    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

Hi all,

I was just looking through all the sections of thefiringline, and thought it would be really cool if we can start a new forum in the conference center titled "Range Reports". My vision is that this section would allow anyone with an actual range report for any type of firearm to be described there.

I suggest this becaue there are plenty of threads that have range reports and even more threads requesting them. It would be a great place to have all the range reports in one spot, not to mention, it would allow people to find the range reports much easier.

Personally, I have purchased quite a few firearms based on some of the range reports i have read here!!

What do you think???

if anyone else may be interested in this type of addition, post a reply. it may help the mods make a decision!!!

l98ster, we won't need any additional comments to make the decision.

Range reports are certainly welcome, but there is no need for a separate forum for them. They fit quite nicely in the forum concerning the firearm type being tested. I feel it would be counterproductive to have rifle range reports, for example, in the same forum as semiautos, revolvers, and shotguns.

We'll leave it as is.
