    Ok. And 4314 is your favorite number?

    Good question! I signed up for a site long ago, and it wouldn't allow me to use my name as a user name. I added an old street address number to make it work. When I joined TGT, I just used the same user name so I'd remember it.

    When I was getting into multiple accounts and forums, there was in the need to have an universal ID/username for every site. About the same time I saw the movie "The Saint" starring Val Kilmer. I kinda stole that and added the Saint in there and voila ... TheSinfulSaint

    When I was 15, I was at a turkey shoot in E.KY. Rifle comp. I wasn't old enough for the competition (16 and up), but got to shoot beforehand. My Uncle has an SVD "Tigr" bring back from Vietnam (He was a "Scout", USMC, and took it from a VC sniper he shot, along with the snipers dog tag, and three, 10 round magazines with 7N1 ammo). I made an impossible shot with it, that I chalk up purely to luck in front of around 500 people. He hung "Dragunov" on me and it stuck. He was so impressed with the shot that when he "no longer needs it", it is in his will to give it to me.

    A young Korean, well educated nobleman with ample martial arts training and expert in archery. Sometimes consisted the special forces of the time as they were granted prestige and power because of the education and training but were generally very humble because of their skills.

    This is a funny thread. I like it.

    My nick is from a couple of other popular shooting forums where I had to come up with something semi-unique. Had a Ruger Old Vaquero and that Marty Robbins song kept echoing through my head, so...

    Unfairbeef: a beef that someone has with you that has nothing to do with you. Many years and many substances ago; seemed apt at the time, still does. Sort of a representation of life - sometimes you encounter things that challenge you...I like to be 'things'.

    Beef, the unfair kind.
