Charlie, it has been over 20 years sense I saw it. He gave me 10 hrs trainin=
g in it and left me with these words of wisdom =E2=80=9C Don=E2=80=99t ever g=
et on one of these things by yourself and expect to live =E2=80=9C needless t=
o say I couldn=E2=80=99t master the dark. It might have been a 12A   It had p=
lenty of power as I recall.=20
