Is there a way to look up a username?



I am trying to look up a member so I can see feedback and whatnot, however I can't seem to find a way to his profile page.



I did a post/topic search under his name and he must have 1 post in a 195 page thread.

"Ar15.com" "profile" "username" is usually successful.



ETA: in Bing.

If you choose to have the search results shown as individual posts rather than threads, it will show you the post and you can click on it. That will take you to his post in a thread, and you can look at his profile.

I tried that again.  His post is in a 195 page thread.  I'm not going to search 195 pages.

Tap "user info" under the bottom of their post, or my post, or your post etc.
Have you tried using a search engine outside of the site to search the site if you're having a hard time finding an individual?

Didn't work because he has few posts.

If you do what I described, it will take you directly to his post in that huge thread.
"Show results as thread (or) post", at the bottom left of the search area.
Choose "show results as posts".

Google this string: (username [no parentheses]) site:ar15.com

No matter how many posts he has, it will be the first result.

Also, IBTL.
