I'd like to hear the story from Havasuing.
I am sure Brown has the dirt.
That's pretty much how I heard it. LFP had a pretty good sized library and HM was just one mag. He had rags like Guns and Ammo, Field and Stream and a few others, and was looking to dump them. Both were looking at buying it, and I think Chris's was working with Darrin on buying it. Then like you said, Darrin and some others snaked and toss Chris out. '
Not sure how RDP fits in there. His website is like comparing Monet Champaign to Red Mountain wine. That shit hole was never and will never be in the same league as HB,com was. All it did was dredge off the shit that was collecting at HB and move it to a separate dump site. All the better in my opinion. The people there are the ones that stank up the place. They were in need of their own shit hole before old HB.com shut down.
