What is the simplest LEGAL method an individual can access these?
The story so far: National Serial Numbers NSN's are extremely useful for
identifying military and other gear. There is no obvious free website
with this tax-dollar-paid-for info available.
The few sites where the info is offered are obscenely expensive and
arrogant.
There IS a $18 CHAR DATA 3-CD set you can get, but it only has the
barest of limited NIIN info on it. For instance, a circuit breaker has
as its entire description "APPROXIMATE NUMBER OF POLES - ONE."
The "good stuff" that includes vendor addresses and product ages and how
may were bought when for how much is apparently only available as a $96
FED LOG set of CD's. Acess to these is classified as FOUO as in "for
official use only" and the feds WILL NOT sell them to individuals. There
are also major penalties for divulging their contents to third parties.
How can sets of these be legally accessed?
What is the simplest way to become a fed vendor or an acceptable supply
organization? Apparently a fire department may work.
