Lastgunshops post titled 1873 44 WCF was recently changed to 1892 44 WCF as he mixed up the model. 

This name change of the post title has now linked an old thread of the exact same thread title dating back to 2017

It is in the General discussion forum.

I am aware of the issue, but I do not have a fix for it.  When I changed the title of Lastgunshops post, I was unaware that there was already a post with the exact same title.

Thanks Bert. I wonder if a full stop or different character in the title of the thread would work?

Great idea, and it worked.  I changed the title of the older topic thread by changing “WCF” to “W.C.F.” and it split the two topics into separate threads!

Thanks for the assistCool
