you go through the past few pages of this board and about 30% of threads are about guns.

not about hunting. not about scoping out some land. it's about guns. at some point, this board ceases to be the outdoor board and becomes the gun, hunting, and fishing board.

you don't see the pages filled with useless threads about the best reels or best boats, although the kayakers post a lot about their rigs, but at least usually keep them in a single thread.

i really don't like all the threads about the guns. i don't care that you bought one in the mail and it just arrived. can there be like one gun enthusiast thread and keep all those type of posts in that thread? please, we don't need more talk about guns. that talk is really boring.

i'd honestly like to read a lot more fishing threads. or hunting even, especially reports. but the guns threads need to be made to a minimum.

Usually titles tell you what threads are about (except on the OT), and you can choose to read or not read them.

Being on the OB helped me buy some weapons. I approved of gun threads and gun discussions.

that is true, but when a theme becomes so prevalent on a board for which its relevance is only tangential, it becomes problematic for the functioning of the board.

in order to get rid of a problem you sometimes have to bring light to the problem. short term set back, long term gain.

In all honesty, no one here gives a shite what you think.

That's a little OTish but what do you contribute to this board? Most Everyone here likes shooting guns. If you don't like that then leave.

ETA: If I remember correctly all I've ever seen you post here about is the CCA.

So what I'm getting from your post is we need a separate gun talk board.

Awesome! Chicken, get on that shite!

Is this the thread I post pictures of my new guns in?

Personally, I think there's too many threads about hunting. I don't hunt so y'all quit posting about it.

I want more kayak, gun, hiking, fishing, gun, boat, lawn, gun, building and shop/mancave threads.

I got my limit of greenheads this morning and was back in bed with the old lady before 8. It was hot as balls! How did everybody else do?
