Special Notice: Due to an increasing number of bogus signups for the forums (perpetrated by various Internet ner'-do-wells who want to spam us), if you do not receive your acknowledgement within 72 hours of signing up, send me an email.
These forums are restricted to PHA members and shareowners only. (Yes, we check against the member list.) For members of the public who are interested in discussing firearms and the shooting sports, there are many firearms and shooting related forums on the Internet to serve your needs. We have links to a few of them on our Links page.
You must register to use the forum. Since this forum is private, it's preferred that you use your real name when registering. However, exceptions are made for members who do not want to do so. If you prefer to use something other than your name, first send me an email, giving your real name and the name you'd like to go by. Then go on to the forum and register under that name. Forum signups with unknown names who do not make contact first will be deleted.
After you submit the signup form, it triggers an email to the forum administrator, who will approve your account, usually within 48 hours (although it can take longer). When approved, you'll receive an email to let you know that you've been approved as a forum member. Once again, forum signups from non-members or unknown "handles" or "screen names" that have not made contact first will be deleted.
If you experience a problem or have questions about the process, please let me know .
