    Anyone else experiencing this?

    No one is making the argument that it isn't a popular section of the site. There are approximately 3,600 threads in the current version of the 1st and 2nd Amendment Defense section, and that's after forum staff deleted a large portion of it as a result of some really deplorable comments that...

    I sincerely don’t go looking for arguments or seek out turmoil. There’s a lot of vitriol in that section of the site, and it’s caused some division on the forum (even amongst the mods), which isn’t very productive. Most of what I say (when I’m not commenting on WWII militaria) is that the...

    Anyone else experiencing this?

    The feeling is mutual. I've also really enjoyed reading your posts and threads across multiple forums over the years. That said, it's okay to disagree once in a while.

    Respectfully disagree. That section of the site is full of politically charged rhetoric that has nothing to do with the furtherance of K98k collecting. As Mike said, it's just creating problems.

    SOS Hotel change for some of us

    Use of the checkered buttplate with Byf44 HT

    Most g-block byf44s will have checkered butt plates, but as Brian mentioned, that’s the approximate letter block that they began to phase in that feature, so it’s possible that smooth butt plates were still being used. What’s the approx serial number within the g-block of the rifle that you’re...

    VOLUME II - holiday raffle!

    If I win, I request that the books be donated to a junior forum member just after Bruce writes a personalized note in the front cover where he admits his undying love for the Michigan Wolverines.

    K98 SS Contract - legit?

    The opportunity to buy an original SS rifle doesn’t arise too frequently in Canada. It would be a pretty sweet first rifle.
