My name is Randy and my shooting friends call me assasin! Uh, for obvious reasons since I was 14. Wow, that's been almost 37 years. It's because I was raised next door to a rifle, pistol, and shotgun range in Houston, Texas. I am a gun a holic also proudly! Lost my profile completely on CR.com sadly!:confused:

The 97th Sig Bn disbanded in 1997 after more than 50 years of service in Europe, then cetmerifles shut down...but I'm still here. I loved the old site...best on the web, period...thanks Perro. I would love to help this one be even better. Let me know Tanker if I can help...even with start up funding.

Rampager
03-04-2007, 10:47 AM
My name is Tom. I used the name Rampager on Cetmerifles. I suppose most think I use the name Rampager in the shooting context, but actually it's stems in my case from the name of a little Dodge truck (Rampage) that I fixed up and put a supercharger on.

Most of my interest centers around guns, especially military style firearms. That and beer, oh and tobacco products. Alcohol, tobacco and fireams...yeah thats it.:cool:

03-04-2007, 11:52 AM
Hay all,

It's Woofert checkin' in to the new diggs, same old me.

I like the idea of the new form and appriciate those who have stepped up to keep things going, and by no means harbor any ill feelings to those who have "passed the torch" onto the new guardians of what I hope will be another excellent forum.

I must admit I'm a little sorrowful at the thought of deleting the link in my favorites to cetmeriflies.com, its been the only forum that I frequent on a regular basis and have come to think of folks there as trusted friends and kindred spirits.

BUT…

I am also encouraged at the sight of familiar names coming over to the new forum and have high expectations that the “code of conduct” that I’d come to appriciate at cemterifies.com will come to be the standard here as well.

Woofert

Hi,

I am Ray and live out in Arizona. I am relatively new to the roller style weapons family. I purchased my HK91 Jan 2006 and I just purchased my MARS in Jan 2007. I am mainly interested in WWII military rifles, but am game for anything that piques my interest. I have a relatively small collection, about a dozen rifles and half dozen pistols, of semi-auto military rifles and handguns. I became a member of cetmerifles.com about a month ago. Outside of guns, I like classic cars, spending time with my family, working on my car and truck and also computers.

I was XO on the old forum and now XO3319 for my old battalion.

I am just a brainwashed wage slave of the military industrial complex or a simple prisoner of the Pentagon on my Joint Staff tour depending on your political preferences.

I like firearms of all types, shooting and tinkering and refinishing.

Welcome back to all and many thanks to Chris for taking on the burden.

Please let us know if you need help!

And if I could help myself I don't think I would. I've built several AKs, FALs a couple M1919s, and a Galil. CETMEs seemed like a logical next step. Now if I can limit myself to 1 or 2... The site looks great, missed the old one, I thinkI was trying to register when the trouble started. Thanks

Hi,
My name is Mike. I have been a gun-aholic since the age of 10. My dad got me hooked and provided me with my first 1911 at age twelve. I have been going down hill ever since-deeper into debt, I can't stop thinking about my next gun or when I will get to shoot....up again......I have a collection of military rifles starting with an 1896 Krag Carbine, 1903 MkI Springfield,M1 Grand, M1 carbine, and now a box of CETME. I have also built 3 1911's.and a bunch of other stuff as well, but I won't bother listing 'cause I don't want to put anyone to sleep. :)

HI everybody,

I'm utahhandyman from cetmerifles. My name is Scott and I have an addiction. I currently have 1 cetme, a kit and cast reciever I'm building this spring, an extra bill springfield trigger assembly I need a kit for, 2 ak"s I built, 2 sks's, an fal, a couple of mosin nagants, a sw 40 cal and sw airlight 38 special, and on lay-away at my favorite gun store is a beretta 1201fp shotgun with surefire light, a vector arms uzi and to top it off, a M1A match rifle that has me so hot and bothered. Never thought I would own one of those. Its good to see so many names from cetme rifles here. Alot of you have given valuable advice since I joined a few years back, and I'm sure I'll need more. Thanks again :D

thanks again mike and chris.............:)

averagejoe
03-05-2007, 11:42 AM
averagejoe (aka seth) checkin out the new site. many thanks to Chris for the hard work. my first rifle was a CETME i picked up at a gun show November 2005. everyone on cetmerifles.com helped me take a dangerous CAI monkey job to an in-spec, accurate battlerifle. that began the addiction. 15 months and 15 guns later (curse that C&R i was encouraged to get) my wife has accepted that she is married to a junky (and a broke one at that).

the loss of knowledge recorded at cetmerifle.com is staggering, i was eagerly awaiting the conclusion of Perro's mega post on all controversial issues on bolt gap, headspace, etc.....

oh well, from the ashes, i'm confident this site will rise to new heights!

I sure missed my military fix in the form of CetmeRifles.com, sure Im glad to see this forum spring up with the same fine people.

Wow, see what happens when your gone for a few days- a whole new forum sprouts up. I'm glad I found my way here. I haven't looked around that much but I hope all that great CETME technical information has been preserved somewhere. I look forward to learning more.

Bullseye made it back, just took a while to post it here. Finally got over the hump after not having my favorite place to hang out online for a while. Thanks tanker for doing this, the alternative was too horrible to think of. Glad to see most of us have found our home again after the move, we need to locate the others and send them an invite. Seems like there are a lot of Mike's here too. I feel right at home.
