How do I search for Glock 41 with bring up 3,000 entries with the work Glock in them. "Glock 41" does not seem to work, as it does with most other search engines

I had no idea Google could be used like this. Thanks!rtschl wrote:On Google you can search a specific site. So for searching here:

Just like I said, in addition to an earlier statement about a Google search pointing to the TX CHL forum.Skiprr wrote:You want to clarify that mess of a post?bmwrdr wrote:That and any topic related Google search without the explicit link will return results pointing to the TX CHL forum.

You can use all or any major search engines, enter a search term and add a link to the TX CHL forum.
For example, start a google Search and enter "skippr texaschlforum.com", it will return most or maybe all of your own posts.
My comment relates to the fact you can perform a search without adding a URL, for instance you enter just "bmwrdr" and it will return many more results related to that particular abbreviation which happens to be my username on the TX CHL forum.
That said, any search performed manually will be cached in a search engine. In addition the search engine providers are periodically updating and optimizing their search engines. Those updates are done with automated tools aka robots or crawlers to name just the commonly known tools. This means a search query related to a TX CHL Forumk topic may not query the actual URL because the information may (most likely is) already cached in the search engines database.
I hope this larifies what my 1st coment meant.
And if you didnt want results to include aspirin "an * a day", -aspirinExample, searching for "an * a day" will bring up results that include "an hour a day," "an apple a day," and "an aspirin a day."
