Posted 31 Jan 2016 Why is it that my WTB ads are getting moved from the NFA board? There's plenty of other WTB ads on the NFA and Parts board but they aren't moved...what gives? WANTED: Japanese MG-related & Chauchat-related Parts/Accessories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 31 Jan 2016 I moved your WTB ads because the NFA Board is prime real estate, and intended for NFA items such as machineguns, suppressors, short barreled rifles, etc., Your WTB's were for parts and other items that I considered more appropriate to be posted in the WTB section. These are the items I moved: WTB: SG43 Anti-aircraft Sight WTB: Demilled BAR Receiver WTB: PKM Top Cover David Albert dalbert@sturmgewehr.com National Rifle AssociationPast President, The American Thompson AssociationAmerican Society of Arms CollectorsOhio Gun Collectors AssociationThompson Collectors AssociationCarbine ClubGarand Collectors AssociationInternational Ammunition AssociationContributing Writer, Small Arms Review MagazineCo-Author, "Thompson Manuals, Catalogs, & Other Paper Items" Collector GuideOne of the "Other Authors" of "The Ultimate Thompson Book," by Tracie L.

WTB on the NFA board is for NFA firearms only, no WTB for NFA-related parts on the NFA board? 2.) No WTB for NFA-related parts on Parts board, WTS only for all parts on the Parts board? 3.) On the Wanted board any and all items can be posted as WTB? Thanks! WANTED: Japanese MG-related & Chauchat-related Parts/Accessories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gorgon, I'm not trying to create exact rules like you are trying to indicate above. I'm simply trying to keep the NFA Board for NFA items...Items that have NFA paperwork associated. The NFA Board is the most popular board on this website, and it has limited front page space. Since it has the most popularity and activity, some folks would love to post just about anything they can relate to an NFA item there, because it gets a lot of attention. However, I don't really want it used to post WTB ads for parts like you posted, when we have a WTB board. I want people to be able to sell their NFA items. I may move some WTB ads from the NFA Board in particular, if I feel they detract from posting NFA items such as machine guns, etc. David Albert dalbert@sturmgewehr.com National Rifle AssociationPast President, The American Thompson AssociationAmerican Society of Arms CollectorsOhio Gun Collectors AssociationThompson Collectors AssociationCarbine ClubGarand Collectors AssociationInternational Ammunition AssociationContributing Writer, Small Arms Review MagazineCo-Author, "Thompson Manuals, Catalogs, & Other Paper Items" Collector GuideOne of the "Other Authors" of "The Ultimate Thompson Book," by Tracie L.

After 15+ years of posting under the "old rules", I'm just trying to get a grip on how to do things now. Thanks for the info.
