    CFE BLK vs AA1680

    1st post but have been a follower [lurker congers up negative images] of the this forum for some time, mainly due to the helpful info everyone so willingly dispenses, the collegiality amongst the users and the scarcity of pi$$ing contests so often displayed on other sites. Just came into...
