That's different. Those are accepted industry jargon. In my workday one RTs for POR, LOP, and LOF after PWHT if the JI calls for it. Don't use FCAW on this job and be sure to the PT and UT certs are in the file and can you tell me the MDMT and MAWP on that s&t? WPS and PQRs better be approved and current, don't get an NCR, and send the PE the MTRs, double check the WFM etc etc.

LGS isn't even the worst one. We'll have threads here where something that has only ever been discussed in said thread gets abbreviated. It's weird.

GTK, RH. Thx

I have seen LGS used as an acronym for Local Gun Shop for many years in many places. Maybe that is because when I am on a gun forum, I usually read and post about firearms and not just controversial "hot topics ".

I agree with the OP (that's Original Poster for the acronym challenged) that most LGS owners/employees have bad attitudes, with very few exceptions.

RTFM I specified LGS was not one of the WEs, I simply chose this time to call attention to the issue as DH still can't figure the abbreviation out. He does have CRS, tho, IIRC, so TTFWIW. And SMD.

Bad attitude is required of LGS owners in order to stay in business. Dong's, Sportsworld, Tulsa Firearms,Sooner and most others.
Like the old saying "Nice guys finish last" and don't stay long in the gun biz.
