Why don’t I have permission to post here?
The classified section of Long Range Hunting is just one part of the community. We ask that you make at least 10 posts, and have some interaction with the community in forums other than the classifieds before you can be approved to participate in the classifieds. We don’t charge for the classifieds, but we would all love to get to know who we are dealing with. A great place to start is with an introduction about yourself. Feel free to start an intro thread here .
