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.

a true testament to the benefits of comercial contracts for production and R&D ,

the pure ability of three procuction facilities to arm two nations with the P14/M17 under WWI demands and constraints spoke volumes about capabilities

and the ingenuity of the evolution of the M1903 rifle under similar production constraints in WWII speaks equally loudly to ingenuity

these forever changed the arming of nations
