Rmf,

Use the wildcard character (*) when searching with terms that are less than three characters.

In your example, "Taurus model 63 rifle" should be typed "Taurus model 63* rifle".

Somethin about having to index the search terms makes a heavy dataload on the server when you have to include 2-character terms. Imagine the pain of having to index all the little 2-character terms like 10, 11, 12, 13, as, is, am, no, etc.
