Cherry Bomb, some fraction (large or small) of the nearly 8000 members who visit this site ARE "the people who are about to bid on a web auction gun". It may be that the so say all of us consensus gets old when the target of complaint is so easy; the site isn't called Doubleguns For Dummies. However, many of us are also relatively new to the game and appreciate the repetition of bedrock responses dealing with how to buy, shoot, and maintain doubleguns. Tolerating the occasional ego display is a small price to pay for the breadth and depth of information available here. We're all free to take what we need and ignore what we don't.
