So what you are complaining about has been moved to a new forum, yet you are still bitching!
This is a fantastic example of small minded people splitting a sport / team / club into silly little factions.
Why not from the top down drop this, either work to support the sport which already has enough critics or leave / shutdown the forum?

Re: So it appears they got their wish
Strange how this appears to have upset people ,at the end of the day a rifle is a rifle etc etc .
I must admit i didnt really have much time for AR type rifles until i tried a few now i can see the point and enjoy shooting them .
When i bought my old pump action shotgun (after trying a friends ) some of my mates looked down their nose at it (and me) but a few tried it then they changed their minds a couple even bought them .
I just think give them all a go so you might like some you wont but give it ago before you decide .
As for forums i know a few of the members here are on at least one other forum im on, so does it matter really if nother forum comes up ?
One day we wont be allowed to own guns ,the more people shooting and owning guns the harder banning them will be .
Lets just stick together and support fellow shooters and defend our rights to shoot and own guns .......
Rant over xx

I shouldn't read too much into it.Ovenpaa wrote:I am always surprised at how many IT types are also FAC holders or is it just that there are so many people working in IT that the law of averages dicates some must be shooters.
Some people train for and stick to a career for most of their working lives.
Others get established in a career. get bored and want to learn new stuff, repeat as necessary - I'm in this camp - grass always seems greener elsewhere type.
IT is one of those jobs that's relatively easy to get into in some shape or form if you have a bit up top and have a mind to change careers.
There's plenty of books on the subject, online assistance, and it's something you can rig up at home to practice.
I was a FAC holder long before I ended up working in IT - starting as a copyright chaser for an IT company and then sort of drifting into software testing and then on to network admin and setting up test packs. I ended up becoming a sculptor. Figure that one out. :)

So if you don't give a toss, one way or the other, why bother commenting at all?Alpha1 wrote:Ginger wrote:So what you are complaining about has been moved to a new forum, yet you are still bitching!
