Thank you, Shockie. I ws out all day today and was going to go through my Launch magazines tonight, but you nailed it. That might have been the ad that I saw and I took the conservative route of just ordering a pack of A8-3 motors. Static tested one and it blew. Have another and lost track of the third.

I hope they went to a good home! It's really neat to see this bit of history.

Finally found the picture of the SEMROC A8-3 motor in my collection along with a few other short lived offerings. The blank casing was an example sent offering instructions on how to make your own motors. It came with an AMROCS Liberty Bell kit or its equivalent. Popsickle stick fins.

Some really rare rocket motors Chas. So the rest of the motor collection has been reserved for the SE Virginia Rocket Club in Norfolk VA.
