We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.
Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Here are a few pics of my Armsport Hawken flintlock.

I found it last March in a local shop $135 out the door.

This was originally a kit and the previous owner never finished the brass. I took off the brass and smoothed everything out. Next is finishing the stock so that the pieces are flush mounted. When the stock was finished, it was never sanded flush and the mounted parts have a pressed in look.
