Wow much did you get to write this Dick Metcalf? What was your price?
“former faculty member of the history departments at Yale and Cornell Universities.” .........Need we know ANYTHING else?
I thought it was a sucky rag mag a few years ago. I got upset about their postulation, presumption and precocious position about the price and availability of ammunition. I think my last straw was something about (stamping I think) federal laws requiring manufacturers to have each gun leave a unique stamped impression on the primer/casing that it fires? They thought this was brilliant! I used to get the magazine through my kids school fund raising campaign.
I already quit them.
Disclaimer - I'm 87% sure it was Guns and Ammo.
Monday morning will be sending a gold painted brick to Guns and Ammo. I would hope they get a few thousand bricks so they can see the wall between us and them.
This just brings a whole new meaning to “Shoot Yourself In The Foot”.
...dumber than a pile of wet rocks.
“You can’t yell FIRE! in a theater.”

What if there is a fire?

BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any regulation infringes on whatever it seeks to control. By definition, and by example of our existing myriad of “gun control laws”
Note that the Founder of our Republic knew this very well, and this is why they expressly provided that our right to bear arms “....SHALL NOT be infringed.” No broader, more protective language is possible.
I did not renew my scripts for Guns and Ammo and Shooting Times....this I knew many months ago....
Robert E. Petersen must be doing right hand twist 360s in his grave...
Obama donor Leo Hindery Jr. is buying up pro-gun media outlets to gut and destroy them - See more at:
And you can carry the word fire with you all the time until needed.
Excellent find. We simply create new magazines, then.
I only buy those magazines that have articles by Massad Ayoob; I do like his information about self defense.
As for your VAPORWARE comment..LOL How true. It took us 3 years to find one PMR-30, and got that only because I walked in right behind the UPS guy. The only other ones we have seen have been at gun shows for about $750. Sorry, while a nice pistol, it ain’t that damn good!!!
Evidence on the internet suggests that he may be corruptible. In 2008, 5 year ago, www.thehighroad.org has a post that begins "Can this guy be trusted for legitimate reviews on Taurus firearms or is he is a shill for the compnay?" (sic)
one wonders if he may now be a shill for someone else - and what's in it for him.
Yell out Conflagration! instead.
I support gun control, for the F***ing Feds.
this had a life here at FR almost a year ago. lots of people are ignoring it in droves. I even contacted my state organization (that is the NRA in NY). they said they felt that Leo Hindery Jr was just a venture capitalist out to make a buck. REALLY!!! cant these people see the writing on the wall???
They have enough money to let some of it dry up to advance an agenda.
Magazines written by supposed experts should be read with a large supply of salt handy. It must have been at least 35 years ago I read a page in an automotive magazine where someone was asking what worked best in snow and ice, a rear wheel drive car or a front wheel drive car. As one who has driven both I cannot imagine anyone who has experience with both saying anything other than PICK THE FRONT WHEEL DRIVE FOR THOSE CONDITIONS. The so-called expert trying to answer the question didn’t actually answer it, he went through a lot of gyrations written as if he were writing a thesis for an engineering degree and never came to any kind of conclusion. It reminded me of a saying I used to hear, “Ask him for the time of day and he will tell you how to build a watch.”
What the reader had wanted was a real world answer and what he got was gobbledygook that left him more confused than before.
“Exothermic Reactions! Exothermic Reactions! Combustive Exothermic Reactions in the Theater!!”
