    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

Ammunition Sources

Rich, would you consider adding a section on the Links page for ammunition sources? I find that target and reload ammo is fairly straightforward to acquire, but really good personal defense ammunition, at reasonable prices, can be a real challenge.

I've found a few good places through TFL, but sometimes I still get stumped. It appears to me that some companies must be dealers for a specific ammo (meaning they get great prices, have a great selection, etc.), and they might carry other ammo but the selection and prices aren't as good. For example, oddly enough, the best place to buy Federal ammo in Arizona is apparently J&G Sales up in Prescott, about 2 hours NW of Phoenix. Took me a while to determine that fact.

So, if members know of excellent Internet sources for ammunition, perhaps we could begin to list them, along with their specialities (reloads, Federal, Remington, CCI/Speer, Cor-Bon, ....). Certainly it may change from time to time, but it appears that many of these distribution companies have long-term relationships with their ammo suppliers.

Just a thought. Thanks.
 
Jeff-
If you have a real good source, I'll add it to the links....email me. If others indicate interest thru this thread, we'll create a separate section.
