Another possible factor is the "dilution" due to cessation of production of AW's (due to the "AW ban".) With the continued production of non-AW functional equivalents (but cosmetically not AW) the proportion of AW's in any group of guns chosen for their function and/or availability will be going down. -- --henry schaffer _______________________________________________ To post, send message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, unsubscribe, change options, or get password, see http://lists.ucla.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/firearmsregprof
