I have a definite soft spot for PDO. I hope they're up and running again very soon.

I agree that it might not be what it used to be, but there are good reasons for that (the dude who ran/runs it started law school is one), and for a time it was a great place to start if you were doing web research on guns and CCW & etc.

Good luck to them.

I have not visited PDO since finding this site. I lost interest in it when I saw how much better this site was.

The stupid rating system they put in effect after getting rid of the Mods really ran it into the dumper. This site is infinitely better.

I agree with you, it was a venerable site. As you can see there are other opinions about that. Unfortunately, SLMN.ORG doesn't show any info either. This being Mark's home site and not being maintained doesn't bode well for PDO. DC and Handgunlaw are great sites as well and there are others. It's just a shame to lose one more site for gathering info and discussion among friends.

"OK. . . . .Bumper? Moderators? . . . . .. do I get any brownie points here? Maybe a free gun or something?"

We're all out of free guns - we gave them all away already. Maybe you'll get a DC Bumper Sticker but, I doubt it.
Brownie Points you'll get. Consider that done!

I could never figure out the why's for the ratings, it just turned into a negativity contest...I quit interacting months before finding this site, but still enjoyed the unique reference/info segments of the site.

I tried setting up an account there years ago and had registration problems. I e-mailed Mr. Solomon, but never got a response or was ever able to register.

Their loss is DC's gain.

Bingo. Got rated two zeros on PDO for telling a guy who inquired about self defense shotguns to buy a Remington 870. PDO became junk a couple of years ago.
