Changes
Key: Additions Deletions
Back in 2010, a vote was taken as to what the best weapons would be when the SHTF. Now, the time has come to vote again. Vote for your favorite firearms and see how they place in the minds of others.
Voting will commence on August 16th, exactly three weeks from today, and will last for one week. Until that time, threads will be created in order to nominate the firearms they believe are worthy of being on the ballot.
Voting will work in a similar manner as the moderator elections. Members will pick their top three firearms in each category. The 1st choice will receive 3 votes, the 2nd 2 votes, and the 3rd one vote. There will be a "voting thread" created on the 16th where the votes can be placed (it is not believed that these votes need be anonymous.)
Any questions can be sent to SasquatchJim. Thanks for your attention.
