VISION for the Marksman Sub-forum

[TwoStrike]

Dear Marksmen,

My hope for this little piece of cyber-heaven, is to see exchanges between those who have questions about the art, and those who have experience in the solutions for those problems. Teaching of proper principles of the art is the aim.

The Need is great, because the well-intentioned, who wish to learn to shoot with accuracy, should be taught.

The Circle Sportif is by it's nature one fraught with dangers, so it is my hope that the experienced among us will pass on some beliefs and rituals that embody the safe use of firearms under all conditions.

It is my hope that others will publish short, explanatory articles which teach the various skills and equipment acquisition necessary to produce an ethical, seasoned firearms operator.

It is my belief that maximal usefulness of these exchanges will be promoted by understanding, thoughtfulness, mutual respect, and humility (which for these exchanges I will define as the humble recognition that there is more than one way to skin a cat).

Thank you all for any interest, any questions you may have, and any experiences that you care to contribute.
If I knew how, and if I could, I would like to make this a sticky.
TwoStrike

Twostrike i commend your effort! Its very hard to get the experienced to share there know how!! But I for one would love to learn more bout LR shooting! Have had the privilege of doing some LRS & its really challenging & interesting! I look forward to some good info!! Thanks!
Paparock please may i inquire regarding this "username & password"? I see it is requested from time to time on different threads. Is this sub group with in the forum reserved for the senior or select few members or just to keep out the riff raff? Please advice? Also, & please excuse my ignorance here, but what are the requirements to be able to PM someone & any other forum rules i may need to no as a newbie? Not to tech savie sorry! Cant seem to find any rules! (sorry to hijack this thread! I cant PM anybody??)

[johnboy]

new members need 10 posts before they can send any Pm's

there are passwords set up to stop the public from viewing that section also to stop new members from spamming the section.
we use our own judgment as to what members are worthy of the password
the passwords are only available from the Super Moderators, with the Marksmen section Twostrike has that password also.
so if one want to access the forums one needs to contact the appropriate members
here is a link to the forums terms and conditions http://www.israelmilitary.net/showth...3602#post33602

Thanks Johnboy! Much appreciated! Its all good! Better to keep it controlled! I only found this forum this weekend so its all good! Ill just wait patiently for my turn! So far its a great forum! Will go read through the rules & regs shortly!

Two Strike, this sounds good. I try to keep my tng up and may have a little to offer and still have a lot to learn about LRS. I've got a sweet DPMS 308 with a Mark 4 on top and I miss it. It's in storage back in the US and can't wait to get back into some big fields to nail a few hay bales. That 308 cart is smooth and the wind doesn't knock it around like the AK round. Anyway, with your permission I'd like to have a pswd also so I can take part. I haven't been consistent on this site but this sounds interesting enough to want to participate. Thx.

[Emo Zipper]

I would like to participate. As I have been doing it for over four decades.....EZ

[Shanghi]

Hi Twostrike! Would like to be considered for this sub forum to please?

[lmc8541]

would like password for subforum also.

[Boanerges]

I'd like to participate in the form.
I'm presently an LEO sniper and a firearms instructor
Years ago I was a gunsmith for a gov.spec. ops unit.
I presently build sniper rifles.
I consider myself as an excentric gunsmith, meaning at the age of 70 I pick and choose those things on which I want to work. Time is growing shorter with each passing day.
Thus endith the introduction.

[Boanerges]

Looking at the the dates of the postings prior to mine, dated 2010, I see there are no topics of discussion. So, about what are we going to talk??????

[Boanerges]

What round does the Israeli military as their match round for sniping? How long is the Israeli basic sniper training program? What rifle and scope do they use?

[reardon]

If I may, I would like to ask for the password of Marksman subforum. Thank you. I tried to PM TwoStrike but unable to do so because of some settings.

[Knaur]

TwoStrike hasn't been active for a while and the sub-forum has become kind of redundant. If you have something to add, just PM Paparock as he posts most often there and he ll give you access.

[reardon]

Thank you for the information, Knaur. I will contact Paparock. I wish the best for TwoStrike.
