I enjoy Gun Tests. It has reviews of a varied assortment of firearms. Of course, like everything else, take it with a grain of salt. Their experiences may not be yours, but they understand that too.

WOW! Save your money and go buy a gun after a few months. :D....I kid, I kid....

I don't subscribe to any, and I just picked up a Guns & Ammo on my last trip to the grocery store. Probably won't be doing that again. Those things are outrageously priced. Or maybe I'm just cheap :rolleyes:

I thumb through a couple at the grocery store, if I see some stuff I like, I will buy it, but like boomhower said, they are expensive and I am cheap!

Yeah, you're not kidding... things are hella expensive for a stack of stapled paper. $5-$10 each, depending on the magazine. :eek:

I'm like db99wj... I'll thumb through them, and only buy what I'm interested in or something new to see if it's worth picking up again.

Being an NRA member I get American Rifleman.

When the Mrs. Average Joe sends me after milk and diapers, I snag a copy of the latest gun mag.

Usually one of these:

Combat Handguns

Guns of the Old West (put out by Combat Handguns)

Guns and Ammo HandGuns

Most of the time it depends on what handguns are reviewed.

I subscribed to Shooting Times last, but haven't been impressed lately. I've recently let my subscription run out.

American Rifleman and Combat Handguns.

BTW Boomhower, my other hobbies are cars and computers...have you recently checked the prices for THOSE types of magazines?! OMG :confused:

I subscribe to Guns and Ammo and also get American Rifleman. Since it only comes out quarterly I will pick up a Guns of the Old West when I see it.

If you are going to read any of them the affordable way is to subscribe. I think my G&A subscription was only about $10 for a year. I do not consider the cost of American Rifleman, there is an added bonus getting that.

I used to read Shooting Times years ago for years. i recently resubscribed

to it, but have not been very impressed. It seems to have changed a LOT.

I won't be renewing it.

I only buy them every now and then.

When I do it seems I am picking up:

Combat Handguns

Shotgun News

But for me to buy one, they have to be reviewing something that

is really catching my eye.

I don't read any of them. Last one I subscribed to was Gun Tests, but they have too many ridiculous "reviews" where they bought a clearly defective gun and "tested" it anyway.

The other magazines will never write something negative about their advertisers.

I can keep up with what's new online for free.

I'll pick up a copy of Combat Handguns and Guns and Weapons for Law Enforcement occasionally depending on what's inside, same goes for Small Arms Review depending on the subject matter. I recently subsrcibed to SWAT, now I'm no operator or mall ninja, just an average street cop, but I enjoy the articles, reviews, and especially the training information. I got interested in the mag after seeing articles done by or about Tactical Repsonse.

American Rifleman is the best price. I like Combat Hanguns and Guns and Ammo, but rarely ever buy them unless I'm travelling, then I get them to read in the car or the hotel.
