    Yes, it was only single-feed, through a slot in the front of the box. I
mentioned it though because he didn't specify a specific type and figured he
might be able to find one with a little checking. Afterall, there are still
ships using the Harris mini's as far as I know. I've not heard that Snap-II
had been totally phased out of use yet.
