Maybe gun rights issues should have a separate forum. If it did, I would not see that as being out of the "mainstream". But we do separate guns for sale from discussions about guns, and IMO that is of benefit to the BB as a whole.
I have no issues with your proposal if you mean a separate area on this forum.
However; I have this identical post on other gun oriented forums without anyone taking issue with it.

Jim, I don't see how you could have "a separate area on this forum". General Discussion is one forum, Guns For Sale another, Misfires another. What I'm suggesting, as something of a compromise, is that--if there's enough interest in gun rights to warrant its own separate forum, not part of Misfires--then let's have a Gun Rights forum. Maybe you want to start a separate topic on General Discussion, asking the members here whether they think there ought to be a Gun Rights forum. I'm sure Dave will pay close attention, and if there's enough interest, he'll likely create a new forum--just as he created Misfires.
