    I cant help but notice that I didn't get any birthday cake... Of course if it's an anniversary, that explains not getting any...

    DD and Norton, I'm in your debt that you didn't let me storm off in a snit all those years ago.

    AWESOME! I am glad to see the board has been around that long. I have learned a lot from this place and I have met a lot of great people. Without this board, I would not be in tune to our statewide gun news, politics and gun tips, from building to shooting. Happy Birthday MDS!

    I do want to say thank you to those who have persevered in their service to this community. I know it is a thankless task and is time consuming. But, we are stronger together than we are apart.

    MDS was just past being a toddler when I joined, it’s a grown kid behind the wheel now it seems! Great community!

    When I joined I had a trap gun, a skeet gun and a couple of handguns. I was thinking of finding people to trap shoot with.

    Now I have a carry permit, a bunch of class 3 stuff, well over a hundred guns, a metal mill and lathe...

    And a bunch of amazing folks here I call friends.

    It’s safe to say that MDS has had an enormous affect on the trajectory of my life. Definitely for the better.

    After all those purchases your significant other might not be too fond of this site. I always wonder how many relationships we've destroyed.... Lol.

    Thanks All - Its a rare day that I am not on the site at least once. I love the humor, knowledge, and just hanging out with some like minded folks. Oh, and my time does go by huh?

    Glad I was told about the forum back in 2009 when so many of us needed a place like this to go too.

    I am blessed. My wife grew up with a gun collecting father. In fact, her collection is probably worth more than mine since her inheritance. I have no doubt many relationships have been tested by the forum.

    I have one machine gun. My mom bought it for me. LOL.

    I don't post much, but I have learned a lot during my 14 years here with you all. Congrats on the 16 years MD Shooters and I wish you at least 16 more!

    A huge thanks to all the mods for keeping the place tidy!

    This is a great forum, considering all the mess passing and what may be coming, a much-needed place for gun owners!
