FLYING LEAD is down because the dumbass server operators decided to make some changes with out telling anyone. Chips busting arse to get it back up.

haven't had any trouble here.

I never thought it was Chips fault, nor the gang here either. I work for a website and the stories I could tell you......

In fact we are having new servers built and are gonna have to move the whole friggin website to the new servers as our web host was not paying his bills! We have paid him faithfully and he has not paid the server bill and they flat shut us off Thursday and told us if we wanted the site back up we had to pay them! We already paid the host, but the server site said too bad, pay or stay off.

If you want to find business ethics in the internet, you'll be looking for a while.

I pretty much go to two

I am mostly hereb or at Flying lead. I once in a while stop in at another one or two, but mostly here and Flying lead.

When a bunch of the guys left here some years ago, I lost track of em. Then I found the site and between the two i can keep in touch with almost all my web shootin buds.

One thing that pisses me off on other forums is that everyones a ranger, or green beret, here people are honest, I like that, because i can smell a faker from miles away, and I dont want to put up with bull-sh-it

Thumbs up

Glad to hear some news on F/L, as I kept getting a 404 error and once even got a "FORBIDDEN" error message! Weird. I cruise a lot of the gun forum sites, but F/L and G&G are my two favorites.
Seems there have been a lot of problems lately - hackers crashing sites, server problems/maintenance, etc. Just have to wait it out, I guess.

So I have noticed Joe. Its G&G all the way for me baby. I use to hang out on K98 and G&G then about the time G&G changed ownership I started geting more involved with other types of rifles and K98 was over for me. Now if I have a mauser ? k98 is the cream of the crop in IMHO.


By the way JOE, who is the guy in your avatar?
