Hey Pete,

My sincerest thanks

However, I guess in my mind - this site will not be - ever - "Member Only". That's kind of "me". For the same reason I have a problem with "banners" in the Forums. Sure - I know they pay the bills, but I hate banner ads. And that's just me. Most sites use those - like the Glock Forum, 1911 Forum, etc.

See, folks who understand the value of the Forum, such as yourself, will want to support it in a private fashion. For that - I'm more then grateful and want to build a different paradigm - and I think it can be done. As well - that's just "me" as well.....

Please be assured - this Forum will NOT be shut down - that I can and will assure you. In the meantime, while I figure this out, please know how much your post is appreciated, and your support noted. It's folks like you - and thousands of others - that make the "Lugerforum" a community. It's not anyone else - it's the collectors and enthusiasts who visit here each and every day. Those that post and those who simply "lurk" and post on rare occasions. This Forum is for them - and folks just like you......

For that - you have my support and my sincerest thanks....

- John D.
