Jkinkade - did you actually read the rules or just come here to complain without taking that essential step? Here's a handy link to the rules: http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/...d.php?t=355154

Pay close attention to the very first rule in that thread. We were getting very tired of certain members who took advantage of the free storefront service without providing anything in return. All we asked for was a little contribution in the form of advice or knowledge that most every member here has, but some are not willing to share.

Goodbye!!!!!

Jkinkade: 1 post in Handguns: the Revolver. 290 consecutive posts in the Gun Show. 3 posts here to complain.

With those comments, it's easy to see that you do not and never did have anything to contribute to the mission of TFL. Um, no. The buying and selling of gear and guns is not the mission of this board.

Buh-bye...

I always thought forums were a online place where you could share info and experiece's and such with each other good or bad. Sure people want/need to sell things to fund other projects and the like. But as another Moderator said people are taking advantage of a free store front. Well in my eyes those people should help sponser said websites then. Just my opinion though, been on other forums were all they do is register to sell thier stuff and really never offer anything benificial to that forum. Gets annoying after a while.
