OT The reason for not using real names on board

[Opening Day]

Saw this on Double Gun, thought I would copy it for people that don't believe in the screen name change

I knew Mike Pinkus slightly but he's NOT the first firearms/militaria dealer I've known of that's been set up and paid the price.
This is why I don't post on shotgun forums like the Parker Venue where,by using my real name, I might as well put a beacon on my house advertising the fact that I have valuable guns. IMO the posters over there using their real names and addresses are living in a dream world that could be shattered at any time.
