IMPORTANT: In Photo-threads, each post should contain at least one picture of your own. Quoting a previous post, does not make your post compliant with that requirement. Photo threads are NOT for chatting.
In the process of starting the photo thread cleanup, we are finding that a great many posts failed to follow these simple guidelines. We would love to see the photo threads become more active again … especially since we are culling out so many posts with dead links. (It's really depressing to think of how many great photos may have been lost because the hosting sites got greedy and unilaterally changed their terms of service.) By all means, please post photos. BUT … the photo threads are for photos, they are not the place to introduce yourself to the membership, or to tell us the story of where you found the gun and how much you paid for it and what all you have changed and what all else you plan to change. That's why we have discussion areas for each major manufacturer of 1911s, as well as an area for "other brands." Start a new thread there to tell us your story or the story of your gun, and people can respond and get conversations going.
