Special request to people who have MOLON LABE hats.

I have a request for those of you that I sold MOLON LABE hats to.

Could you post pictures of your hats? Or links to pictures of people in the hats?

I've gotten a few requests from other gun webpages that are interested in these and I wanted to be able to show them some pictures. I am almost computer illiterate myself. :P

Thanks.

Correia- One word, times three:

Scanner, Scanner, Scanner

If you have, or have access to, a scanner, email me. [email protected]

If you do this type of thing regularly (silkscreening and/or press-ons), a scanner can invaluable for your online business. It's easier than you think. I've got a website that I only use to store pictures and link to them. You can use it if you want, and I'll walk you through the procedure.

When I was in my late teens, the Commodore 64's and Vic 20 computers had just come out. I fell out of it for awhile, and only got back into computers in the past 4 years. They're so damn easy now, I've already started my own business repairing and building computers.
So, needless to say, I've dealt with many computer illerates and taught them, and myself, by use of laymen's terms. I can explain certain computer procedures in terms that even my 80+ year old grama understands.

It might cost you a hat, but I'll pay shipping. (Just kiddin, I know you're not in the biz to give stuff away...)

Anything for man that sells "Molon Labe" hats. Keep up the cause, hope to hear from you soon...

Nigel

Well, I know it's not exactly what you were looking for, and you can't really see the label on the hat or the shirt, but I swear I was wearing the genuine article. It's a start...

Here is one of me from the Ohio TFL shoot last spring.



I'll check my pictures from Camp Perry. I know I wore the hat, but I can't remember if you can see the molon labe part on it in any of the pics.

Those hats really are cool. I may have to buy one next time they are available, though I'm not really a hat kinda guy.

The t-shirt on that one guy is just plain awesome, though. I'd pay like $40 for one like that.. but they make ya buy a .50 to get one. Bah!

Correia, if you ever print up any more hats, let us know. I can't leave mine laying around unattended.

I saw another shirt like that the other day. It had a picture of a tricked out AR-15 and on top it said, "Revenge is easy". Some psycho looking brother with a bleached afro was wearing it. That's Hollywood for ya .

It looks like I will be doing another run of hats shortly. I'll probably post the ordering info in the next couple of days. Just hats this time, no shirts. But I will do shirts again in time to give them as Christmas presents.

Anybody have a pic of a tan hat?

And thanks for the offers, I do have a scanner but I haven't been able to get it to work yet. I'll probably play with it over the weekend.

Molon Labe means "Come and get 'em [your weapons]" Do a search on google, you'll find lots of info.

thanks!

oops!!

I knew my latin is pretty crook- but i never thought that I would mistake it for Greek!
thanks for the educational upgrade,
I like the site, and like the "MOLON LABE" attitude too

How would I go about getting one of these T shirts and a hat to the land of OZ?

For all of you guys not in the CONUS, since the customer pays the shipping I'll send hats to outer Mongolia.

Just contact me when you place your order before you send money and I will have to check with the post office to see what the shipping costs are.

Ordering info goes up this afternoon in General Discussion.
