Linking would certainly serve the same purpose. I wish we could go really back to when I was posting in the 1990's and the board was Gunshop.Com. I remember Oscar Gaddy and others posting. I greatly regret it was long before my interest in Restoration. I did recall their posts, so I knew that the information was out there.
I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.

Hey Ken, I'm bringing this back to the top and also suggesting that you pose the same question in the Classic and Custom Rifle Forum here since some of the guys who share a lot of great gunsmithing and repair and restoration techniques may not post here or even read this forum very often.
No real negatives yet, just the very legitimate concern of keeping things on topic, which is a problem no matter if you are here or on an automotive or antique tractor forum. Would it be against the rules for me to mention that Hillary Clinton is an anti-gun Socialist? Just kidding!
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Can't stand childish bickering but constructive criticism must always be welcome most of us have a specialism in something so if your an expert in stock repairs and you see someone's DIY repair you don't like then, then either lie through your teeth and say its lovely, don't say anything at all, or explain in an appropriate way how you might have approached the issue,
generally here i have been fortunate not to witness much bickering but we all have different idea's about how to go about things and all understand that practicable gunsmithing can be performed at a variety of levels, while best quality work is always going to be preferred sometimes its just no viable economically or otherwise it should and could be a good resource.

Great idea. I let the other Forums know. Regards Ken

This seems like a great idea. I just hope you all use small words that I can understand.
Might want to also include a pinned FAQ with a glossary for the new and newer members just starting out.
I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.

The more this bulletin board is fractured into special interest groups the smaller its following will become. I love German guns. I really ought to visit that sub-forum some time...Geo

I think it's a great idea. I believe it would draw a lot of interest and participation, as well as readers only.
