I've tried several searches in two different forums. No results returned in each. I know the subject of vendors for M1A magazines has been in the Art of the Rifle.

I just used it and it seems to be working fine. If it returned no results, then it is searching, but not finding.
Try clicking on the button that says, "Match any of the search terms above" instead of the one that says, "Match all search terms above" You can also try to broaden your search parameters by using a more generic search term that you know is in one of the threads. HTH! |

OK. I did a search for M1A in Art of the Rifle. M1A in quotation marks. Checked Any instead of all. No results.

I just got 27 hits for M1A in The Art. If you've always been using quotation marks, you shouldn't. Unlike other search engines, this one is a simpleton and it would be searching for M1A including the quotes in any posts and, obviously, that would be a rare find.

Yep, the quotation marks were the problem. Loads of hits without them.
