This is the WWW and there is room for all.:-)

"NOTE" I do have to admit, since Bill sold it, things have gone down hill.He is still an Adm there, and visits often. I never saw Bill as a tyrant as some here have mentioned. I think he started the best outdoor site on the web, and for years keep it at the top.


I still visit the site almost daily, still some good people on the forum. But the gun technocrats seem to have moved on and it seems the political/conversation forum have taken over which is ok. I like to check the classifieds there for Contender stuff and occasionally argue with one of the leftists that post there same as here. Bill has never given me a bad time though we have had a few words at times. The forum seemed a bit heavily moderated but so what it is their forum! What I am seeing is that in general hunting and fishing forums are losing members steadily. This is a fine forum and the lack of moderation doesn't bother me any. I figure I will visit Graybeard outdoors til it's over periodically with no complaints. I have been a member there long enough that I have changed my ways from the old days so maybe a bit of moderation was good for me.
