NorthwestFirearms.com?

Seems Northwest Firearms Community - NorthwestFirearms.com is OFFLINE. The domain expired yesterday and seems to have been snatched up by a German company. What bonehead let that happen?

NorthwestFirearms.com Hacked?

It looks like the folks at northwestfirearms.com have been hacked! When you go to the website you get redirected several times and I haven't been able to reach the website! Anyone else find this true?

Yep, something's up. I tried to get on today, got that weird 'domain' thing?
I hope they fix it. If it had not gone down, I wouldn't have found this site. I guess that's my own personal 'silver lining'.

Robert, I see you're in Stevenson. Are you from there? I'm from there myself, SHS grad. '93.

Huh... I didn't find that to be true. There are asshats on every forum.... kinda like in real life.



Bummer the site went down. Hopefully they can get it back up and running somehow.

Try holding your SHIFT key in while REFRESHING/RELEOADING. The site is no longer, well, a gun forum.

I am on there, and also SGN, never been attacked there like I was here in a for sale thread. Asked a Mod 2 times to remove the posts, never got an answer.

And I see the board just fine, maybe you got banned.

I'm beginning to wonder if I have been banned or something now. Found it very coincidental though that a PING of the website takes me to Germany and back and that the domain is expired as of yesterday.

Just tried it again and got 'The page isn't redirecting properly'.

Now I'm getting something...not the entire GUI but something. It was definitely an issue with them and not me.

JFC. unless you REPORT the thread, the mod may or may not see your post asking him to (re)move it.

I really try not to use my mod red magic marker too often.. but spamming our board with NWfirearms.com is a good way to get banned from here as well..

y'all can be asshats pretty much all you want. I'm pretty mellow.. but try to show a little class 2kool?



PS. I'm a member over there and sgn. and both sites are working fine for me! user error!

Is it possible that YOU got hacked and are being redirected?

I haven't had any problems. All day yesterday and just before I logged in here today.

I'm guessing hacked.
