On page 32.

I found it tonight while reading the newest issue.

It is posted in various other places on the site.  But I know alot of you don't venture to the dark side.


This is what was written.  It was placed right next to a screenshot of the AR15.com web site.

If anyone doubted or underestimated the fierce allegiance of the semi-automatic rifle community, its will has been made emphatically clear in wake of Jim Zumbo's recent comments disparaging such guns' use and ownership. Website chat rooms, with AR15.com leading the way, stood the entire industry on its ear with an impressive show of mobilization, clearly indicating to all manufacturers, media outlets, etc. that the semi-auto aficianados are a force to be reckoned with. We applaud your commitment and passion. More than just a destination for those who wish to voice their opinions, AR15.com is a great resource for articles, guides, books, product catalogs and operator manuals for semi-automatic rifles. In addition, it offers technical forums and even includes a range locator. American Rifleman readers will be interested in the volume of comments regarding recent issues of the magazine that covered black guns and accessories. And by the way, we're not a bunch of old "Fudds." When it comes to shooting ARs, AKs, M1As, FALs, etc., you won't find a more enthusiastic group of gun guys than those that inhabit the halls of American Rifleman magazine. The Eds.

Quoted: I quoted your alter-ego's post intact.  Therefore my quote was accurate.  Who am I to change myunderpants occasionallyhad to say?

Makes me wonder what is the current number of active users is on ARFCOM... Those that have logged in and/or posted in the last 30 days, minus about 5% for trolls and DU punks.  Right now "Members online is 4774".  Quite a big community in my opinion.
