I know I've been here a few months, but I heard about MGO from Google. I think I was just googling for MI concealed weapons laws.

[Tallbear]

Let's make this a sticky......

[fotophocus]

Should also mention that after I joined, I re-met Tallbear, who I had already known for about a year. I hadn't discovered the joy of firearms at the point, nor did I know he was into them either.

[RifleGuy]

I had posted a couple of firearms to the Detroit Craigslist with high hopes of selling them. I received an email from a "Mike" (Mr. Thiede, perhaps?) inviting me to take a look at MGO.
I posted my guns to MGO (didn't sell - bummer) but found that I liked the site and interaction amongst the members. Been here since then.

[Rev.Jim]

Google. I think i was looking for cpl laws at the time.

[Garbo]

Back in the day it was the same for me (google), I was looking for CPL app info and had a few concerns al of which were nothing to worry about. Tallbear jumped in and was extreemly helpfull during the process.

[ant1901]

From another Member. Diverdave

[FormerPacifist]

I found the site via Google search. I have also seen the link on several other shooting related sites I have looked at.

[Phelptwan]

I think I saw a post on THR, or TFL. I can't remember which.

[who dat]

Google, with follow up info and verification from Greg Meier at Port City Pistol. I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to spend a lot of time with a lot of crazy gun nuts, but I stayed anyway.:biggrin:

[San_Marco_Training]

Justin at Wolverine in Brownstown told us about the site.

[UTPD#5]

I found out about MGO from a friend who was a member.

He told me of a pistol for sale, I logged in and bought the pistol 3 minutes later.

Picked it up from RSF a couple days later...

...And now the rest of the story.

I learned so much from the board, and sold a few items, that I wanted to support the organization...so I became a Contributing Member.

Since becoming a PAID member, I have worked with the Executive Board and met dozens of great people all over the state of Michigan.

[Robert Carr]

I saw a posting in the IDPAforum from GS Bell who pointed to the M&P buy that is presently going on here.

[fbuckner]

Good deal on them I paid $470 for mine with 2 mags when they first came out and purchased another 3 mags,2 holsters and a mag holder and I am up to about $700 when if this deal would have been going on my wif wouldnt look at me funny everytime i put it on my hip.

[MarkoPo]

Ricebrnr Told me to visit here on the Firing line forum.

I heard aou MGO in my cpl Class. It was recommended as a good source of information. And they were right. I took my class with
American Firearms Training, we used the hall at Gander mtn. in Taylor and did our range time at Top Gun. That was in May of this year. My neighbor also recommended MGO to me and he actually took his training with you and said how much he liked it and how good your class was.

I found this site from a link on michigan-sportsman.com They have it posted for a place to sell and ask questions about the value of your gun. I'm just really glad I found the site. Tons of good info so far :thumbup:

Thanks for the good words we try to do our very best to provide students with knowlegable and useful information. Remember to keep training well beyond your CPL class.

[ShutterBug357]

I heard about your site from a member. He figured it was something I'd be interested in.

Edited for grammatical content.

I have been looking for a grendel and found a link on google to the for sale forum.

[shagagagunga]

SNAREMAN off of a michigan-sportsman.com thread.

The only gun that mattered to me was the Win94 I got from my grandfather for deer hunting until this year when my uncle brought up 2 Mausers that my other grandfather brought back from WWII. We took some time out from hunting to cap some pop cans with them and I thought that was the coolest thing in the world. I kept thinking of the stories those guns could tell.

Now I have an interest (read jones) and this site seems to be great for info. Thank you to all who post and teach us less knowledgeable!!!

Pretty sure it was from the local gun show website.

Hi Paul and welcome to MGO.
Be sure to check out this thread regarding your interest:
http://www.migunowners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17028

[gjc357]

I was originally looking to sell my Beretta, which many of you have probably seen posted. I practically live across the road from Action Impact in Southfield and I went in there one night to see if they had a bulletin board or something to post private sales. One of the guys behind the counter suggested MGO.com and spoke very highly of the website.

Since then I have visited almost every day and upon receipt of the funds from my pending sale I will be buying a membership. The forums have been a lot of fun, are very informative, and have rekindled my interest in shooting beyond hunting.

[Maccool]

I was looking for CPL laws and firearm info here in Michigan

[dazednconfused75]

I found this while trying to figure out what was taking my CPL so long in WaCo.

[Shorty4Good]

I stumbled across this site many times cruzin around the web, reading stuff bout shoot'in & reload'in. Finally decided it was time to speak up. Jess might influence a newbee for the good.

[andoman]

I came across the site on google a few times when I was looking for cpl info. Decided to join, and plan on paying dues once I get back to work. But right now I'm searching the site for info on a good holster for my sigma 9mm.

Where did you hear about us from?

A recent thread in a Michigan jeep site referenced your forum.

[johnson27885]

Heard about the site from one of the gun salesman at the dreaded Gander Mountain.

[Roundballer]

One of the members of my sportsmens club found this site and arranged to have Mike come in and talk to us. He was very well received and a club member made a motion from the floor for our club to create an association between groups. So... Here I am.

[BitterGunOwner]

I was searching saiga 12 for ammo and saw MGO mentioned there.

[Geogh3]

I was getting very frustrated looking for used hand guns and going to site after site of dealers that had huge web sites and no guns... so I thought since I have a CCW and can buy from an individual in Michigan maybe I can find someone that has a handgun for sale. Surfing looking for michigan guns for sale and walah there you were with a "Guns for Sale" on your site. Well I was pleasantly surprised to see a guy putting a Ruger P94DC on your site, we shot emails back and forth and the next day I met him not to far from my home and made a deal, bought the gun, and I will tell anyone who will listen to go to your site. The people are great, the blogs are great, and I am getting addicted to all the info you have on this site. I can see why people come on your site every single day. Things move fast and this is a great place to check and see whats happening. Thanks for a great site.

Heard about you on Open Carry's forum a day or so ago.

Just bought my first handgun about a month and a half ago. A Ruger SR9. I'm excited about learning more about gun laws, shooting techniques, etc.

[cbr]

I heard about MGO from Scott Sieffert owner of The Discerning Shootist in Traverse City. We just moved our company, Altus Brands, LLC to Michigan and are now moving our raw materials, parts, servcies and labor requirements here. It is great because we have been very "welcomed" by the community. What a great hunting and shooting state-one of the reasons we are here.

[KayL]

Altus Brands is the manufacturer of ProEars, et al.


After 10 years in Colorado, Altus Brands recently announced the relocation of their business from Westcliffe, CO to their new corporate offices in Traverse City, MI. From there, they will handle all operations for Altus Brands products. Michigan has easy access to materials, shipping, and a trained and talented work force.

Altus Brands, the veteran-owned small business specializing in manufacturing products for hunters, shooters and sportsmen, including ProEars electronic and passive hearing protection, Bench Master Rifle Rests, and CrossFire Archery and Firearm Slings, will invest $710,000 to relocate and expand existing operations in Garfield Charter Township.

Believe it or not I heard about this through my son, I knew some day he would be good for something, Just kidding. I have to be nice to him he has nicer guns than I do.

Sorry, I understand this is posting is for "how we found MGO" but, the only reason why I'm still alive is because some of the youngsters are still bad shots! Most youngster's couldn't hit the side of a barn if they were IN IT! Sounds like your son is exceptional.

thanks for letting me into your forum:fa:

[kragnor]

I found your site in the process of looking for 7.5mm french ammo. Now that I've seen the little that I have, I'm glad I did. It's always nice to run into and talk to other people fighting to save our 2nd amendment rights. Gun owners are a special breed who epitomize and preserve everything that this country was founded on and stands for. I look forward to spending more time on your site and listening to what other people have to say in regards to our fought for freedoms.
Vermont, while being considered as one of the more liberal states in the union, has some of the most sensible and open gun laws in the country. Hopefully, that will give me a chance to offer some diffferent views in regards to anything I see on this site. Thanks again....Roy

[greenman41]

I found MGO through 'Woods-n-Water News'. Supporting others gun owners in my home state only seemed reasonable as I'm already dedicated to the preservation of the 2nd Amendment, an NRA member, firearms owner, and avid hunter and historian.

[armed-aviator]

Googled it.

I have a question for you now. Where did you hear about us from?

Hi, my name is Paul Nolan and I live in Seattle, Wa., though I was born in Chicago and lived there for 45 years. I'm a divorced 62 year old salesman who owns three handguns (Kel-Tec P32, Makarov 9 mm. Mak, and a Ruger .22) and who is a strong supporter of our Second Amendment rights. I was just wandering around the web perusing gun topics and sites when I came across your group. It looked like a nice place so I bookmarked it. I returned several times in the ensuing months, but tonight I registered so I could see a picture of a Mosin-Nagant for sale here. I really like military surplus firearms. I look forward to getting to know all of you in the future.

Hello everyone! I was actually referred to the site by the good people at S&P Guns & Ammo in Southgate.

Not much about me really. I ride sport bike on track and street, I am into amateur Rally and autocross racing. I am a collector of AK's and tactical weaponry. I have worked as LE and as military in the past. Now I am laid off and looking for a place to actually put my degree to use. I will have my Bachelor's in Business Admin. shortly.

I am somewhat of a survivalist as well. I always enjoy excursions into the wilderness with minimal equipment.

Anything else...just ask!

I noticed a post on another forum recommending the person, who was trying to sell a firearm, try their luck selling it on this forum.

It wasn't directed at me, but it ended up being quite a helpful recommendation regardless. I've already sold a couple items and I've only been a member for a couple days. This appears to be a good resource for a number of things beyond buying and selling too. Glad it was pointed out for me to find! =)

[R945]

my work friend and hes shooting buddy told me abou the site, i checked it out and im A quick fan

[noah.c.hardy]

i was talking with a member from another site about a trade and he mentioned this site.

[Ted Hylek]

I live in Canadian Lakes Mich. Was looking to sell a rifle and someone mentioned MGO.and thought iI would loke into it.

[ScottOst]

Hi, Just trying to figure out how to navigate this site. I ran across the site surfing, then it was recommended by a friend who has been an NRA instructor and ffl dealer for 30 years. I have been a shooter, collector and reloader almost all of my life. I strongly support the 2nd amendment and the right to carry concealed or open. Thanks for putting up a first rate site that Michiganders can be proud of supporting. ScottOst

[suntz]

Friend at work told me about mgo when I was talking about selling some firearms, so I looked it up and joined. I'm on air rifle forums and love the info you get from other members, very educational.

[Soupie]

I found it when I did a search in Google for "Monkey Grips". Thomas, from Wyoming has a set for sale on this site right now, and I looked more into it, and HERE I AM!

I can't believe I hadn't known about this!

[Shalayko94]

heard about MGO over on gl4x4

[lstevens1965]

I was just wondering around the internet and found the site, registered and here I am. Cool site I hope to get lots of info. from here!

[dpgperftest]

heard about MGO from father in-law

[markwg]

Just learned about this sight. Looks like an interesting site. I look forward to learning about what others have to say and sharing my thoughts. Years ago I went to school in Michigan. After a number of years I grew fond on the state and the people who live there. I am saddened with the current condition of Michigan and look forward to the day it regains its glory.

I have a question for you now. Where did you hear about us from? I would like to know how the word is getting around and who ,what when or where you heard about us. This will help us plan for the future of MGO.

google like a lot of others looking for guns for sale. New to this type website trying to learn.

[Chadsghost]

I was told about this site by a shooting buddy.

[HDDJT45]

Glad to be a part of the community. Been browsing the forums for about a year and finally felt compelled to contribute and register.

Thanks.

[suzuki-guy]

Google! Was searching for CCw Laws

[jbizel1]

I was searching for gun info and ran across the site and after reading some of the info I decided to join because of the overall feel of the website. MGO didnt try to make anyone feel stupid when the mods or administrator replied to posts or input their opinions.

[tc scout]

A member on GBO posted the website address, so I came on over.
Liked the forum and joined up.

[yipeeskipee]

Google. I was searching for a 300 Savage bolt action and MGO was one of many sites I ended up reading. When I realized the site was all fellow Michiganders I had to join...sure beats shipping and FFL fees on gunbroker.com

I heard about MGO through a Google search.

[BoilerWes]

Found MGO through a google search. I live in Indiana but spend time in MI mostly during the summer near Baldwin. For those of you interested, Indiana has a similar website (Indiana Gun Owners) that has lots of good info. Look forward to browsing your forums, set-up seems excellent and easy to use!

[mudvr1212]

Hello fellow gun owners!

My name is Jeremy. I am 26 years of age and I just bought my first house in La Salle, Mi. I was born and raised in Monroe, so I didn't move far, unlike my brother whom moved to Las Vegas two years ago. I miss that man!
I learned about this site from the Michigan opencarry.org forum. I am all for the open carry of firearms. Although there are times where concealed is the most logical.
I have been around firearms since I was a kid when I received my first BB gun. Oh how I loved to shoot the sparrows on the bird feeder! I currently only own long guns but am about to pruchase my first handgun.

:flag: :thumbup: :flag:

Support our TROOPS!!!

[inkbomb1968]

Heard from another brother about the potential of the site to inform, interact and even conduct business with other firearm owners. Super place to visit and enjoy so much that is offered from others who appreciate many of the same things.
I enjoy the opinions and being a single part of the greater community can always be a helpful experience! I hope that I can prove that my association is valuable like I have already seen in such a large abundance. Plus, it makes me laugh and reminds me that there is more to us owners than just war and destruction with what we choose to exercise in our rights as Americans.
Blessings to all!:pistols:

[rack805]

A friend referred me to this site, I'm new to the CCW world and I feel like i need the knowledge and looking to buy if possible.

[Silencer 8283]

I am Sean McClung but now I go by "Silencer" because I try to maintain a quiet disposition despite my size. LOL! My friend Jeff recommended looking this site up for information and the ability to aquire firearms. Currently, I am looking at a prospective job as an armored car driver and I need a .357 Magnum revolver for work. As a responsible CPL holder though, I want to know what is happening in the world I am in. What better place than a site that has the capacity for vast amounts of information. I look forward to talking to a lot of people and making new friends.

Sincerely with Kindest Regards,

Silencer

[mlanden]

Hello All...Thanks for the invitation to what looks to be a very friendly and enthusiastic group of members enjoying, and gaining the benefit of what this Forum has to offer. I have only lurked here briefly, and found this place to be well worth the investment of a membership. So here I am...

Little bit about myself; I am a Novice enthusiast in the Firearms world, and open minded to ingest ideals, as well as ideas. A Husband/Father for the second time with "6" children between myself and my Wife Jennifer. Skilled Trades in the manufacturing business is what I do. Everything outdoors is what I enjoy. Another pastime is strumming some notes on my Taylor 12 string.

I look forward to browsing the Forums and learning, as well as sharing where I think I can.

Thanks again...

[Bernie Metten]

[suesealu]

I was searching google for a michigan firearms forum of which I could become a member.

[yostea]

Google. I think i was looking for cpl laws at the time.
same for me

[Shadonipr]

I did a search on my Beretta Tomcat and found a link for MGO and several posts about the gun.

I bought it in December and love it, but just yesterday it started jamming on the second round. So, since I had bought it for its size and weight for a carry weapon and it wasn't working properly....I had to get another carry weapon until it could be fixed. So, I now own a Ruger LCP.

[Daisy]

Hi everyone
I have read the forums a bit in the past. Now I am getting serious about owning and using firearms. I have a cpl permit but I don't have a pistol yet. I am mostly interested in rifles as my ancestors made rifles and I think they are beautiful. Now I am retired :( , so hopefully more time. :)

so much to learn.

Looking forward.....

[peted525]

I found MGO googling for Michigan CPL information.
Very glad I found the site. Have since Joined MGO.

[fishnpbr]

A reference was made to this site on the Michigan-Sportsman Forum so here I am. I'm a long time gun owner/hunter but new to personal handgun ownership. I've acquired 3 hand guns in the last year or so and expect my CPL to come in early April. Looks like a lot of great info here.

[broisaac]

Google.... All hail google. :P

Hello my name is Valdez. I live in Warren. I am a gun enthusiast as I like to shoot and enjoy the outdoors. I spend time with my son teaching and educating my son about guns. I am a Health and Life Producer. As in my line of work I educate people on how to save money on there Health care premiums. I look to this site to gain more education and information for me as I have a CPL and want to know my rights legally. Thank you and I plan on posting questions soon. Sorry if they sound dumb but better to ask than to pay the price for not asking.

[neos22]

[jmeul55]

I was searching for handguns for sale in Michigan. I used Google for my search and your site came up. I'm new to MCO but I carried a handgun for many years up until about 10 years ago. My wife doesn't like them very much so I sold all but my over-under. My new business takes me to some ruff areas of Grand Rapids. I decided it was time to start carrying again. My wife still doesn't like it but I'm sure she will live with it, and now so will I.

[rpartyka]

I heard about this forum by accident looking for a glock29 and came across our forum. I like it because it is in Michigan.

Kudos for weighing your right to self defense against your wife's discomfort. My wife didn't like it much at first, either, but it didn't take long for her to become accustomed to it. In fact, it didn't take long before she actually appreciated it and was thankful that I did/do. Now just waiting for her to feel ready to carry.

[kspeakmo]

I was pointed in your direction by a gun dealer in Monroe. I had a question, or actually a rant, about getting my "purchas permit" and they told me to check-out your site. Glad I did. I'm new to this whole "forum" thing, so if I make mistakes please bare with me and I apologise in advance.
