nice job

Well, after me and Ms. Coz discussed and cussed over them a few things came to mind..... Clever/different, modern...etc. I really like having firearms in it, but, that might be harder to transfer to imbroidered shirts.. and in the back of my mind I wanted to show location... thus, having NORTHWEST in the name... Tactical needed to be implied and I wanted my slogan too... And of course, Texas The combination of Mildot reticle and compass face with the needle pointing Northwest tells A LOT... Again it's just my opinion, but I'm telling you that there are some talented people on this board.  My bride and I thank you and wish we could have chosen a few more....  I like they idea of y'all posting what you submitted...it's tough for me and it's been a CRAZY day! Etexer, we'll email the transfer details etc... Thanks again to all!  Soon you'll see this banner at Gun SHows in the Houston area and maybe other parts of our great state! |
I tend to agree w/ Nationwide... that's not "mil-dot"... http://www.ustacticalsupply.com/rev-mildotreticle.shtml The mil dot reticle is a post and wire reticle with 10 mils (milliradians) between opposing posts and dots spaced 1 mil apart on the wires, minus the reticle intersection so as not to obscure the aiming point. A milliradian is an angular unit of measure that just happens to equal one yard at 1000 yards and 1 meter at 1000 meters.

Thanks for all the complements! And thankyou Zhukov for not entering  . Glad I could help COZ, and a free lower is way cool. I still cant believe mine was picked as there were some very cool entrys. Everybody did a great job. This contest was a great idea. Hope to see more on the boards soon. I was thinking about it and the first word of two are always whats remembered in a name. You will say....that one place North West sumthin until you become a regular customer. Thats why I made sure the logo shows northwest with the compass idea. I also wanted it to be tactical looking so I added the cross hairs. Went from there. I have never seen a logo like it, so I figure it would be remembered and not washed out with all the others. Had a blast! Now I have to figure out what I'm gonna build on the new lower. Was thinkin mabie .458 or 6.8 for hog huntin  . Need sumthin with some thump to keep up with TRG's MG .

Thats the best part of the logo IMO. Good creative thinking. |
