Semi's and FA may be two differant guns but neither would exist if it were not for John T. Thompson. The love of this design and image should unite us.
The thoughts and problems that semi owners have always remind me how fortunate I am to own my FA.

The current setup is fine.

I have gained a ton of information from this site, and neither my semi, or my collection would be half as nice as they are without the assistance of the RKI's here.
I've done some business as well with members of the board. Got to tell you that its far better and safer than e-bay or another auction site.
Heck even made a few good friends via e-mail from here. I would most likely watch both boards, its just easier to come to one source. I check in at least twice a day sometimes many more.
Even if you look at the other sites that Nick has up dedicated to different models of machineguns, the Thompson is by far the most active.
I prefer it as is, but should the changes be made I'll still be here.
Sure I'm a want-to-be FA owner, but isn't part of the excitement in sharing information about a hobby we all apparently love.

If you separate the sites, some of the same things will likely get posted on both. This may increase bandwidth usage, which makes the site more expensive for the owner.
Also, the owners of the site may not want to separate the forums. Obviously, they have the final say...
This site is great just the way it is...

I am opposed to a separate board because its more fuckin work for me! ![]() |
and that pretty much closes the book on this subject, which is fine with me.
dual posting, having to jump back and forth, blah bla blah.....
although perhaps a semi only FAQ

In the interest of goodwill, I will refrain from replying to Z3.
I think that brian has a great idea and thus I started this thread
http://www.machinegu...t=ST&f=3&t=4235
All you guys that know about semi autos post there with questions that will help out. I know some of them are already in the FAQ at the top of the page, but add to it for the semi auto crowd.
The majority of those that voted for a full auto and a semi auto board didn't post. That was a bit cowardly IMHO, but thats ok. I don't mind being honest and I am open to other viewpoints.
I certainly don't want to create anymore work for Nick, I really didn't think about that. (Sorry Nick)
I realize that most people think that anyone with a full auto is just another rich asshole. I may be an asshole, but I ain't rich!

Have fun. Bang. Bang. Bang. Bang.

You owe me goodwill? Guess you answered my post in a roundabout way......

"With all that being said, a SA FAQ IS a good idea! Too many of the same, old boring (Y A W N) questions. It's enough to drive anyone Nuts!"
LHart, and we don't get the same from f/a folks? But I do agree it sounds great! I know if Jr. makes a Semi FAQ page Nick will most likely post it and host it..... Because that's the kinda guy Nick is....
Arty, Bawahahahahahaha.....

To much related topics and parts and so on... learned so much in 2 years ( how to keep a checkbook in the red),
Us semi guys get invaluable info from the full auto side.
If I ever move to another state or F/A friendly country ( Man, that Murray looks awfully relaxed

I would be F/A in a heartbeat.
But for now, I do have the same passion as all of us, except it takes me
longer to go through all that ammo.
