You can use the advanced search feature to search beyond all posts more than a year old. But you are still limited to 200 hits.
Use Google to search any website by qualifying it where to look with the word site:www.site_name. For example to search just this site it would be site:www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbthreads.php
So if I wanted to search all posts from anytime using Google (or URL bar if using Chrome) for the keyword Ithaca on here you would type in-
Ithaca site:www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbthreads.php
In the results header of google there is a dropdown under tools that lets you set custom dates if you want to fine tune it to a date range. Or use other criteria.
Hope that helps you brother James.
