Not leaving TexasCHLForum.com at all. Just wondering if there were some other forums that could be recommended, perhaps ones more focused on rifles, AR, 3 gun, etc.

This is my home. Just looking for some "travel" destinations.

You might try http://www.cotep.org/ since you seem to like 1911's. That board has much the same tone as this one... good people.

These are two of my favorites other than this one of course.

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to announce that TheHighRoad.us forum is moving to gunrightsmedia.com. This new forum will preserve the threads and posts made by members here since .org and .us forums split in November 2008. Eventually, these will be archived and completely new activism-oriented forums will become public.

The Volk v. Zeanah lawsuit has been settled by Derek buying The High Road forum (including the domain names) from me. Now, the money, time and attention that litigation was taking away from the core task of advocating and defending the Right to Keep and Bear Arms can be redirected to developing a new type of pro-RKBA resource and to support existing pro-gun legal actions.

The work has already begun. Gun Rights Media will be dedicated to fostering pro-RKBA and pro civil rights media – images, films, podcasts, creative writing and interactive content. The goal is to support all who need compelling, memorable arguments for personal liberty – which includes gun rights and more. By embracing more than just gun rights, we can make common our cause with those who previously have not considered RKBA an important issue.

Our other task will be the support of allies, starting with Heller II v. D.C., the second round of litigation against the District of Columbia to implement the freedoms recognized by the Supreme Court decision. I will contribute my time and skills to this cause and help to coordinate the abilities and contributions of others who can meet specific needs as well.

Because of the short notice with the move, I ask that you spread the word about our migration. Please bookmark the new address for yourself, too.

Yours,

Oleg Volk

Quote:
JOINT STATEMENT

Oleg Volk and Derek Zeanah announce that they have settled their dispute related to ownership of The High Road online forum and the accompanying litigation pending in Federal District Court in Statesboro, Georgia.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Zeanah is purchasing from Volk all rights in the forum, domain names, copyright, and trademark rights. The High Road forum will continue to operate at thehighroad.org.

Ownership of the domain name and url of thehighroad.us are also being transferred to Zeanah.
Under the terms of the settlement, Volk and Zeanah have withdrawn all claims and counterclaims before the court and Volk has dismissed his opposition to Zeanah’s trademark application o the mark The High Road.

The forum that resided at thehighroad.us will be renamed Gunrightsmedia.com, and the content created before November 08, 2008 will be removed.

The terms of the settlement are confidential and the parties have agreed not to discuss the terms unless compelled by subpoena except to state that “The parties have resolved their dispute and all parties have dismissed their claims against the other.”

Thanks for all suggestions.

Since the "unpleasantness" with High Road, is the choice GunRightsMedia? ...or is the discussion largely undisturbed.
