What were they, like Radio Shack or that Lafayette place?

Yeah, somewhat. There was also a Dak Electronics, but if I remember Dak was a catalog mail order.

I don't think I've heard of that one.

Edit: I went ahead and looked that up, and found this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAK_Industries

Apparently, the guy who had that business is back in business online, and now based in Brooklyn, New York. He's 66 years old, from what that said.

I used to get the Dak catalogs for a long time. I forget how I started to get them in the first place. They were interesting to say the least.

Maybe you found out about them from when you were doing road work?

I guess so, and somehow got on their mailing list.

That probably was the case. I've always tried to get subscriptions to all kinds of catalogs and things like that. Now, a lot of that's online, but I still prefer to read paper over a computer screen, as far as that goes. I have a subscription to at least four magazines, and occasionally (not consistently, for some reason) AMS will send me a catalog, too.

I know when I had magazines sitting around, I'd pick up some, and look through them for about the 500th time.

Yeah, I've done that, too. Usually with gear catalogs.

I did that with the gun magazines too. Shooting Times, and Guns And Ammo, a lot!

Oh yeah, I remember those. They're still around, and they have TV shows now. I think it's the Sportsman Network.

I just haven't been doing anything with firearms for awhile.
