What brought you to Gunbroker?
Just curious how everyone came to find this site. Me, I believe I got here from an informational site, http://world.guns.ru. They had this link at the bottom of their page:

Looks like GB has come a long way since that graphic was made.

Guns come up occasionally (or in rashes) and there's been a few "looky at the new toy" posts that referenced the auction side, then I saw the wanted/forums...0 -

Some fat guy at a pawn shop told me that if I wanted to see some hilariously incorrect, red neck farm boys tellin each other how brave they are, I should come here.
I fit right in.

Back in our early computer days, my wife found this site for me, that was 1998 or '99. I looked around a lot and bought a little. Never got on the forums till '03, never knew even WTH a forum was. 0 -

This one time at band camp.................. 0 -
"Ask the Experts" brought me here - I was doing a Google search for the reliability of a bunch of different firearms when I first started shooting and got hooked on what I read here.
BTW, www.world.guns.ru is an awesome site. Not updated as often as I'd like, but that's because I'm an impatient greedy American.[:D]0 -

I surfed the auction side for probably 1 1/2 years looking for whatever education I could glean. One day I finally notice there was a forum side. A new world was opened to me.
Same here.0 -
I googled "guns for sale" one evening looking for a paticular rifle back in about '02. Didn't get hooked the forums till '04 though. 0 -
Tipper Gore was telling me about her dick of a husband inventing a thing called the internet one night over drinks and some ahemmmmmmm and surfed in after a smoke. 0 -
I Googled to find an auction because I had a few guns and some ammo that needed to be sold. I stayed here because for the most part the members seem to be mature and a cut above what is on the other gun forums. GB seems to have a minimum of SHTF postings and the "versus" postings. Also fewer "pouncers" jumping on newbies for honest mistakes. If you surf around I think you'll find that we have it pretty good here. 0 -
I was searching for info on hunting elk with BP and stumbled into that section of the forum. I was then drawn to GD like a moth to a flame...been getting burned ever since.[;)] 0 -
...I have no recollection of how I stumbled into this dark abyss. I started buying on the auction side in 2000, but didn't wander over here until '03. I didn't know what a "forum" or "discussion board" was. 0 -
My better half, he pretends he doesn't know I'm on here![;)] 0 -
Time to kill might as well be here 0 -
I remember a guy telling me he was an FFL and when i took the course to carry a firearm for security work I called him. He e-mailed me 2 auctions he recommended from GB and said he would do the transfer for $15. 0
