Well .... looks like Im the first to post from Alaska on this topic so I will try to speak for a couple of us. Being on Kodiak Island I know a few Arfers. Was at Safeway shopping and I hear "hey Kodan"  Have met and know about 3-4 that I see regularly and a couple from other parts of the state that I have met. All have been cool was good to meet them.
I think being in a small community helps to know whos who. You didnt read my post apparently 
Damnit, page 5 and didn't call it. |

My second time shooting in 8 or 9 years was with a member on here I met through the HTF.
A great guy, and very friendly. I actually need to ask him to come back to the range with me, as the Wife and I are trying to improve our pistol marksmanship and he is an instructor with the police and I know I could use the pointers. I know there are several in my area, and would be down wuth meeting any one of them. |

The GAHTF used to do meets all the time, I'm not sure what happened to that. Well, there was a HTF MOA shoot last weekend, there's a campout next weekend, I missed the shoot earlier in the month... All listed in the GAHTF... Haven't seen a lunch or dinner meet in a while, I'll admit... |

Met a bunch at a local shoot. Met one in Vegas at Shot Show. Couldn't find the damn ARF get together there.
Used to work with one, although he is not on very often. Met a few more in FTF transactions. |

I've met two (that I'm aware of). One a prolific poster who's pretty well known, one a less frequent poster, both longtime account holders like me.
Less frequent poster was a super guy and it was awesome meeting him. Well-known prolific poster was a jerk who screwed me over on something and I frankly don't care to run into him ever again. |

I've met a few. Some were cool, some were jackasses and were socially retarded basement dwellers. The latter group scared me the most. None have ever been to mi casa or even know where it is.

Turns out a customer at my store is an Arfcommer. I'd talked to him quite a few times before I found out. Only way I found out was I noticed the BFL sticker on his car, and hit up the HTF to find out who it was.
Arfcommer's are some of the best people out there. |

About 10 years ago.
Was working with a guy from KY late one night, first day we worked together. Started talking about finishing his 80% lowers and going to Dillion Precision during his honeymoon. "Arfcom?" I asked. You too? was his reply. Think he moved to Idaho or Oregun soon after. Hi Cliff! |
