0 TIMES 1 EQUALS… JAIL
A Florida man was arrested and charged with DUI while returning from a Halloween party dressed as a prison inmate. Jimmie Glover, 18, was wearing bright orange jumpsuit pants and a white tank top when he was pulled over in Port St. Lucie around 6 a.m. and allegedly failed a sobriety test. He was taken custody until he posted bond. Glover “was already dressed for arrest” the department quipped on Facebook!

Fake extra-terrestrials, after the original animatronic model of the alien from Stephen Spielberg’s 1982 film E.T. sold at auction to an anonymous bidder for $2.56million!
DID YOU KNOW WE HAVE AN “ADARO”?
Real extra-terrestrials, after the Pentagon’s new All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office said its review of hundreds of UFO sighting – including dozens of new ones in recent months – did not show any evidence of aliens visiting Earth “at this time.”
I DON’T WANT TO KNOW A LOT MORE ABOUT THIS…
An 88 year-old man arrived at a French hospital asking for help in removing an 8 inch-long World War I artillery shell lodged in his rectum, causing a bomb scare and an emergency evacuation. After determining the shell was inert, doctors removed it.
THE WEEK

I just wanted to contact you letting you know that I’ve received the SIG 550/551 owners manual and I like it a lot, but my question is is the front cover appears to have a discoloration on the front cover, but not as clear as the one that is pictured on your advertisement of the owners manual. The discoloration looks like when the printer is running out of ink just thought I would bring this to your attention although it’s a good manual. I’m not 100% satisfied and didn’t want to leave a feedback until contacting you about this issue. 
Your implied threat of poor feedback won’t change the fact that the original scan is flawed, or perhaps the original was sun-damaged. At any rate, to obtain complete, 100% satisfaction, you may return the manual for a refund. Rob for cornellpubs
My reaching out to you was not to give you a bad feedback !!!!!!! And don’t won’t my money back. All I wanted to do is let you know of the situation and be aware of it and that’s all. If you have read my text and not take it out of context what I was conveying, you wouldn’t have taken it as a threat of leaving you a bad feedback. To reiterate what I had said the last next was that I liked your manual A LOT !!!!!!! But somehow you took it as I was threatening you with a bad response. Only giving you my honest opinion as I do on my feedback’s that I leave. Again I like the manual, but your response back to me is piss poor !!!!!!
“I’m not 100% satisfied and didn’t want to leave a feedback until contacting you about this issue.” = Implies your feedback is contingent on you being 100% satisfied by our response. After 20 years on eBay where people have used feedback threats to extract outcomes, we are touchy about such language. If you didn’t mean to sound threatening I apologize. Rob
I apologize as well, and maybe I made it sound that I wasn’t satisfied in my first text that I sent to you. I was very satisfied with the manual but wanted to bring your attention to the discoloration on the cover. Other than that I am satisfied with the manual I received from you. It’s well put together and very informative and well put together. I will be leaving you a good feedback. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday and rest of the week.

Hello Travis, I’m afraid we are not much help. Because it is so rare we just don’t have any information about the Browning BPM-D 9mm pistol. I am sorry. Best wishes, Abby

Both the 1897 and 1900 (the one you tagged) Marlin catalogs that we offer contain the same dozen pages of drawings and text about the M1892. They offer cutaway drawings with instructions, ammunition, etc.. Rob for cornellpubs

Hello! I have a Marlin No. 92, .22LR with serial number 340301. This rifle belonged to my grandfather, and possibly my great-grandfather. My research suggests this rifle was made in 1906. I’m looking for takedown instructions – would you recommend the 1905 or 1907 catalog for the best/most complete takedown for this model? I don’t know that this model changed much, if at all, but I thought it would be worth checking. Thanks for your help and for making this information available. Eric E
Hi Eric, Marlin rifles catalogs of that period were identified by year, eg, Model 1892. If you can tell me what model your rifle is, I can look further. Catalogs tended to repeat the same information year after year, so that isn’t a big consideration. So, assuming they built your rifle in ’05, I would get that one, or perhaps a PDF download to check out and print yourself (in landscape mode, fold, staple, and trim). Best, Abby
Hi Abby, Thank you for the quick reply. The rifle is a Marlin Model 1892 (No. 92), .22LR with a serial number 340301, which places the date of manufacture in 1906. I don’t see that you have a 1906 catalog – I suppose it is a question of whether the 1905 or 1907 catalog would be best. Thanks!

Abby and Rob. I doubt that you will remember me (Burnie Campbell Lexington, KY) but years ago when you two were just starting I offered some of my old catalogs and we emailed were you were exploring means of getting your message out. You may still have my old email address in your system.
At 81 I need to sell my collection of gun books as well as a 60+ year collection of reloading equipment. I was hoping that you were aware of a book dealer interested in buying all of the books. Various titles such as: Marlin Firearms, Savage Pistols, Six Guns by Keith, etc. Probably close to 100 titles. All but a few old ones in excellent to like new condition. Burnie C
Hi Burnie, I wish I could help you but I’m afraid I’ve no idea where to sell used gun books other than one of the big used book services like Alibris or Abe Books. Or you could sell them on eBay in batches… no easy answer, I’m afraid. Sorry, Rob

Ref: Marlin 1960 Gun Catalog. Hello. My understanding is that Marlin created their Glenfield line of rifles in 1960. Does this catalog cover them? Possibly in the last few pages? Thanks.
Never mind! I now see that your ad lists the models covered. I didn’t see that originally. Thanks!

Ref: Remington 1970 Firearms Field Service Manual. Hi can you tell me if in the Remington 1970 Firearms Field Service Manuals you have for sale that the section in the manual for the “Remington Model 550-l” is complete? I just bought one on eBay from someone else (said original), and almost the entire section was missing. Thank you, Bill B
Bill, The copy we reprint is the entire 1970 Rem Parts catalog that they published. The Rem 550-I section is eight pages. Rob

Ref January Newsletter: “I don’t do politics. The ICE thing was a deal breaker for me.” Ken G
Really Ken? You managed to infer politics from an article that reported that ICE is recruiting at gun shows, an innovative and logical place to look for potential agents? You know, one of the problems facing our country today is dealing with people who work hard to penetrate any statement, searching for some polarizing figment. Happy New Year, Rob

Ref: Smith & Wesson Model 29 .44 Magnum Revolver Manual – Interested in a couple of these manuals. What is the difference in “pdf” (a file version) and “print”. I would like the highest quality version. Darrell K
Hello Darrell, A PDF is an electronic copy you print yourself. It is downloaded to your device and exists only on your device. A print version is a paper copy we mail to you. Best, Abby
OK, Thanks

I did the research by looking through the whole darn book, but yes, there is 45-70 load data. Rob for cornellpubs
Can you do 10$ plus shipping?
No, we don’t fiddle with prices, especially after doing extra work to answer questions. Our charges are very fair for one-off printing, collating, binding, and shipping of otherwise unavailable antique firearms publications. Plus we have to pay eBay hefty commissions. I’m sorry. Rob for cornellpubs

Greetings, I have a Hopkins & Allen New Model Single Shot Pistol, .22 caliber that needs work. Looking for a manual for this including parts schematic and disassembly / assembly information. Please advise. Best, Bob P
Hi Bob, I am not aware of any publication that uses modern schematics to illustrate H&A firearms. Even the 1914 parts catalog that shows the parts in a plan view doesn’t show them for the single shot pistols. On the other hand, the parts of that weapon are few and easily observed when dismantling. Sorry I can’t be more help, Cheers, Rob
Hi Rob, Appreciate your assistance and worth asking. Best, Bob
