STILL NEED GUNS & AMMO 1984 FIALA ARTICLE

Shansei45
I've been told that Guns & Ammo magazine ran an article about the Fiala Arms and Equipment Co. of New Haven, Connecticut. I've been unable to locate that particular issue. Anyone out there have any 1984 issues of G&A they could check for me? If I could just determine the MONTH AND YEAR for sure, I could probably find a copy for sale elsewhere. Please email me if you can help out here.

Here is a picture of one of my cased Fiala, 3-barrel sets.

    Hello Shansei45
    When are we going to start seeing how these neat guns shoot? We need to post a range report. Robin

    Worry is the interest humans pay on the debt of miscalculation.

    Finally got No.5 in the stable and want to work on getting it in firing condition. Was missing a few parts so am going to canibalize the cobbled up one once I can find the time. Then we'll have at least four (3 complete sets) for firing tests, pics, etc. Stand by, am working full time next four days then have four off. Hopefully ready for field tests next week. Looking forward to trying them out.

    Hi bobski. Had forgotten about you mentioning you should have the copy I'm looking for. Good luck. I know what it's like having to dig around for stuff stashed a long time before. Keep digging. I'll look forward to them at your convenience.

    finally got to the pile for you!
    sorry to report...i just hand checked all issues of 1984 with the exception of dec 84(im missing) and there are no articles on a fiala.
    you might want to narrow down your search to a dec 84 issue of g&a, because, its the only one i havent checked. if you find one, sell it to me so i can complete my 1984 library! [:D]

    Thanks Bobski. I'll start searching immediately. If I run across one I'll certainly let you know. I still haven't found time to even write to G&A to see if they might have it archived someplace online. Must do... like so many other things I'd like to get done.

    Again, thanks for the attempt.

    Hey, Robin, just sent the $$$s for Fiala #6. Soon as health clears up a bit hopefully I'll be able to pack all this hardware out to a shootin' spot.
