I believe these forums do need some overhaul in the categories. Here's some apparent issues:

1- Build it yourself: mixture of assembly posts and build posts. I would suggest you re-org into two categories. One for assembly of kits and the other for building/machining and machine posts.

2- No RKBA category like the old days. There should be a clear category for RKBA issues and announcements so that these don't become buried in 'General' or less so in "legal".

3- General Firearms category is becoming popular. I suggest breaking it out into one for ARs and deriviatives and one for other. In fact, you may want to devote a category to M1A/M1/M14.

Although gun and knife are gone, there is some very good competition out there that seems to mandate changes to stay ahead of the pack.
