Where is everyone?

Doesn't seem to have been much action on this forum in quite a while. Most of the threads are really old. Is everyone going somewhere else?
 
It just seems that younger folks don't do forums anymore, they just go to more general places for their opinions or exchanges.

My best guess, scattered to other interests. I see some forums have lost a percent of membership and the folks staying behind are discussing mostly "off topic" subjects. Some are still political, many are not. 2A topics are like a sidebar.

Pro 2A folks have seen enormous wins in the last 10-15 years and less. Many of these discussion groups had a common focus - winning. Well, OK, we've not exactly "won", but we've accomplished a lot.

Look to Heller, MacDonald, Bruen, Constitutional Carry, etc.
I'm not saying it's over, but the emotion/passion has diminished.

No idea where you are, I'm on the east coast. I spend a fair amount of time on a PA forum, PAFOA, and a MD forum, MDShooters, really only because they are local to me, but they are also very busy compared to this group.
And I also indulge other hobbies/interests by spending time in groups that have nothing to do with guns or the 2A.

Obviously I still peek in here occasionally, and mostly lurk, then move on.

Yea, Arizona here. I am on the 1911 and Glock ones. We did get a little off and heated here, miss the old ones.
 
Still can not figure out just why this place died the way it did. We had so much traffic here back in the day.
