and when they occur I like to pick them up---when funds are available. Retirement has put a "crimp" on my bargain shopping--lol.

    Luckily my guy can find just about anything I need. And he doesn't try to get a pound of flesh for it. Last xmas he donated the used boots, blankets, sleeping bags etc we passed out to the homeless. The manager at Wal-Mart found us loading up two carts of socks and donated them to the cause. Blue is forever having him find oddball and rare guns, like a Sokolovsky .45, or a Pasadena Automag.

    I checked tactical wheelbarrow. He seems like a real special boy. Insteadf of relying on names when you ban someone have you considered checking the IP addy?

    Oh, he is tricky, that one... uses different IP Addresses, and moves around a lot... In and out of the GrayBar Hotel, for various Issues.... He like us a lot.... and we just have fun with him, for a few hours, and then He gets Banned, again..... All in good fun....

    LOL, Gunkid is an "icon" on the web. Lots of jokes about him and his antics.

    Quit talking trash on Gunkid. If we could all get past our pride, we would be able to admit how much we have learned from him over the years. Without him, I would still have all those unnecessary firearms instead of the one superior .22 lr.

    think a lot of folks have taken his posts to heart... that's why ammo is so high....

    If anyone has a means of getting a message to Gunkid, tell him I miss him. Always good for a bunch of laughs.
