You forgot DD – Destructive Devices. Grenades, rockets, etc.

Well, that didn’t work.
How ’bout this – replace the [ and ] with the correct symbols:

[acronym title="National Firearms Act"]NFA[/acronym]

heh

I’ve complained about that before.

I know that Kim (btw, here’s a heart-wrenching post by them: http://www.theothersideofkim.com/index.php/tos/more/8939/), used to have a little database he would link to.

I also learned how to use “ackronyms” in HTML, perhaps you could add them in every once in a while. Here’s the syntax:

NFA
(remove the spaces afer the ‘NFA

It’s not much more complicated than an href link tag.

How ’bout this; if you use some acronyms, I will send you some money to support your blog.

Deal?

My personal favorites:

BFG – Big Fun Gun (you can adapt the f to whatever situation you are in.)
EBG – Evil Black Gun
BAR – Browning Automatic Rifle

Thanks! Now I won’t have to think, WTF when I hit a TLA. BTW if you’re ever passing though SC I’d be happy to give you the VIP tour of COL.
