I hope this board makes it, it would be nice to have just an Uzi page. Ordered my Vector just before all this stuff  happened. I was going to wait for a group purchase saw one come up and nabbed it, Thank GOD!! Now I'm thinking about selling some of my other guns to pick up a mini before its to late too. I think I'm hooked.

So do I! &nbsp :D

To give you an idea of my commitment, I set everything up (paid expenses) for a year in advance.  IMHO, we have an opportunity to fill a void with this board, and there's every reason for it to succeed.

Spread the word!

I won't be much help since I'm just getting my first full size semi Uzi, I did own an Uzi pistol years ago, sold it when everyone was running around in a panic for double what I paid, not one of my better moves. I'll definitely have more questions than answers so bear with me, glad to be aboard. &nbsp :D

:) cookie- what kind of expenses are involved in getting a board up and going like this ? Do you feel it would help to pass the offering plate so all the expenses don't land on the shoulders of one or a few ? I would be happy to share in the cost this forum requires just let me know as I plan to use this forum a great deal. UZI Talk has already been of great value to me. Thanks for filling the need! &nbsp :D

Jimbo-

In the near future, I may add a "donate" button, where members could send 5 bucks or whatever if they feel generous. This is not a commercial venture, but of course it'd be nice if it was self-supporting. I'm still giving thought to this issue, and I'll let everyone know what (if anything) I come up with.

Thanks.

P.S. Donations from moderators would not be accepted.

I noticed over on the 1911 forum than some of the members have a nice kind of shield or medallion next to their names that says "Forum Supporter. Do you know if that has to do with money they have donated up to a certain level ? $25, $50 ? I used to run fund raisers for political candidates in the past and those who donated always liked to be recognized, they even tended to give more when being recognized. FWIW.:angel:

I've created a group for this purpose - but so far no one has been kind enough to donate. :confused:

If and when anyone decides to support the board with a donation, they will be recognized. Here's the thread announcing the UZI Talk Supporter status:
