Common sense police on a raid?
Should've said I opened the site with Opera accidentally, a good while after the previous attempt with Chrome, and since neither Opera nor my antiviral software blocked the move, I reconed either the problem had been fixed or the Crome was paranoid. Now that I see other people having the same issue with different software, including applish - well then, there IS something wrong with the site.
I drop by regularly at the Russian Gun Lovers branch of Shotgunworld, as a self-designated expert on the earlier and rarer Russian guns, and it's grown into a habit. So I hope the problem is taken care of soon.
