The user databases of the English and the Norwegian forums are now merged. This means that you can log on to both forums with the same user name and password. The Norwegian forum is currently closed for the public, but now international users are allowed see what is going on there. There are some interesting gunbuilding threads there right now with a lot of pictures. Good luck!
