I'm having difficulties with a forum search...

kozak6 · August 21, 2006, 11:28 PM

I'm having a rather difficult time here.

I'm trying to search the forums for more information on the Maverick shotgun series, except the only thing that turns up is two threads where I ask about it, and if I widen the search to include other forums, I get one additonal thread which has nothing to do with Maverick shotguns.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Messing with the settings under "Advanced Search" didn't help at all.

The search feature is apparently VERY limited right now due to the need to reindex everything. I had the same question last week.

Use google for now.

enter whatever you want to search for, and add
"site:thefiringline.com"

as a separate search term (leave off the quotes)

Damn.

I guess I'm just going to have to buy an Ithica Model 37 instead.

Oh well, what can you do?

Kozak - Did you follow the directions tyme posted? I found 203 results searching for "Maverick" and "site:thefiringline.com" on Google.

I didn't even see it

.

That's fine, though.

The Ithica 37 is in great shape for a good price, so I'm better off getting it anyways.

I'm going to try a search for that instead, in the meantime here.

Thanks!

Oooh, good stuff; thanks Tyme. Should we make this info a sticky here or in general or both?

I redid the navbar search so it automatically uses google.
