I noticed a few deuces listed recently. I thought they were out of the inventory, but I guess a few stragglers are still finding their way to the GL yards.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
GL's Search Engine has ALWAYS had a problem differentiating between Deuces and 5-Ton trucks.Looking at the 5-ton section and saw the announcement of an M35 A2C in there (hope this is not against rules). This wil probably happen more often. Now the 5-ton fans will ignore this item and most of the deuce fans will not find it. Is this the moment to get an unexpected cheap deuce?! Too bad I am not in the USA, would have loved to follow that one.
Something wrong in MA. sent you a PMI called GL today and talked to Heidi. Happy to say the web admin team is aware of the lack of phone numbers on individual bases which would give us ease and convenience to call and question or schedule at the specific base or post listing out materials of interest.
She says the team is first working on putting all the correct numbers on the invoices when printed out as paid in full. Once that is done, they will migrate to the web pages and see if they can get the correct number in there under the listings, but did not promise it would be done. She thought they might be done now, or close to it, by puttting the correct local numbers on the invoices for us. I check my invoice today for a Huntsville purchase yesterday, and the correct number was listed for scheduling a pickup. It was not listed correctly on the actual auction listing yet.
It happens, and it's fixable. I do it all the time. Details in the PM I returned to you. Thanks.Something wrong in MA. sent you a PM
Thanks, it does. Sounds logic, but shouldn't you get more M35,s there then? Then again, did not check that carefully. Following it, I did noticed that some GL posts mentioned 2 1/2 ton and some 2.5 ton With the second, you indeed could get the "5-ton" mistake.GL's Search Engine has ALWAYS had a problem differentiating between Deuces and 5-Ton trucks.
... any auction that describes a DEUCE as a "2.5-Ton" truck does in fact include the statement "5-Ton".... Look ---> "2.5-Ton" .... SO, if you search for 5-Ton Trucks, your just gonna get them ALL ! ! !
Simply programing logic. Hope that helps.
Ah yes.... Easy would make sense, wouldn't it.Thanks, it does. Sounds logic, but shouldn't you get more M35,s there then? Then again, did not check that carefully.

For a computer nerd, it's very easy to include a line like "exclude vehicles containing the term M35 or something like that (I like thinking about solutions for such problems that absolutely not touch me, drives my girlfriend crazy ).
Sir, I stand corrected
