Attention New Members and those new registering!
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.

I think I just found the mother of all collectable artillery shells. Gun broker has a 16 inch 50 cal. 2000 pound Iowa class projectile for sale :-o first time I have ever seen one of those for sale, man I'd hate to pay shipping on that puppy. No this is not a add, just didn't believe what I was seeing.

Opps. Tried to post the link last night and just saw that it didn't take. Checked it to see if it got a bid and they sold it for $2000.00.

It wasn't me. Like I said I just did not believe what I was seeing on a gun auction sight nor what was paid for it much less what it would cost in shipping alone. I would like to know who did buy it though.
