I also frequent "Frugals" and the "Gunsnet.net/AK47 forums. I also read on a few police forums.

Careful there, PSSSniper, you know what happened the last time you posted a picture on the internet of someone wearing a pro-gun t-shirt.
:-p


Personally, I'm a fan of cz forum www.czforum.com and fal files www.falfiles.com

Gotta throw in my two-bits' worth...

www.jouster.com

Dick & Gloria Culver's CSP GunTalk Forum. Not quite the volume as here on TFL, but definitely a class act, all the way!

I must be highly satisfied with TFL, because the other sites seldom even rate bookmarking, and I find that I only go to them to check out a link posted on TFL.

I know that's got a LOT to do with the TFL moderators, administrators, and Rich keeping TFL civil and topical.

Shooters has gone through the troll wars, with their attendant bad manners, lately but there are still some good gun folk there. www.shooters.com

The Sixgunner is also a good site. It's focus is on revolvers with a lot of single action talk. It makes for a nice change every now and then.

If you are interested in IPSC or IDPA type of shooting the best site on the Web is Brianenos.com, in particular his forum. It is the only place I know of where contributors include several world class shooters such as Brian, Matt Burkett, Rob Leatham, Pat Harrison, and so on. It's worth a look.
