    I sent him a PM to get on the list. Will have to wait to see if I get one or not. Looks like a good book.

My daughter's can both read and speak German enough to get by as they offer it in school here and they have both been to Germanyicon on exchange trips. I doubt either would be much interested in translating a gun book for me. I've been to Germany three times myself so I can read and understand enough to not get killed crossing the street and to know they count the thumb whether it is up or not but that's about it.

    They don't need to translate it! With your interests, you need to understand enough Germanicon for the purposes of "Mauserology". You don't have to actually write German or speak it, just get to know the technical terminology so that you can get the gist of what is in the books.
