I have most the shadowrun books, but I prefer them in electronic format (.pdf ect) so I can use my computer to search through them instead of flipping pages to find that vehicle/rule/gun ect. I have most of them, but I can't find threats (1 or 2)out there anywhere and I don't have a scanner. If any1 wants any others drop a line and I will send them to ya.
