That has been what I have been saying for some time now. DON’T TALK ABOUT IT!
You are tipping the other side off and making yourself (and the rest of us) a target.
Not that a 15 minute check of my ordering history wouldn’t tell someone I like to reload.
The government isn’t monitoring message boards and forums for a complete history of anyone’s gun ownership. More likely they would be monitoring it for threats. Talking about guns doesn’t tip anyone off, as you said...they can pull up your registration history, the number of times a check has been run on you, the number of traffic tickets you ever recieved and probably what you ate for dinner last night. Talking about it publicly doesn’t contribute anything they couldn’t already get.
I wonder if in the interest of security JimR might be able to erase all our posting histories...just a paranoid thought....
