"I went to the archives of the Boston Public Library and found copies of
the several magazines that, according to the prosecution at the criminal
trial, Wayne had used to help him order his gun parts. Sure enough, in the
back of one of them I found the ad for Classic Arms. I wrote for a catalog
and was delighted when, several weeks later, it showed up in my pile of
mail, a cheap cut-and-paste, xeroxed and stapled thing. To me it was an
object of fascination. There, in its pages, was my plastic stock, the one
that would make my SKS look and feel more like a real assault rifle. And
there, wonder of wonders, was the same cheap imported steel clad 7.62 mm
ammunition Wayne had ordered."
