A List Of Gun Related Links - Post Yours

[Eli Chaps]

Thanks to this place and others, I've picked up a list of gun related links over time. Some stuff I probably never would've found just doing internet searches. Companies and products I'd never even heard of and links to forum posts (here and elsewhere) that serve as excellent resources.

I thought it would be cool if we posted what we have in our bookmarks and sort of create a library of helpful links.

Now, keep in mind they should be relevant, as in gun stuff, hunting, camping, that kind of thing. I don't think we want to see all of the bookmarks some of you folks have!

First though, for those who are new to posting links in threads a quick tutorial:

1. Any time in the following that you see me put in a space, it is something I have to do in order for you to actually read the line I'm typing otherwise the computer will read it as an actual link and you wont see the codes and such. So when posting links, LEAVE OUT THE SPACES.

2. To post a simple link requires the use of url tags. Tags are always placed in brackets and there is the opening tag and the closing tag. They look like this: Opening tag, [ url ] and closing tag, [ /url ] Remember there isn't actually spaces used. These tags go at the front and the end of the link you want to post. So you copy the link from your browser, type [url ], then paste the link, then type [ /url ]

For example, to post a link of the MO Home page it would look like this, without the spaces:

[ url ]http://www.marlinowners.com/forums/index.php[ /url ]

3. If you want to name the link and hide the actual link and make it so we click on the name it is very similar except you use an equal sign on the opening tag, then place a bracket at the end of the link then type in the name of your choice then type in the closing tag. Using the same example and wanting to call it Marlin Owner's Home Page, it looks like this:

[ url = http://www.marlinowners.com/forums/index.php ] MARLIN OWNER'S HOME PAGE [ /url ] Remember, no spaces

You can post links either way.

Okay, hopefully that helps, on to the links...

From there is the sub-folder Reference Material. This includes various things I like to keep as references to include forum posts. This builds up a lot as sometimes I spot things and don't have time to go through them so I'll bookmark them until I can get back to them. Then on occasion I go back and weed them down. Hopefully, I have this list weeded down to just good resources. Again, no endorsements, just stuff I personally find interesting and in some cases helpful.

Shorty picture thread. What have you cut down

Woosh, alright, there's what I got. I left out specific items and posts that were just things of interest to me and not necessarily the majority.

If you find any bad links, let me know.

I generally don't bookmark major stuff like Marlin, Leupold, etc as that is easy enough to remember and find. And I don't bookmark our Industry Partners like Skinner Sights, WWG, Boyd's, etc as I just come here to find them.

I think it would be great if others posted their links. It could make for a really great resource.
