I'm sure most know by now thanks to the ColtAdmin's kind introduction that I'm now the moderator . Many of you have seen me post here for several years as well as a few other gun forums . I know a little about most guns , but don't profess to be an expert on any . I come here to relax & learn and if I can help someone else during my visit , then it was a good day .
My plans here are that I have no plan . Things run smooth and I'm not going to interfere . I have no intention of changing anything . I might occasionally move a thread to a more fitting forum area from time to time , but please don't take offense . My goal is to give the forum regular supervision and keep it the civil and friendly place that I've known for several years . With your help , I know it will continue . /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have comments or suggestions .
Thanks for identifying yourself Mitch. And thank you for taking over the Moderating position. Considering we are all a bunch of opinionated gun nuts, collectively as a group we have indeed been very civil and well behaved. I'd say it is a credit to the membership of this forum.
To the membership of this forum, I thank you for sharing your knowledge (and pictures) with the rest of us.
Thanks for "breaking the ice" . I was feeling like the King with new clothes there for a minute .

Exactly what I've mentioned to a few members offline . We have a great bunch of guys here (sorry , if there are ladies present!) /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Guy, good for you, glad to hear someone has their "finger on the trigger", just to keep things pretty much as they and have been , a fine place for all us "opinionated gun nuts". /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I just got back from the Reno gunshow and saw your "appointment"! Great to see you handling the Moderator's job! I know you will do well ... Thanks for stepping up! Bob Best
Welcome Mitch, I know you will keep us in line when we need to be, but hopefully we will have some latitude to be able to have lively dialogues when there are differences of opinions. If we all agree on everything it wouldn't be much of a forum and I might as well be talking to my wife. "Now honey you know I was just kidding." Smack!!!
Been on holiday for 2 weeks and missed a lot so I've noticed. But I've already seen some things for the good happening on the Forum while trying to catch up on my reading!
Mitch, congratulations on the careermove and the best of luck! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
Congrats.
I guess you're kind of like a zebra. Calling fouls and keeping the game clean? As you can guess I know NOTHING about what an administrator does. I'm just glad to have such an informational outlet. I read a lot, post a little, and try to not wear out my welcome.
Hello Guy! I'm still new to the forum, but intend to absorb and exchange info with fellow Colt enthusiasts and gun owners; lets not be Forgotten Soldiers!
Mitch, your doing a great job keeping the controls in place. We now have a healthier forum environment than before you took over.....and it wasn't half bad before. Keep up the great work and thanks for taking time out of your day AND night to take on this effort. You’re a true gentleman.
Thanks Kevin . I appreciate the kind words .
We hope things haven't changed much as that wasn't our intention . We want Colt Forum to keep the "small town" friendly atmosphere . The Mayberry of gun forums /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I just found the forum from a post on the High Road so glad I found y'all. I'm familiar with a number of the names already so anticipate a good time while roaming the halls of Colt Land. There is no specific Black Powder area, that I can see. I like reading about the old cap n ball Colts from time to time. I have an original 1849 pocket .31 that I use as my avatar. Here are a couple larger pix.
