How to search

#1

Post by absavino »

Hi,

How does the search work? I tried the term "EMP" trying to find anything about the Springfield EMP 9mm and I get nothing back. I also tried "FFL" and nothing came back.

Help anyone?

Thank you.

Sometimes you need a wildcard * :biggrinjester:

For FFL search for FFL*
For EMP search EMP* and then "search this results" for Springfield

on many forums, the search feature will not work with a three-character query, because there are so many possibilities that wouldn't apply

That is the case here. You can use EMP*, but that brings up a lot of things like Employee and empty. Like WildBill said, try modifying it by using another key word like 'Springfield' along with 'EMP' and see if that doesn't help.
