Gee you'd think that the reason would be obvious, I have no reason or purpose to bad mouth Allpro, Inchworm, Trail Gear or any aftermarket supplier, but MC would have a very valid reason to not allow anyone from TG to participate on the board. THEY TRIED TO SCREW MARLIN!!! I personally prefer MC and that's my choice.
Couldn't have said it better myself! I know quite a few people on here still willingly purchase from the evil supposed twin, some even do business for them, but I can totally see where having your contact go through them would pose an issue.
