Speaking of members MIA....
When was the last time that Jasper, or Scout5 checked in?

I lurked for probably 11-12 years before joining/commenting. Primarily because I did not have an E-mail address to open an account with GB. I know all the names mentioned here, from way back when.
My Brother, (ecPilot135) used to proxy bid for me and then I would step in and complete the transaction. (Probably did at least/approx 10 like that.)
When I moved back down South, (where I am now) after a couple years here, I bought a Tablet (what I am typing on now) and opened an E-mail account, joined GB, started buying under my name and commenting here.
(So) Even though I might have only been active on the forums for apprx 10 years, I have been reading most everything here for around/approx 20 years.

I went up to the Carson Gun Show once, just to meet him, wish I had more chances too do the same....
IIRC, he ended up passing away due to some amputations from Agent Orange.
Same for me. I went one time by my self, and my wife and I went another time.

I always liked comments from Government cheese ( I think he has another handle at one time)
I remember pictures of the beautiful home he had built
Perry Shooter (Karl) was a very nice man as well.. I got to meet him here in Louisville at one of our big gun shows.
He ask me join him for dinner but I had already made other plans. I regret missing that opportunity.
One day I got a long e-mail from Perry Shooter. He invited me to stop at his house just off I64. He wanted to talk shooting and show me his range at his house since i had done some competitive shooting during and after my Army days. His daughter taught HS in Fluvanna County where my second home is located and Karl was in charge of the Rappahannock Pistol Club. I believe he worked for John Deer Tractor in Charlottesville. It would have only been a little out of my way to visit him but i passed until the next trip I said.
Karl was such a nice man and i deeply regret my decision because Karl passed away before the next time. Never put off for tomorrow what you should do today.------Ray

I also miss Nanuq907. He wasn't around here very long but he sure complimented the forums with his compassionate ways, his interesting stories, and his life in Alaska. Every time I see an older Land Rover on the road, I think of Nanuq. May he RIP.

I never met Karl but he was nice enough to guide me thru several problems over the years. Whether small engine related or 45acp and the 1911 , he always had the answer to my problem.

@Brookwood, was Nanuq907 the guy that posted about seeing a Bear running up beside his Land Rover and he could not accelerate faster than the Bear, because his Land Rover was so slow?
That was Hysterical. 😂

The saddest thing about growing old is losing your friends. Someday, if we are lucky, we will be missed and remembered by our friends and family. Life ain't easy for a boy named Sue.............

There was cutiegirlracing, I think it was, who lied about a whole bunch of stuff and wasn't even a girl if I remember right. Seems like about every time she went out in a boat it would tip and she would lose tools, guns, chainsaws, you name it.
Actually, from the vast number of people who use GB, there is a very small percentage who are on the forums.

Hi folks, been gone awhile, haven't meant to be a stranger. Due to a hectic work schedule and related firewalls on work 'puters I mainly used my phone. Apple, (Yeah I know, flame away.) did it's best to block GB access at every turn. In frustration I faded into the background. This issue, for some reason seems to have lessened to some degree. After hearing from Oakie and Ken/84Bravo I figured I'd give this another try. Good to see ya'll.

"Â Good to see ya'll."
Good to be seen, and not viewed. Glad you found your way back!

I remember him too but like you can't recall his name. I'm pretty sure he was in a bad auto wreck but survived with some serious injuries.
