Before we go too much further, let me explain a bit furtherwhat I mean when I say competing with customers. Although theconcept sounds like it should be controversial (which startup in their rightmind would want to compete with its customers?), it really isnt. What I mean by competing with customers...
I'm an avid subscriber and longtime firearms appreciator. Had reason to call your office for some information and got put through to Sammy Reese (Editor, Special Editions). What an outstanding effect, to reach someone personable and an interest in getting things done! That same day his work came in my...
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] In the course of daily business I'm often asked for a specific caliber recommendation. This is usually easy to narrow down to a few calibers if adequate information is forthcoming. The most frequent question is: "I need to pick one caliber to hunt all big game...
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Just back from the latest NRA show in Lexington, KY and we simply had a blast. It's always fun to go to a "consumer" show and I was able to meet a great number of Handgunner readers. I always get a kick out of it, and...
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Fiochi is world-famous for loading high-performance ammo for handguns, rifles and shotguns and if you don't know about this very cool ammo, you need to. Amy Brown, old friend at Bear Advertising, Fiocchi's flag-waver in the States, made sure I knew about this latest loading. When...
Did you ever buy something you really liked and then go back to get another a bit later only to hear "They don't make that model anymore," or worse, "They upgraded it and this baby is the new version." From trousers to guns, seems when somebody has something working great...
As a Benefactor life member of the NRA, my wife and I recently traveled to the annual conference/show held in Louisville this year. It was a great event and the legs got pretty tired walking the many aisles. On display were hundreds of guns of all calibers and persuasions. It...
I just finished my latest American Handgunner. I'm about as likely to let that subscription lapse as I am to run out of amino. Ain't gonna happen. I'm a huge fan of the 1911, and own a fine Kimber custom CPD II, which I love and carry concealed. ...
I have been a avid shooter and outdoorsman since I was just a kid. I am now 25 and am soon to be purchasing my first pistol. I am looking for some advice on a good concealed carry pistol as I am in New York. I'm looking for something compact...
I'm almost finished reading your July/August 2008 American Handgunner issue and would like to give you and your magazine a round of applause. After being assaulted by the liberal media on all fronts with misleading and what-ever-sells headlines, it's a wonderful surprise to open and read an honest-to-goodness magazine. I...
Wow, what a revolver (March/April cover gun)! I had a similar concept many years ago. In 1988, Montana gunsmith Mike Johnson took my Brazilian contract 1917 and fitted a Douglas match 4 3/8" by .972 dia. Barrel, and installed a S&W adjustable rear sight. I added a set of Pachmayr...
I finally found a good use for the last of my subscriptions to, shall we say, "another" gun magazine. When they arrive I stack them into a small box without reading them (why would I waste my time?). Once it gets full, I seal it with duct tape, stick a...
I recently obtained my concealed carry license and I want to buy a handgun now, of course. I have had little experience with handguns and mostly shoot shotguns and rifles. I'd appreciate any advice concerning which gun I should get, without damaging my wallet to much. I'm one of those...
I was happy to read the "Seal of Approval" article by Alex Hamilton (Pistolsmithing, March/April 2008). I think there should be a standard for the claims companies make on their products. I'm betting my family's life on the guns and accessories they produce. If I go to a mechanic I...
Q: I want to buy a 1911 .45 ACP, but am kind of confused right now. After reading your magazine for the last couple of years, I've noticed the grip on most guns has gone from the classic arched mainspring to flat and straight. Why? Is it because it's a...
I like reading old magazines. Even the ads bring back memories. Each month's corresponding issue of GUNS Magazine from 50 years ago is available online (www. gunsmagazine.com) free by downloading or you can purchase the entire year on disk as it is finished. Currently, the years 1955, '56 and '57...
'Try" isn't the only word that can sabotage your goal-setting success and happiness. Ban the following from your vocabulary today: 1 IF" This tiny word can undermine your objectives in a big way, implying that you're powerless to make something happen. Replace it with "I will." ...
