New Armory Feature – Embedded Firearm Links

The armory continues to grow and I am excited about the way it is shaping up. As a result, I’ve added a couple of new features to the armory this week.

Embedded Firearms Links

We’ve all been there; you’re looking for information on a new firearm that you’re interested in buying and google drops you off in some forum (THR is always good).  In a certain regard, StoppingPower was started as a result of me trying many searches like that.  I wanted to find info on:

  • Specs - What cartridge does it take?  What guns are comparable to this one?  What’s the barrel length? How much does it weigh?
  • Pictures - How’s it look?  What finishes are available?
  • Videos - Are there any videos showing this gun in action?
  • Etc…

I’d end up scanning forum upon forum, and end up the “answer” after all that research.  Embedded firearm links are my answer to some of that research.  If someone wants to post to a forum discussing their firearm, it would be so much handier to just embed a link (via html supplied by the Armory) to the Armory page for that firearm.   For example, for one of the AR-15 pistols you could put in:

Read about the Olympic Arms Inc. K23P-AR-15 at armory.stoppingpower.info

Or if you’re a derringer guy (maybe for SASS) you could embed this:

Hopefully it’ll be easy to figure out, as it essentially follows the youtube model.
