Especially when fake German dies were allowed to remain on the trader for days.

I just noticed on gunboards today a couple members I'm friends with are banned or suspended. Didn't noticed that last week. Sounds like their cracking down over there.
What be long before gunboards goes the route of the G/K43 forum.

Oh Vic will be at the NGD show this month should I stop and say hi! Maybe he can give me answer face too face and not hide behind his computer screen and deleted threads at will.

If you get an answer please let us know.
As expected new thread about thread being deleted is locked and will soon be deleted.

I PM'd the mod who locked it to see if he'd give me an honest answer/his thoughts on the deletion. I don't expect a candid response. The whole "mods are volunteers, take your beef up via PM" and "offended sensibilities" waffle is infuriating.
Guys, first, I like Vic personally. Gunboards is no longer owned by him, it's owned by a Canadian clickbait company. It's no longer "by collectors for collectors" it's "by a Canadian clickbait company for masterclickbaiters". Do any of you think that a Canadian clickbait company gives a rat anus about American gun collectors? They could care less about our hobby, us, or rifle humping. Substantive discussion is tolerated as long as it is not controversial or offends any sponsors or masterclickbaiters. Gunboards has some good moderators and then some who are excellent for such environment which is trending to intellectual Armageddon.

It will not linger long and dry up like GK. It will trend toward seething imbecility with people trying to exchange good information, lorded over by a few megalomaniacs. Again, the goal there now is selling banners and clickbait. People who question are not masterclickbaiters and are of little use. I'm sure I'll be banned soon as well. People like me are of no use or value there.

"OUTSIDE dealings are not be to be posted here. 3 negative feedback ratings will result in a suspension from Gunboards.com. "
The moderators violated their own rules by moving it to the Seller feedback forum, and now it is deleted completely. It was moved there because they can pre-screen, i.e., pre-censor, comments before they are posted, even though under their own rules such posts as they moved there are not allowed.

Thanks, HB. Bob in St. Louis just said that "someone" moved the thread to Negative Feedback and he then canned it because it violated the rules of that forum. Seems legit to me.

Yes, well it makes perfect sense, considering the source
So, it was at the MN forum, then it got censored, pruned, and dumped in the Negative Feedback forum, where putting it was an express violation of forum rules, which would have gotten any of us "infracted" or suspended. Then it was censored, deleted, and moved to the Mauser forum, censored, then locked. It seems that part of the official excuse included my suggestion that people buy books and do research and "Pointyears" the resident GBtard got confused and offended. Sounds like the 0bama administration.Locked:

Soon to be censored and locked because you guys are asking impertinent questions and "not respecting the moderator":
http://forums.gunboards.com/showthread.php?777281-Why-Did-the-Fake-WZ-29-thread-get-killed
If it keeps up, I predict censorship, thread locking, infractions, and ultimately suspensions for "arguing with the moderator" if you guys continue to ask disrespectful questions.
This issue and the facts are too important to treat with disregard.

Thanks for keeping the dialog open on what many elsewhere and apparently everyone here knows is an important and informative topic. This incident offers an excellent case study for collectors, and cautionary tale for 'fabricators' and fraudulent sellers.
On that note, thanks to the members that are more local to the seller in question for offering timely updates to this case. If this goes full-term to conviction, the case will be a matter of public record and might offer insight into any possible nexuses (beyond simple transactions) between suppliers of dies and stamps and those using them consciously to apply fraudulent/spurious markings for enhanced sales.
I think we got really lucky with this one, too. Most humping is done on areas other than the receiver serial number, usually with re-numbered components like barrel bands, et al. The fact that this guy chose to re-number the receiver is what screwed him. The BATFE would otherwise not be interested if it was just the stock or something not legally regulated. At that point, it would be nothing more than a civil dispute, not a criminal matter. Now we have a full record, a sequence, and illustrative photos of the 'before' and 'after' products. Strong work, guys!
