Yes I've been using Nosler bullets for almost 35 years and have had great success when I do my part.

Interesting thing I found out about the Duckduckgo search engine that it supports encryption and is available in 2 flavors. The link you posted is the normal search like every other search engine almost.

But if you explore a little deeper, they also have SSL ( Secure Socket Layer) encryption (RCA 4-128 bit) which is the same as the link you posted except it is encrypted to help keep big brother from snooping on our searches with anything related to firearms.

Here is the link you sent me --> duckduckgo.com/

And here is the encrypted link. --> duckduckgo.com/

Notice the "s" at the end of the above http line. Very Happy

Google also has this feature but it's the same thing as "google shopping" and doesn't show firearms any more using "google shopping" Sad

Omi, you use many words I don't understand... but having my age, I fully understand who I have to ask when I don't understand something and whenever I get another problem touching search engines, you're on my list now (and I hope I can still recall this list when I need it Smile

)

And when somebody starts offering services without tracking, I like it and I hope others will follow such example. So I also try to 'duckduck' some more, even when it's just to support them.

Dimitri,
The black menu line that starts out with "+you"... on the far right click "more" and then shopping. Then run your search......

I don't have shopping as anoption on my Android device. I did a normal Web search for Barrett 50 Cal for sale. It mustonly apply to sponsored ads as I got plenty of hits.

Just for the heck of it, I clicked google shopping and typed in "Ford Mustang" and it gave me a list of Matchbox Cars, remote control cars but no real automobiles. So I went to find out what you can buy and sell on google and a vehicle is a no-no.

Here is a link ---> support.google.com/mer...=188484#US

Click on the "Unacceptable Product Categories" and scroll down a little bit and you will see it in the "Other Prohibitive Categories List".

And here is a full list ---> support.google.com/adw...tx=topmenu

Shopping is a American Google.com thing, not a Canadian Google.ca thing, you need to redirect your browser to Google.com instead of the default Google.ca when you go to their site.

You do...But you can't buy them. Just look at them.

Hee hee, I can if I got an E category license, which unfortunately I don't have, but any bolt action sniper weapon is fair game here, I have friends who have TRG42's and Accuracy International military grade weapons.

You can buy them in some gun stores - Gun city in Christchurch and Auckland advertise on the net all the time. It's only a matter of $$$. I'd be more afraid of my freinds going tropo with their weapons than any nutcase with an AK or M16 variant.
Hell even I can hit a 6 inch target at 1000M regularly with a friends 6.5x284; as long as I get it together.

Once I have an import certificate from Police Arms Office, with the right creds I could get any semi auto rifle or pistol. Its all a matter of following the rules.

Now who's rubbing salt in the wounds.

If anyone wants me, I'll be out back cleaning my bolt action rifle while thinking how lucky I am that they let me have one at all.
