11th Anniversary - The Firearms Forum

Shooter45 · 02-09-2012, 12:18 PM

Eleven years ago today we opened the doors to TFF. We started with about five members who were tired of the bickering and complaining of another forum and wanted to do things different. We did. From our humble beginnings of five members to over 42,500 members today, Tac401, our founder, would be proud. I know I am.

We have the best tech guys on the net answering technical questions and giving firearms values. Any question asked is always answered in a polite and accurate way. There are no dumb questions at TFF.
We have over thirty sub forums so we have something for everyone. Last year we even added a Religious Forum.

One other thing we have is the best members on the www. We also have members who donate cash and gifts to keep TFF running and make our giveaways possible.

Thanks to everyone of you for being a part of TFF.

And before anyone asks, we are not giving away any firearms this month. ( we have to save our pennies til next time)

Shooter - thanks for you and the old timers coming together with the idea and for seeing it through! I enjoy stopping by every day to chat with all of my new friends! I stumbled across the site a year ago next month and was so impressed with the respect among members and the knowledge and willingness to share it - that I just stayed. Maybe I can make it for the next 11 years!
