The Gun Owners' Resource OnLine Encyclopedia |
| The GOROLE is an online encyclopedia that aspires to be, in time, your one stop for any and all firearms information that you may be looking for. Whether it's sniper rifles, shotguns, WWII arms, ammunition or anything else, we're out there scrounging up anything and everything that we can find on it. Yes, this is something of an ambitious (some would say impossible) project but we're not going to quit until we have everything there is to know, all wrapped up in one website for your convenience. Take a look below and see what our contributors have managed to put together so far. |
Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons. - General Douglas MacArthur |

District of Columbia, et al. v. Dick Anthony Heller "Gun control" advocates had long argued that the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution was a state right and not an individual one, but in this landmark legal case, the Supreme Court of the United States held that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm for private use. For the first time in its history, the Supreme Court of United States directly addressed whether the right to keep and bear arms is a right of individuals or a collective right that applies only to state-regulated militias. To the dismay of gun-grabbers across the nation, the Court found in favour of the side of true rights, liberty, and the individual. (click here to read more about the case of District of Columbia v.

| From 1964 until 1967 Winchester sacrificed quality to maintain low pricing and buyers began using the phrase "pre 64" to describe the better made and therefore more desireable Winchesters. |
| Access to and use of the GOROLE has always been and will always be absolutely free to anyone who wants it. There are no membership fees, no access charges or any other hidden costs to our users. "Free" means just that: FREE! And we mean to keep it that way. While we have no problems with taking a few small donations to help cover the costs of maintaining the server and paying for bandwidth, we just don't seem to have gotten around to setting up the donations page yet. So put your credit card back in your wallet.
The best part about this site is that the GOROLE isn't maintained by a bunch of politicians, gun grabbers or others with an axe to grind. This online encyclopedia is maintained by real firearms owners just like you! The GOROLE is powered by WikiMedia software (just like the famous Wikipedia website) and, just like there, you can contribute your knowledge and experience the the storehouse of information that we're working towards compiling. So feel free to search through the database (using the search box on the left side of any page) or just browse through the categories and see what we have that interests you. Not finding what you're looking for? Not to worry. This project is an ongoing work and information is being updated all the time. If what you're looking for isn't here today, it's only a matter of time before it gets posted to our database. |
