Edit:

What about this?

Or this? - Is everyone sure they don't like the boarder? I thought it tied it together a bit and was more logo-like.

Seriously guys, if you don't like this one, tell me exactly what it is you don't like about it so that I can modify it :) .

my only feedback on this would be the "G" could be more "G like" :) Well, you asked. I think they all look great. Make sure you can make it a two color print job so the t-shirts don't cost a bazillion dollars to get printed!

I agree with JohninMinnesota. Looks good, but the "G" could use a little more work.

The G is a little over done, other than the .308 instead of .45 ACP it looks good

Yep I agree with the rest. Make the G a little less Hitchcockian, and a .45 instead of .308 and I'll vote for it :D (your hard work and dedication are astounding, but I still think the old one is good)

I really like the G, it's the T that weirds me out. ;)

The "G" just looks wacky to me.

As for the casehead image, I don't think you will ever get an agreement. I'm going suggest a wildcat. Since, at the time I write this, there are 442 members, and about 10% of the members produce most of the posts, I am going to suggest for the casehead stamping:

" MNGT "
".45 WINDBAG"

I'm working on the G, it's hard to get the ratio right between it and the other letters without using the current design.

What should change about the T?

I chose .308 because that's the round I took a picture of (the only .45acp I had was wolf, and no one wants that in their logo :shock: ) -That and my personal belief that .45 is a highly over-rated caliber :P .

If we all agree that no one will call me on the inaccuracy of labeling a .308 as a .45acp, I'll do it.

I'm pretty sure I can supply you with a single .45 casing. I'm not sure you could live with the inaccuracy of relabeling a .308 :lol:

It's just my 2 cents, and I'm just one wee person who doesn't post much, so don't change it just on my behalf... but, since you asked :) I think it's the crossbar on top having the more Times-Roman look, with the ends curling down. It leaves some sort of odd shaping or space in the middle of the logo that draws my eye to it unnaturally. I liked the T on the original because it blended nice and smoothly into the linear feel of the other blocky lines. If that makes any sense.

Start posting more often, and maybe you will become part of the ".45 windbag" club :lol:

Hmmm, I don't know if I *want* to be a windbag ... doesn't sound very cute or ladylike! I could be a mouthy b***h, but then I suspect ya'll might not take so kindly to that either ... I'll stick with sorta quiet for now (but I'm keeping my options open!!) :twisted:
