Hey, I am just curious
what other good forums pertaining to firearms are out there on the net. This is the I use most often because it seems to be the most active, has many knowledgeable people here, and a large variety of topics, and also, probably most important to me, has sections devoted to most of the different varieties of firearms. I mostly use internet gun forums to do research, get information, or get ideas. The other forum I use is Bullpupforum.com because I have a bull pup and find them to be handy rifles. I have seen other forums online relating to firearms, but I don't know which ones are good. I have seen an M4.net and a Maryland shooters forum. Again, I want to know forums other members of this board frequent, or at least think are worth visiting. |

The internet...... It's the last place I'll go to for operational, real-world information on small arms based on *experience*. I never said it should be the first. Sure, there is a ton of bad info on the net. There is also a ton of good info too. You just have to know how to sift through the bad and good. |

If you can get past the e-penis contests, you can learn quite a bit. The fact is, I see so much inaccurate bullshit posted here in GD I don't even bother anymore-I just don't care enough to waste my time at this point. |

For the Stoner family of weapons,
this site is top. That's what the site is made for. But I don't feel like they do other weapon systems the same service. I mean you can't really expect to be everything to everyone. Every site has a strong suit and a weak suit. If I want to discuss Elmer Fudd style hunting rifles, I would probably not find the best info here. I like bullpups, so naturally I go to Bullpupforum.com to discuss those matters. But I do agree in some way, there are a ton of people on this site, and I think it is difficult to find the same number of people on any other site. Not to mention how versatile this site is. This site does offer a little of every flavor of firearm. |

I go to here, OpenCarry.org and USACarry.
This one has the most variety. OCDO is really good when dealing specifically with Open Carry as well as trying to understand the laws we live under. USACarry... eh, it was the first firearm forum I started going to, and it's sorta an ARFCOM-light, with a bit more bluster and a bit less substance. They do have good articles there every now and then though. |

My main objection to some other
forums is there really isn't a whole lot of people on them at times. Like I can totally start a new interesting thread conversation about some topic, and I won't get a response for like a week. The thread will remain at the top of the list however, but noone noticed it for a while. In some of the sections here it is like that too, but not nearly as extreme. I don't see too many active forums. |
