Quite subscribing decades ago.

NRA sends one that has decent now & then stuff.

Prefer screen version to accommodate my whims.

Yeah, but how fast I get through them depends veeery heavily on what else is going on. Handloader, American Rifleman, a couple of archeology rags and the state bar fishwrap.

Wow that one is still around. I remember reading it when I was in Junior High Electronics. Got my Novice License then.

Shop teacher had a real nice radio room for us to use. I remember getting a CQ answer from someone in Oregon and I was in Los Angeles Area. That was a good day on the 75 watts allowed.

I am going to retire soon and maybe I will go for a General. I heard you can go for one with no code. I still have the ball bearing key practice set up in the garage.

Yes. Current subscriptions include Ducks Unlimited, Trout Unlimited and Whisky Advocate. I especially enjoy reading old magazines. I recently purchased some Fly Fishing mags from the mid 70's which I am thoroughly enjoying cover to cover.

I'm always getting stuff in the mail for special price subscriptions. I got one in the mail a while back "Shooting Times" for like 5 bucks for 12 issues. I subscribed...what the hell.

Only one that I bother with is Recoil. Used to get Small Arms Review until they cut the amount of print rags to quarterly.

My last real subscription to a magazine was in High school sometime in the late 90s. It was for RC cars- RCCA?

The only thing I get now is the American Rifleman that I get from NRA. I just skim through it and give them to a friend at work.

American Rifleman.

I still get various law enforcement magazines in the mail that I flip through.

I still enjoy the thrill of going to the bookstore and flipping through the various history and knife magazines.

I still enjoy the print books and magazines. I have adapted to my kindle especially during the summer. As much as I read each week I would go broke buying books.

I read Garden & Gun cover to cover. I got a few free subscriptions to others and a I only leaf through them to find that there's nothing I want to read.

I am a reader and still get 4 gun magazines, Reader's Digest,VFW magazine and 2 university alumni magazines.

I only get two magazines, in the past I got a lot more. American Rifleman and Outdoor Photography are it for me. The wife does get a few, Cowboys and Indians is one we share.

I've weaned myself down to Air & Space and Readers Digest. "Shooters Illustrated" I get soft copy.

As an ex-printer, I still get one that I read and save "Handloader". I ditch American Rifleman after some perusal, Wired is occasionally read. All others flipped through then dumped.

The Economist

American Rifleman

I picked up a glossy gun magazine at the store the other day and considered buying it. Then I saw the price. Ten bucks. Ten. Bucks.

No way in Hell. No way. Adios, 20th Century.

-----------------------------------

I get the NRA's "Shooting Illustrated" delivered monthly. It is the only magazine I get anymore.

I haven't subscribed to a magazine since Sports Illustrated in the late 90's. The only "magazines" I read now come for free; Northern Tool, Harbor Freight, Cabela's, etc.

Para I notice that the newsstand price is very high on most mags. But if you subscribe it is much cheaper per issue. A fraction of the newsstand price.
