"Of
all the Internet sites that I have frequented that
concern the Mosin Nagant series of weaponry, Mosin
Nagant.net is by far the leader. It's in-depth look
into the history, models and variations in text and
photographs set the standard for others to follow.
The forum areas allow collectors and renown experts
as well as authors world wide to share their knowledge
and expertise in real time with others. Mosin Nagant Dot
Net is a "bullseye" on any target. "-

"Although
the Mosin-Nagant web field is still in its infancy
Tuco is its primary caregiver. When the
field grows up it will largely have Tuco to thank
for its upbringing." - Terence Lapin,
author of The Mosin Nagant Rifle.
"Tuco, I
must say some words about your website. I
have surfed through the internet for a long time,
looking for weapons sites, but your site is undoubtedly
the best one. It is packed full of knowledge
and outstanding information. I am very glad
that I found it." - Karl-Heinz from
Germany. Author of Drei
Linien Die Gewehre Mosin-Nagant ( Three-Lines
The Mosin Nagant Rifle )
"Being the
sponsor of Tuco's Mauser Forum and having my banner
on Tuco's Trader has given my Internet gun business, "Allan's
Armory," quite a boost. As a new business starting
in December of 1998, being on Tuco's has helped make
it a success in less than a year. Whenever my site
is mentioned, hits on my counter soar, averaging
about 100 hits per day. Announcements by Tuco of
new sales items I have posted has always increase
traffic on my site. These hits translate to gun sales,
as most of my clients mention they found my site
(and placed an order) because they heard about me
or saw my banner at Tuco's. The profits from these
gun sales far outweigh the cost of advertising. I
consider this money well spent!"- Allan
of Allan's Armory
" The knowledge
level of the Forum's users is truly amazing and the
sense of community within the Forum has never been
duplicated anywhere else. Because of the sense of
community and Tuco's close moderation of the forum,
there is very little of the strife that is found
on nearly every "competitive" Internet
Forum. In addition to my continued collecting activities,
the contacts within the firearms industry that I
made through the Forum recently allowed me to successfully
start my own firearms business as a purchasing agent
for the Law Enforcement community, municipalities
and other entities. As an 01 FFL holder I regularly
purchase firearms from dealers and wholesalers identified
on the Forum and continue to use the Forum as a tool
to locate new sources. Tuco's Collector's Firearm
Forum is a unique place on the Internet."-

"Of the many
dozens of firearms forums Tuco's (in his numerous
departments) is my personal favorite and certainly
one of the best in content, management, layout, and
respect for its participants. So much work obviously
goes into them that it makes one wonder when the
man sleeps."- Rabbit
"Since the
collecting of Finnish rifles is really just in it's
infancy, Tuco's Forum has given Finnish Collector's
a place to congregate and call home - a place where
we can discuss, learn, buy, sell, and constantly
brag about our collections. It also has established
a fair market value of most of the available Finnish
rifles. Tuco has done a fantastic job of keeping
the Forum civilized. I have visited several similar
sites on the "net", and have found that
many of them have turned into "free for all's" with
petty bickering and outright threats. Tuco has made
it clear that this will not be tolerated and the
folks who cause these problems will be banned." -

"Tuco's is
the best site on the 'net for info on collectible
firearms. While the concentration is on Mosin's,
I've gotten good information and advice on everything
from Brazilian Mausers to Iver Johnson pistols."-

"Century International
Arms, strongly expresses its profound gratification
in working together with TUCOs FORUM on the
world wide web, over the last two months. TUCOs
FORUM, has provided an extremely educational, and
informative source for everybody associated with
guns. The website features incredible links of information
in the gun industry, from where to buy a specific
gun, to an entire history lesson on the gun and the
events of that era. Illuminating graphics on the
site are also quite impressive. Flashing captions
have made eye catching attention grabbers, directing
the user to locating hard to find guns. The simplest
instructions on how to preserve your relic of history,
to the latest laws can also be found. The website
is highlighted by the many different chat rooms,
which have their own subject matter. The conversations
that take place have become outstanding resources
of information because of the intelligent and experienced
people that take over as chief speaker during the
dialogue. However, the average amateur has also been
a very important part of the experience of the chat
rooms because all feedback has become valuable information
for the overall success of the site, and an educational
experience for all the participants. Century has
been able to learn what the consumer is looking for,
and appreciate the knowledge of its clients. TUCOs
FORUM has also helped provide Century deliver better
service to its clients by observing the feedback
from the chat rooms. Century knows that the consumers
word is what takes priority, and the information
and client base that we have built up since joining
TUCOs team, has been stupendous. TUCOs
FORUM is the site for the aficionado to to stay on
top of the latest information, and the amateur to
become the ultimate aficionado."- David
