More will come in the next few days. We still have to get the "boss" over here. 8-) :lol:

Hi guys! I can help some if you need me to. Just say the word.

I think the amount of sub-forums you have on here is plenty. I like that there aren't 100 different places to post stuff. This way, the sub-forums you do have will get a lot more traffic.

Sure, as long as you don't have any money!

Is there a way to get this to list near the top in Google when doing a search on "Mosin Nagant"? Dumb question... But new members would prove helpful in establishing a good member base. Just a thought.

Agreed. Keep it simple. If more are needed it should go up for discussion?

In fact, I was thinking about making this the "Mosin and All Collectible Military Firearms" forum and eliminating The second down forum of "All Collectible Military Firearms". We can "tweak" things as we go.

May I suggest a historic photo sub forum?

BTW, thanks Dolk.

I think if this is a Mosin specific forum at it's core (like the URL would suggest), then maybe Mosins should have their own place? Might be better for people who just come across this place via a search or whatever.

Doesn't matter to me personally, though. I don't even own a Mosin anymore, so I'll be posting in the other forum. :D

Check out the photo gallery... ;)

I still have to mess with the Photo Gallery. ;)

It is capable of having individual private galleries. (A spot for individuals and not as a "group").

Cool, we can all have our own "dolk" page.

I'd suggest a Mosin page, and then a catch-all gun page. No need for one from every country.

Or, if you really wanted more division, could do Rifles, Shotguns, Handguns, Black Powder... but I think just one for mosins, and one for everything else is fine for now. Maybe once traffic jumps you could do more.

A section for Laws, Crufflers, and CCW might be useful as well.

I agree on a photo section, someplace to keep tomaustin locked up (no offense Tom, I love the photos it would just be nice to have them in their own folder instead of all over the mosin pages).

"historic photo"


Sub forum to here?

Or separate forum?

Either/or. Just so they have their own spot.

I have been exploring this new cave and had a problem trying to post a dirty, I mean private, message. I am not all that computer savvy but after composing the message I couldn't find the post or send function.

Amen. Love the photos Tom, but yeah... They need a place other than the discussion section.
