Looking for Steyr Scout Owner's Manual in PDF form

I know my paper copy of my Steyr Scout Owner's Manual is around the house somewhere, but I can't find it. Remembering that Steyr's erstwhile U.S. distributor GSI published a PDF version of the manual online, I went looking for it, and discovered it gone from the GSI site, unavailable from the Dynamit-Nobel site... and as a side effect, saw that Steyr is once again changing U.S. distributors!

I went to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine and was delighted to find snapshots of GSI's site from 2 years back... but no stored PDF documents! I've looked all over the Scout-related sites, Googling widely, still no luck. Does anyone know where I can find this file?

Hi Steve! That would be very, very useful. I'll keep looking for mine over the next couple of days just to be sure. Thanks!

I found one for sale for $2.99 (plus, apparently, $9.99 shipping!) at http://www.cdnninvestments.com/steyscoutman.html

Hi Bill,

Thanks for looking for it... I found the same one in my searches too! I know they're available, I was just hoping to find that PDF copy along the way: once I get started on looking for something, I'm a bit compulsive. ;)

Hey Russell. I'd really like a copy of that PDF file myself. Can I impose on you for this?
