I've been pretty busy for the last few years, working out of state and putting in 50 -60 hours a week. Due to changing email addresses and servers my log-ins to the other forums have been lost and I haven't been reading anywhere but here.
I recently got the itch to build an AR15 "thumper" and so started looking at the other forums for comparisons and ballistic data between the 3 main contenders. Most of the other forums I was familer with have grown tremendouslly while the quality of the content has seriously gone down hill. I could not believe the amount of BS you need to sift through on most of those forums to find any kernals of real information.
The AR specific sites are the worst. It's enough to make you wonder if they've got restrictions against anyone older than 12 posting. It also makes me wonder what kind of impression the "gun culture" leaves on someone just surfing through the web.
The experience has really impressed upon me how valuble this site is, and what an efficient source of information has been created here.
