Magazine subscriptions

[beararms1776]

There are a lot of firearm magazines and I was curious as to which ones have the better and more accurate reviews. I was thinking about subscribing to one but I want to get a decent magazine.

I get all of 'em , but the best IMO is American Handgunner and GUNS. You can usually get these 2 as a package deal.

I would agree with the above and add in Handgun magazine as another informative source for handguns aswell. Just MHO

What type of shooting are you interested in? For competitive handgun shooting, I would recommend American Handgunner. For NFA and military weapons, Small Arms Review. For self defense, police, and tactical shooting, I read Swat.

I just became a paid member of the NRA yesterday and i picked "American Rifleman"... Is this magazine any good? I do like rifles...lol

I love Combat Handguns, although it is not as good as it was a few years back and NRA's America's 1st Freedom.

SWAT is a good mag, and sometimes has articles written by Boone County Sheriff Ken Campbell.

Another vote here for American Handgunner and Guns. I've been reading Guns Magazine literally for as long as I've been able to read.

Also, on Guns magazine's website each month, you can download their issue from the current month FIFTY YEARS ago. It's way cool.

"American Rifleman" has some interesting articles and I like to read about the new items coming out, but sometimes it seems the reviews are more like advertisements and less like reviews. I have never really read them anything negative about a weapon.

I agree...American Hangunner....Guns...congrats on NRA join...enjoy magazine...

This. I've been travelling for work the last few days and when I came home last night, both of these were in the mail pile!

I sub to HandloadeR and Rifle, that being said, Meijer has added "loafing benches" in the books and mag section. Went early this morning and grabed a coffee and a danish, settled in for a long days read. Sure you can get weird looks, just use a sticky name tag with your address on it, most people think I have all-timers and am waiting for my family to finish shopping.
