The Gun Blogs

Many of the gun blogs are powered by wordpress. The latest version has just come out. This release was cooking for over 6 months!

Be careful when upgrading and make sure you have a backup of both the files and the database.

I messed up the upgrade on my blog (The Firearm Blog) and it had to be taken down for a few hours.

The upgrade instructions are here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress

Many people do not like the new admin theme. If you don't like it have a look at this theme.

I interviewed Drake Clark from Magpul about their new Masada rifle, the firearms industry and internet marketing.

I also discussed US procurement politics, the PDR (Personal defense rifle) and PMAGs

I hope you enjoy it. Read it here.

This is what I think.

This post refers to my blog The Firearm Blog and was originally posted here:

I approve all comments on my blog before they are shown. This is to prevent spam comments, mainly medications of dubious origin, from being displayed. This is common practice.
When checking the latest comments on my site this is what I came across:

This is blatant SPAM. I cannot believe DoubleStar Corp. would resort to such tactics. The commenter makes a vague one sentence comment about the blog post then goes on to push the Star15 rifle and link to it.
Have any other gun bloggers been getting this SPAM?
I will be contacting the company and asking them for any comments, ha, about their SPAM comments.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Steve. I am pretty new to the Gun Blog scene. Hi!

I am trying to compile a global "Gun Price Index" to see how gun prices compare around the world. Hopefully we will be able to see which countries are paying too much and who is getting guns cheap.

Unfortunately I only speak english and do not have local knowledge of other countries. So I really need help. Please check out my progress on my blog:

The Firearm Blog: Gun Bloggers and gun enthusiasts, I need your help!

If you can offer any help or have any suggestions please post a comment on the above blog entry or email me (my email address is on the left hand side of my blog).

Many Thanks,

Steve
