Anybody know what happened to this site.  It's been offline for almost two weeks.  I've tried a number of different devices, and search engines.  Search just times -out, and IP can't be reached.  Just wondering, if the Shadow knew anything?

It is still there as I just checked it using a desktop shortcut.  Like Intercooler said some time ago when a mag for S&W 10 XXseries was listed for sale, it is a virtual ghost town. Think Palbo bought it.
Did you go to ar15armory.com? Once you get to that site, you can open 10mm link.

The AR15 Armory.com link doesn't work, it just times-out.  Tried multiple search engines [Bing, Yahoo, etc.]  Last time, that I was one the site was last Tuesday.  I just wondered if they were doing a revamp, or shut-down.

Strange. Was able to get it until a few minutes ago by typing in the web site. Now, it will not work when I type in web site on Edge or Google but I can click on my desktop shortcut, and it opens .  ???

I just went over and logged into the site...It seems to be working.  With Google Chrome

Why settle for less?

You have everything you need right here.

Not sure why those remaining stragglers haven't jumped ship and joined up over here. It's dead over there.

Zephry, you may want to contact your ISP.  This sounds like a technical issue that is localized to you.  I was able to browse the site just fine.

If I were to guess, I would say that your ISP is caching DNS records longer than they should, and that ar15armory had an A-record change that your ISP has not refreshed.  This would result in exactly the behavior you are describing, and some ISP's are known to have out of spec ttl's on DNS records to reduce external DNS traffic.

That said I was amazed at how dead the 10mm section has become there.  Most recent post is May 8.  Only one sub forum has had activity in the last 45 days.  Three of the ten sub-forums have not had activity in 2017.

I gotta say, that place is dead.
