Hello Mike,

I could not agree more and must likewise thank you for stating this position.  Some of the recent discourse has truly been toxic, down right embarrassing, and can only be seen as destructive to encouraging all to enjoy this wonderful hobby.

My sincerest thanks,

Michael

Totally agree! I come here to enjoy Winchesters and discussion surrounding them. Some of the posts over the past week or so have really gone off the rails and have tainted the general high quality of our forum.
