Two Flints,

Where did the time go.....let me be the first to say Happy 10th Anniversary to SSS.
I wonder if the old orignal posts on the SASS Wire can still be found?
Thank you for doing wht you do to moderate this fine cast of characters.
And I also think it is pretty sweet that SSS got a mention in Dillon's Blue Press this month - when I saw it, I was floored!! :o

Here's to another 10!  My best to you and all the members who all work to keep the heritage of Spencer firearms alive.

Many thanks Gunner ;D 

Ten years and counting . . . but not too sure about another ten years unless the "big Marshal" up there  ;) will allow it, and let me stay on as Moderator . . .  SSS membership is almost at 600 with members posting from all over the world  . . . for me, it really has been a "labor of love" these past ten years and I hope it continues . . .

SSS is fortunate to have such a fantastic group of guys who contribute their knowledge to our Spencer Shooting Society . . . they're the ones who keep SSS alive ;D ;D

Well Old Friend.  I remember when you asked the Marshal about having a Spencer dedicated Board.  It seems like yesterday.  I joined your fine group at your request although I didn't think I'd ever own a Spencer, and so far I've been proven right.  But still I have learned a lot regarding this fine piece of history.

Glad that I acted on my strange notion these many years ago....I just knew there had to be other cowpokes who were enamoured by the Spencer.

I am even more glad Two Flints that you would pick up and run with this whole crazy wonderful thing and keep it going.
I sadly never really had the time to permit to keep up with it.

Proud to be the Prime Instigator, and proud to be associated with you and the whole SSS crew!

Yeeehaa!

Thanks to Two Flints and all the other posters who have helped me get started with Spencers. Can not find this kind of knowledge
and help in one spot. Opened a new world to me.

This forum convinced me that I needed to buy one of these cw carbines. Thanks for the support and moderation.
