AR15.com Backup Site Live, Switching to First Amendment Friendly Site Registrar
On Monday, January 11, 2021, I received notice from our site registrar that AR15.com had violated their terms of service and that AR15.com would be shut down immediately. The registrar’s decision to de-platform AR15.com was final and no method to appeal was offered.
It remains unclear specifically what content allegedly violated the registrar’s terms of service.
However, I am happy to report that we have found a new, First Amendment-friendly site registrar and we have begun the process of transitioning AR15.com to the new registrar.
We expect the switchover to take up to 5 days. During that time, our famous “AR15.com” URL will not be usable. Once the switchover is complete, AR15.com will be fully restored to normal function.
In the meantime, I welcome freedom lovers and firearm enthusiasts to visit us at our temporary URL: www.ar15-backup.com. We will post on the backup site when the normal AR15.com has been completely restored.

AR15.com seems to have anticipated this event, as they are moving to another host.
There back-up site is running well in the meantime.
Ohhh theres an explanation alright. And I think we all know what it is.
The end game is moving forward for the NGO's
Welcome New World Order! Welcome Chinese Communist overlords!
I would tell China to suck lead; but I feel like with the laxed human rights laws, and safety standards, they probably have been; for a long time.

They need to call out their registrar so we can boycott them. Nobody is safe there.
They're running on a backup site.

I haven't tested it personally, but that's the word from the folks running it.
