silverado427 10,679 Posted June 6, 2019 There's a rumor that Brownells bought ARF.com. If so I hope nothing changes. I get a lot of good deals in EE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyDigz 1,811 Posted June 6, 2019 Not a rumor, it’s been announced and confirmed both on ar15.com and other media. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carl_g 568 Posted June 6, 2019 Dayum... the owner ca$hed out!! I am sure he made a ton of $$$ with the sale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maksim 1,504 Posted June 6, 2019 Surprised it took that long. Good for both of them. Will be interesting to see if other vendors will remain on there. Interesting to see if they release any data or how much Brownells overpaid? In general the prices on forum communities plummeted over the last 5 years.

PK90 3,570 Posted June 6, 2019 The NJ Hometown Forum was dead for 10 days last week. LOL. Only a few diehards left. The pinned tutorials on the entire site have helpful info. Vendors paid out the keister for ads. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sold one rifle (my brothers) and the site mod (i forget the douche's name) caught it. BANNED FOR LIFE despite just paying $300 for a membership. That is until I made up another account. Like I said, there went 10 days without a single NJHTF post. That place is dead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes when i was first getting my FFL and was inquiring on the forum they got pissey about it since i was not a paying vendor... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SgtToadette 59 Posted June 6, 2019 In the event that AR15.com was going to be bought, having Brownells be the one to do it feels like the best case scenario. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Biggest thing that most folks don't realize, most gun forums are owned by a liberal anti-gun Canadian company. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
