I wanted to wish you all well and thank you all for your time and input. I am leaving the site as I was told my photo of a .223 Colt rifle was not allowed. I had the photo on all of my postings. It is a stock photo of a Colt .223 and I enjoy target shooting as a sport. I don’t hunt animals as I don’t eat them.

I can't understand this "new rule" since I have been reading the forum for years I thought this was odd as there have been many photos of Rolex watches with knifes, guns, cars you name it.

If the moderators. are going to remove my photos because "they" have a problem with it I guess this is their problem not mine.

It is sad when censorship is based upon a personal bias. Is some one really scared of a photo of a gun??? I don't wish to cause a riot I just felt I would not go quietly.

JJ I will miss your postings as I have become quite fond of your views. God bless.

Note to moderators. you should get rid of the smiles with the guns yep this one as there are guns and it might scare someone too

Padi Edit.
Well if you read the very simple rules of TRF which clearly states no guns or Knives etc.We are a watch forum
and there are plenty of gun forums around to to post guns etc.If you want to leave, well thats up to you, but rules are rules and will be strictly adhered too, and the rules are now several years old and come on : well thats just a smiley.

Rule Below very simple to understand.
