You certainly are trying! The real thing will come along soon. What part of the country are you in? Maybe, you can find someone on here that is local and can show you around. I see good things coming your way. DO NOT GIVE UP!
Where are you located. I am near Martinsville VA. If you are near or ever in the area, come on by and I will show you lots of relics and take you out for a hunt if possible.
