Back when the net first became available for research, circa mid to late 90's. I had more gun books, than room to store the. Sold most, to gun book dealer in N.J. Only kept the high quality books, that I used for everyday research.
Nowadays, most of the questions I try to answer. The information is from the net. Although it takes a lot of searching and digging, at times.
