Federal law forbids my ownership of screwdrivers.

A skill necessary for successful gunsmithing is the ability to cut off a conversation without offending the customer. We all love talking with our favorite gunsmiths and can carry the conversation too far. They can’t work on guns while talking to you. David Yale was/is? The best I ever used at stopping a conversation without hurting feelings.

Mark B. what became of the other Mark from Show Low? He used to post regularly as mc, and in person was quite the (fun and educated) talker!

mc was logged in just 5 days ago, but hasn't posted in a while.

I miss seeing his posts because he freely shared his gunsmithing and firearms knowledge. But most of all, he was one of the few gunsmith that post here who understood the total lunacy of supporting the anti-gun Democrats who work relentlessly to infringe upon the 2nd Amendment Rights of law abiding U.S. citizens. He understood that throwing fellow gun owners who used other types of firearms under the bus is nothing more than a divide and conquer tactic that would take the U.S. down the same path as other countries with very restrictive gun laws.

He also didn't do any Free Tagline Advertising of his business ventures, and take unfair advantage of Dave. Personally, I'd never do business with any Liberal Left gunsmith who supported anti-gun Democrats... or any that lacked the integrity to pay Dave the $12.00 fee for sales resulting from Free Advertising
.
Go Woke-- Go Broke! And anyone who would cheat Dave would cheat any customer too.


Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug

Drew, mc is still kicking. He has been working on several of his own projects and keeping busy. You can add him to the list of talented and knowledgeable folks that have given up on this forum.

Good to see you posting, James. Every time I connect on a clay pigeon shooting off my right shoulder, I send a little prayer your way.

Good luck.

Best,
Ted
