Is this right outside of Philly???????

Dead · May 4, 2001, 08:46 AM

Ouch, looks like I am NOT making it there, as it is about 100 miles out of my way to get there (each way).

Tall Man · May 7, 2001, 03:39 PM

Son, I may have seen you...

are you a short fellow that was wearing a bandanna on his head, or were you this individual's taller friend?

I didn't want to seem presumptious and introduce myself, if it would have been a case of mistaken identity.

Tall Man

ArmySon · May 7, 2001, 08:41 PM

Yep. That was I! Bandana and Hawaiian shirt on

The taller fellow with glasses was my buddy Ross (ROSANGHAL). You should've said hi!

Tall Man · May 8, 2001, 12:09 PM

I recognized you from your pics on Trop's website, and from your articulate conversation with your friend about some gun issue.

I did shadow you a bit, wondering if I should say hello...

Next time I'm at Trop and you're there, I'll introduce myself.

Tall Man

P.S. - What can you tell me about the Romanian AK that sits next to the shotguns in the rack behind the pistol counter? My curiousity is piqued. Thanks.

ROSANGHAL · May 8, 2001, 03:14 PM

Hi Tall Man

Wish you would have introduced yourself. Son and I were wondering how many other forum members where there. We just didn't know anyones faces. It would have been nice to put a face to forum name.

You probably overheard us talking about the checkering we were eyeing up on a Garthwaite custom 1911 we found while walking around.

You pick up anything nice?

If I was wearing glasses when you saw us it was only to make a fasion statement

Had a good time there, unfortunately, I walked out of there emty handed! I must be slipping. My wife wondered if I was feeling ok when I came home without anything hidden under my shirt or hidden in the back of the vehicle

Well, I did finally find some 9mm Luger ammunition in my preferred 124 grain (American Eagle.) I seem to purchase my ammo from the same fellow, who is at EVERY central PA gun show, just as I am!

PMC and Winchester are nice for plinking, too, but they are just 115 grain. I've been advised on numerous occasions that 115 grain is really the lower threshold of what I should be feeding my Glock 19. I just feel more comfortable feeding Greta a round that has a few more nutrients in it.

["Greta??" (snicker snicker) "Looky - that Tall Man fellow names his guns! Har har!"]

Yea, well I'm sure some folks reading this post have assigned de facto anthropomorphic properties to certain objects in their possession, too.

I also purchased the requisite MRE - Chicken w/noodles and vegatables this time. These things are still a novelty to me, and for $3.00 you just get so many goodies!

Maybe I'll see you & Son at the next show...I believe it's at Sports City in Harrisburg in July.

Incorrect.

It will in fact occur at the York Blast, an indoor soccer arena, on 28/29 July. On Interstate 83, get off at exit 11/Emigsville, and follow the signs.
