On the old forum you could do a search on say a Winchester m1 carbine or any topic and come up with many different questions and answers over the years I have not been able to figure this out on the new forum is this still possible?

    There is a search function at the top of the page, on the right side of the blue banner running across the top.

    You must search for the search, Grasshopper.
    I can't believe they misspelled "Pork and Beans!"

    It appears searches only go back to the time the new formatting started.

    This is unfortunate. I had found much information about a wide range of topics on the old forum layout.
    Oh, well. Can?t stop progress.

    I agree, that's been my experience as well! Interestingly, even though I can't find my older posts through the search function, if I go to my profile I can pull up my old posts going back to when I joined in 2007. :o:lol:

    If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!

    But of course you already know what you said, so that has limited use. Figuring out what Forgemonkey might have said is a lot more difficult. :x
