Are the archives available on line to members? If not, how can one access them?
Thanks Mike

Mike, what would you like to see in the line of on-line archives? I would also love to hear from other members regarding desires and preferences as to what might be made available. Storage space for data may be an issue to some extent, and with some information there might be some question of usage rights. This is currently a matter which has been a major challenge to me, and any input or great ideas would be most welcome!

I would like to be able to read the past publications of the organization. Perhaps an enterprising member could put them on CD and they could be offered here for sale. I don't speak or read German so this is my only place to gain information on these old guns I like so well. I am not a member but plan on joining soon.
Thanks Mike

Yamon,
Past publications are already for sale. You should join before buying any of them, members get a nice discount. If you buy enough, the discounts will pay the membership dues. You can find what is available on the main website. Some publications may be out of stock.

Mike,
It had been my hope to do precisely that, but
I have been informed that it is not possible. I had also thought it would be nice to post old catalogs from some of the makers no longer in business, but space for doing so might become an issue unless the material available online was rotated occasionally. I am practically at a standstill with the matter at present. Solutions are welcomed.
