American Rifleman
Backwoods Home
Mother Earth News

American Rifleman, Muzzle Blasts, both come with memberships; Primitive Archer; and Missouri Conservationist.

In addition to the obligatory American Rifelman, the only gun mag I read is Hanloader.

Janes defense weekly
The Economist

Chesapeake Bay Magazine
Soundings
Virginia Business

I buy an occasional copy of Wooden Boat.

I like pictures of pretty boats!

I don't subscribe to anything anymore but I do pick up a copy of the Economist when I fly. Great source of international info and good for at least 3 hours reading.

American Rifleman & Consumer Reports.

American Rifleman with my Life membership.

Same here, wife and I both read G&G, easy read, interesting reviews of places all over the south and good recipes

American Rifleman, National Geographic, The Week, TV Guide, Cooks Illustrated, Guideposts, Consumer Reports.

Used to subscribe to a lot of magazines. None now.

I have subscriptions to: BMW Owners News, BMW Motorcycle Magazine, American Rifleman, Car & Driver, Road & Track, 8-Lug, Blade, Knives, Cycle World and Motorcyclist.

I usually end up buying Recoil, Concealed Carry Handguns and any of the AR-15 issues that have rifles that attract my attention.

Ah, a magazine question where the answer isn't Mec-Gar. Cool.

I think IFR is the only non-membership magazine I get. America's 1st Freedom, American Rifleman, and American Hunter all come through lifetime memberships (we're all lifetime members). AOPA Magazine, Water Flying, Sport Aviation, and Sport Aerobatics come through various aviation related memberships. Ag Alert comes through Farm Bureau membership. Westways comes through AAA membership (and never gets read. Haven't used the roadside service since I was a kid driving whatever junk I could afford. I'd drop it if it weren't for that SOB Murphy...). Don't manage to get through all of them. Too much to do to read full time, and SF is more interesting than most of them anyway.

That's right, Nada, the magazine about nothing at all. On newstands now!

I get American Rifleman, my wife gets American Freedom-but we rarely "read" them.

While they are so much better than the sorry stuff they put out in the late 80s and the 90s, they still are pretty weak.

We'll glance through them to see if anything catches our attention, then toss 'em.

That's sad, to me, as I remember the Rifleman of the late 50s and early 60s. Great content, great writers. I really looked forward to Rifleman's arrival every month.

Actually, most all the gun mags were quality mags during those years.

We also get Guns and American Handgunner, though I am on the fence about resubscribing to them.

American Rifleman

Art of the West and American Association of Individual Investors. I subscribed to The New Yorker and Harper's for decades for the quality of the writing. About three years ago I tumbled to the fact that they hadn't written a non-fiction article that appealed to me in years and the fiction had taken the hard left turn to the point that every story had one or more features of American life that I find repugnant.

They missed me for about a year, or at least their renewal computer did. We're done now.

So what's AARP's magazine called?

Several of my professional memberships include magazine subscriptions. The only one I read is the Alaska Business Journal. The aviation stuff I give to an old-time mechanic who lives mostly off-grid and loves them. The gun related NRA crap gets tossed into the trash. The veteran organization ones get donated to the local vet center I help support.
