    I think the "pistol" section should really be called the "handgun" section, as a lot of people think of revolvers as separate from what is commonly called a "pistol," ie: a semiauto handgun. A revolver may technically be a pistol, or maybe it isn't (I've heard it both ways), but "handguns" removes any doubt.

    Other than that, big +1 on separate sections for handguns and long guns!

    We can't call it handguns because it's already called that somewhere else and the software doesn't allow for duplicate names, same problem with long guns.

    Looks like Fenway is fiddling with the names to try to find something workable. Regardless, I'd hope that people were smart enough to see "Pistols" and "Rifles" and work out where revolvers are using deductive reasoning. I can't believe it would be confusing at all.

    Wow. Wish I would have seen this before I paid my Site Supporter dues. May have to reconsider next year.

    Can we get a separate section for weapons of mass destruction? What about a separate section for Hi Points, so that their ads don't mingle with the rest of the good guns?

    Please tell me this is sarcasm..:dunno:

    You would honestly NOT support the site because they split the category??

    Not serious at all. Guess my sarcasm didn't come through clearly.

    Love the site. Have supported everything in the past, and will continue to. Even through life-altering change, like splitting the for sale forum (sarcasm again.)

    Wow

    The change is the change and I'm sure that anyone that does not like it is free to just not go to the classified section anymore. With that said, I expected to see at least one whiner when I started reading this thread. However, was in no way, shape, or form, ready to see all of the brown-nosing.

    I feel like I just walked into a room full of people with poop on their noses! Wouldn't a simple thanks have more than sufficed?:dunno:
