JohnF, Try doing a google for Midway and then clicking on the site. Sometimes you can get access through a search and not going directly to the site

The school I have been working at just blocked the predatormasters.com forum. The reason it gives is Guns and Ammo. This website will be next I'm afraid

 

[huntbigbucs]

the best thing to do is buddy up with your technology coordinator at the school. Most tech coordinators log into the state's filtering servers and have control of what your schools can filter and not filter for your IP range (school) issued by the state. Odds are they (your tech guy) probably enabled the guns and weapons catergory, because i can still access all gun sites from my desk at work, so its not a sweeping change applied to everyone on the state network

if your tech guy logs into our system, then he can make exceptions and allow certain websites like midway.com, while still filtering sites about gang bangers with guns. if you ask nicely they probably will do it, but then again some are weird and think they have some sort of power since they control what you view and can't

if this site ever gets blocked, shoot me a PM :wink:

Brownells is GOOD folks. They've been around for a long time. I buy one of their catalogs every 3-5 years just to look-see at the neat stuff they handle.

I'll second that. They really do believe in customer service and if you ain't happy, they will fix it.
