    Enfield -Rifles .com site blocked!

    This morning I went to open "Enfield -Rifles.com" to check the forum. I got a page that states
    "Site blocked" Weapons content!
    This was on Firefox system. It would open on Chrome. But now it doesn't open on either.

    Can you guys check to see if it's something with my system; or something more sinsiter?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I would say your company IT people have been monitoring your web activity, and have now blocked that website to you.
    Most of the firms I've worked at in the past 10 years in the UKicon have all blocked websites and forums with any 'weapons' content.

    I agree. I can't open it from the office, but my iPhone opens it immediately.

    It's fine on my home computer but not on the work one. I spoke to our tech guy today; he doesn't know why it's blocked. He is based at another branch and he has access.
    But I can't waste his time with it because it's not work related.

    Thank you guy's for checking it out for me

    I've seen that before in a business environment.

    Your company is using an add-on product on their firewall that comes with a huge listing of sites it blocks access to, such as adult and gun sites.

    Lots of hotels and restaurants use this type of censorship too.

    When attending our country's biggest gunshow we'd travel to a certain hotel that had exactly that kind of censorship. I called them on it but they were completely overzealous and over self righteous so we stopped using them... It was this very site that was blocked too.
