I don't know how many real adults with significant positions in the gun world as authors, collectors, owners told me they had abandoned DGS. A cleanup was long needed and certain people had to grow up too. The site has been retaken from the yobs. And by the way, censorship doesn't have anything to do with this....it's just following the rules of the site - just like one does on every other gun site that I know of. Thanks Dave.

Ironically, the NKVD monitor is being moderated at all. The relative calm has been achieved by stifling opinion that the proprietor disagrees with.

I disagree in that members expressing opinions on both sides of the political spectrum have had posts moderated. I'm all for the clean up.
