Its happening....major gun website is offline

[RANGER]

Pretty sure I don’t have to spell it out, but that “main site”named after the black rifle is offline.


Only a matter of time I think before this site goes down the memory hole.


It’s happening.

Hmm. Just browsed around that site from mobile and desktop. Maybe it isn't happening yet?

[LRRPF52]

Came to post the same.

It’s happening.

Any alternative sites are being wiped-out by powers-that-be.

Scary times brothers......scary times.

Almost surreal.

http://Www.Ar15.com is working fine for me.

http://Www.Ar15.com is working fine for me.

What browser? Are you using a VPN?

[RANGER]

Nope, just checked....they posted via their Twitter that GoDaddy gave them the boot

New site should be online at https://www.ar15-backup.com

[Bigs28]

My Samsung galaxy s8 plus loads http://www.ar15.com and i can go all over it no problem.

Clear your cache and try again. You may loading old pages. Or the DNS server you’re using hasn’t been scrubbed yet.

AR15.com loading fine for me, I always have a tab for it up on PC and mobile.

However that is for an existing tab. When i type in ar15.com, I get redirects to the backup URL. Interesting.

Major hosting sites are shutting down sites that don't remove posts inciting violence, insurrection and actions in support of election fraud claims.
Specifically the cries for action and organization for the Capitol building events and ongoing efforts to repeat the same prior to our at the inauguration.

That is why Parler is down. So if people were going off the rails in their General forum, that might be grounds for some action. That is one possibility.

Keep that in mind.

closed for me and the backup is flagged as unsafe???

[kmon]

I am getting the backup, not flagged as unsafe on my PC

[hill37]

Seems to be working on for me. !/11/21 4:55pm was last post I saw.

I went straight to the backup this time ,,,no prob

[grayfox]

Yep, the url is auto-redirecting over to the backup site.

If you sign in to websites with google or amazon or other major player accounts, they are now trying to control what you see. Happened to some friends of my wife.
Don't sign in with any of them.
I'm using duckduckgo and doing fine.

[PVBoom]

I think they found another host. No redirect to backup from a google search of ar15.com (now)

[grayfox]

IT guys, take note!!! A "cloud" is nothing more than some servers in a building, and run by some company... who can take you offline!!!
Have your backup sites spun up and running!!!
Don't give control over to some other outfit.

Harder to stop free speech than the left believes,

John needs to take note about this though.

Remember the movie the Matrix when Neo is arrested? Agent Smith asks Neo "What good is a phone call if you are unable to speak?"

If the anti-gun sever farms continue down this path, it will be up to the firearm and ammo manufacturing companies to build a gun friendly cloud to help all their small distributors, gun shops, and forums. Way easier said than done but very possible. The catch is it would create a single point of controlling firearm sales and information.
