tightloop Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Bill I would never doubt anyone who would cut their birthday cake with a Samuri sword. BrianH, yes I am older than dirt. I shot IPSC when there were no classes and everyone shot heads up, and a full race gun had Bomar sights, and a Swenson ambi safety and a trigger job.

SiG Lady Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 (sorry for the indulgent thread drift, there...) I still think the 1975 match was in Zurich. Not that it makes any difference--I've withdrawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tightloop Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Go ahead and tell Bill Nesbitt it wasn't Raul Walters either, I'm almost positive it wasn't him. Heck, Benos, I tried to gather some other names with my thread on other great shooters who never won the US or world shoot, but the only one who took me up on the challenge was Bill. I guess he and I are the only ones old enough to remember those ancient shooters!!! (Edited by tightloop at 4:42 pm on Jan. 14, 2003) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgary Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 OK, so [newbie question]... what's the etiquette here? If I have parts of the answer that I think are right... is it fair game to glom parts from other people's answers and re-submit, or... is that reprehensible behavior?

benos Posted January 15, 2003 Author Share Posted January 15, 2003 bgary, "is it fair game to glom parts from other people's answers and re-submit," Oh, that's totally acceptable around these folks. Two points to consider - 1) If you know part of the answer and want to wait, glean, and then post the entire correct answer, that's your business. 2) If you feel like posting what you know and let the victory fall where it may, that's up to you as well.
