I do a lot of driving in Texas and was thinking it'd be nice if ARF.com had a bumper sticker to help identify other members. What do yall think? I spoke with a few other members and they liked the idea also. Now I'm not good with drawings and such so I figure we could have some members post some images for consideration.

How about "Arrest me, I'm armed"....OK, OK...."ARFCOM"....OK, OK...."Open Minded Machinegunners @ ar15.com"
|

I can do 3x11 bumper stickers, 3x5 rectangular stickers, and 3x5 ovals....graphics can be any colors, can also add images in no problem.
price to be determined if you use me...my personal cost is higher than normal set by the company that does the work. BUT there is no color or image limitations! oval example [img]http://prodtn.cafepress.com/6/5962256_F_tn.jpg[/img] bumper sticker example [img]http://prodtn.cafepress.com/1/5205091_F_tn.jpg[/img] |

I think it would be cool.
Something like "Have you hugged your assault rifle today". |
|
An ar15.com sticker is too conspicuous. I propose that we use this one:

I was hoping to go through Freeride21a since he's a fellow memeber and willing to work with us.
Just need some designs. Anyone's welcome to post them. I know a few texas members that are good at this if they'd like to chime in. Bung.. I'll remember to get you two of those stickers. One for your truck and the other for your AK. [ROFL2] |
|
The IBTL idea is a good one! It's a code we all know well, and is probably unique to AR15.com. A positive identifier that doesn't tip off the common peasants like this one is a great idea.
Other content ideas: Would you hit it? I'd hit it! What kind of gun was that in the movie HEAT? Wolf OK in an AR? (Very cryptic to most people) BOTD /Babe Of The Day Dinner pics: Which is better: AK or AR? Most if not all of these would be effective. CJ |
|
How about plain black with the words 'Seeing Eye Cat' in flourescent pink.
|
|
Go for it. If you are using the AR15.com logo though, you might want to get an OK dokie from EdSr. or GB.
|
|
I was sort of tring to stay away from the arf.com logo to not draw attention from the anti's, know what I mean?
|
|
Lets all buy CB radios, put them in our cars, and then just put a white bummer sticker with the letters ARFCOM. No one knows what that is anyway. unless you visit this site often.

For most of us to put one on our cars it should;
1. Not scream guns. 2. Be a unique shape. 3. Be easy to recognize without seeing it fully or closely. With these in mind I offer a start of the design process, as my below idea was inspired by freeride21a. Anyone with improvements to this please have at it. [img]http://photos.ar15.com/ImageGallery/IG_LoadImage.asp?iImageUnq=13277 [/img] I would suggest that Sparsky pick 2 or 3 of the most popular ones identified in this thread and then run a poll. SSD The “ARFCOM” isn’t AR15 logo is it? |
|
I like freerides' IBTL oval. I would like to have AR15.com under IBTL, and do away with 'In Before The Lock'.
Or how about: IBTL It's a Black Rifle thing, you wouldn't understand. |
|
Identify?
Am I the only one who has/remembers the license plate brackets??? I getr more dirty looks from hippies and HAVE been let go by cops with a warning and a, "Oh yeah, I LOVE your license plate bracket"... THATS the identifier... |
|
Suggest 2 styles:
1. In your face style. AR15.com or ARFCOM. I include ARFCOM as recognizable since ARFCOM on Google brings up AR15.com in the top 10. 2. Subdued. IBTL. Doesn't hit the first 3 pages of Google. If you don't know, you aren't a member. |
|
I Made the IBTL sticker a few weeks back, its in my store [url]www.cafeshops.com/000buckwear[/url] The other one is avalable there also. I was just using them as examples.
I do like the idea of taking off the "in before the lock" and putting either ARFCOM, ARF.COM, or AR15.COM. What does ar15.com charge for using their logo like that? |
|
It wouldn't be hard to spot most of the people here because their cars have government license plates.
|

How about this:
HOMELAND DEFENSE BEGINS AT HOME www.AR15.com Being a recovering technophobe, typing it is an accomplishment. I'll let somebody else worry about the graphics/artwork. [;)] |

I will need five. One for my Jeep, one for my wife's Jeep, and the other three for the three unmarked DPS vehicles in my office. I'm liking this idea a whole lot.

I like the "IBTL" oval stickers.
Sonepeople (myself inculded) don't like "bumper stickers" How about a window sticker, like them college boys got. "University of ARFCOM" "College of IBTL" |
|
I like the IBTL ovals too. Fruits can have fruit stripes, we should have one of our own.

Ditto on the IBTL oval.
I'll fiddle around and do some variations. |
|
Like CavVet,we have ar15.com license plate holders in our cars.
The decals would be a nice touch.Where can I order mine? [:)] |

I can add colors, or ar-15 rifle watermark...suggestions welcome! |

I still like'Seeing Eye Cat?'.
It makes no sense to anyone but us. |
|
I think Free hit it right on the money. Small, Conservative, and makes sense to us. All in favor?

Oval and IBTL seems to be the way...
[img]000buck.d2g.com/000buckwear/ibtl4-02.jpg[/img] This one without the 'arfcom' would be good. Simple, easy to recognize and one HAS to know what it means to understand it. SSD |

It's on my bitch ex wife's car, parked somewhere in a different town because the transmission is broken. I am almost ready to redo our divorce agreement to specify that she get that sucker back to me, she said she would but she isn't. I may have to go to court and refuse to agree to the agreement until she gives it back, OR go to the small town where her car is stored with some NVD's and black ninja clothes to do a grid search!!! I WANT MY ARFCOM LICENSE PLATE FRAME BACK!!!! Edit to add: sorry for flipping out! I like the white IBTL oval, NO ar15 identifier. They look a lot like those oval stickers that import car dealers use to identify themselves, so they are on lots of yuppy cars. A bumper sticker that says this: NINJA'S ARE SWEET............>> and by that I mean totally cool Would be sweet! Again, ARFCOMMERS would get it! |

IF we can find out who has them, I Will handle getting you another one if there are any...If there are none, I have one front & one rear, I will give you one of mine to keep you from gettin any closer to the exwitch than you have to... I will fire off an email now and see if I can find out who has/had them...I will IM you when I find out something..... |

Instead of IBTL...substitute
IMBROGLIO :) Imb, everyone here knows you...and either for you or agin' you. Gwen in L.A. |

Well, I have a spare. I was going to put it on my car whenever I got around to putting the front plate back on (I took it off about 4 years ago and it's buried in the trunk now), but if you REALLY can't get it from your ex, it's yours Kill.
But better yet.... Can anyone get more of these made? All the companies I have looked into look like they do text only. Wouldn't be the same without the rifle. [img]http://photos.ar15.com/ImageGallery/IG_LoadImage.asp?iImageUnq=13345[/img] Or |
