Hmmmm... I like it. Of course, there are variations:
One possible: <UL TYPE=SQUARE>
[I.]Semi-Auto
[II.]Other (incl. revolvers, derringers, XP-100's, pepperboxes, full-auto, etc)</UL>
But then there's the question of the all-encompassing issues, so I agree that we should at the very least also have an overall General Handgun Forum. So: <UL TYPE=SQUARE>
[I.]General Handgun Forum
[II.] Semi-Auto Only
[III.] Other</UL>
But here's a problem. Doing just a quick survey of the current top 38 topics (I got lazy), I see that:<UL TYPE=SQUARE>
<LI> 21 would fit into Semi-Auto
<LI> 13 would fit into General Handgun
<LI>
4 would fit into Other (all revolver]</UL>
Hmmmmm... We've got a bit of disparity, here.
Now we COULD go with: <UL TYPE=SQUARE>
[I.]General Handgun
[II.]Semi-Auto
[A.]..
Glock OR 1911
[B.]..Other Semi-Auto
[III.]Other Non-S.A.</UL>
Now, that would surely subdivide a LOT out.
Hmmmmm... But I only count 6 of those 38 posts (from their titles only) that would obviously subdivide into II(A). So maybe that's out... Shoot, there's 4 or 5 HK posts, there, too. Now it
could be: <UL TYPE=SQUARE>
[I.]General Handgun
[II.]Semi-Auto
[A.]..
Glock OR 1911 OR H&K
[B.]..Other Semi-Auto
[III.]Other Non-S.A.</UL>
NOW we have some pretty evenly laid-out pistol fora, with only FOUR separate areas!
Am I making this too complicated?
L.P.
