RJ, Just had a thought today for what that's worth. Not much I assure you.
Anyway another forum I browse thru has been taken over by new owners and in a very short period of time started evicting long time members and clamping down on just about everything. That site was much more about homesteading, hunting, trapping, etc. Very low percentage of firearm, defensive type threads. Not sure who purchased them as NOTHING is coming out. but sure seems as a major push to shut down the free passage of info. I would be curious as to the intentions of the folks questioning you. Timing seems sort of suspicious to me right on the heels of the other site within the past week.
