    Excuse my bluntness. Why is it every new online member comes on in the second post requesting something identified and evaluated? Apparently the current collecting mantra is we do the research, and the evaluation, you sell the items for profit. I am not going to play this game, perhaps there are others out there who want to. My advice is to please use Google to find out on your own more about these items, I am sure there are Google rifle articles in Italian.

    Good luck with your sales.

    Ha, ha, if you enjoyed his bluntness here, you should see him when he really goes on a tear.

    Yes, as Cliff stated, I have 'contributed' to a couple of heated posts.

    If only the Italian poster had placed his add in the Marketplace section. All he had to do was say he was selling pullthroughs at 2 or 20 Euro each, whatever he thought they were worth and see what sales were generated. But, oh no, it was the same old story, tell me what it is and tell me how much it is worth. Add to this the person couldn't even be bothered to check the online resources. Am I the only person who is bothered by this?

    Perhaps I am a dinosaur with the idea being that you buy something military and let everyone else identify and appraise it - then you sell it.

    I understand your point Ed. I've just gotten to the point where I don't respond anymore. Just my way to try to minimize frustrations.

    Everyone acts differently in a forum and in life. Sometimes it's just fascinating to be a witness. People are interesting!

    Ed is a dinosaur??? I think we need a new emoticon to encapsulate Ed's point.

    Ed I would not consider you a dinosaur, maybe a bear with a sore arse from time to time, but never a dinosaur.

    I understand 100% your stance with regards to topics where you "go off" for lack of another phrase.

    As for being different on the internet as opposed to person to person, in Ed's case, certainly. In person he would not hold back, he has learned great restraint over the net. As for myself, I bite my tongue many times online, where as in person, I would tear someone a new one.
