Moment of truth...when sudden danger imposes the crucial test of man and gun.
This is the moment for which RUGER BLACKHAWK revolvers are built, and the reason why their correct manufacture is a matter of honor to our company.

I like the tiny little "R.C.B.S. Gun and Die Shop" ad on the lower corner of page 42. I guess that worked out eventually.

I always wanted the Shultz & Larsen M60 rear locking bolt in 7x61 Sharpe & Hart. Almost as slick as a Krag.

the ads are fun to drool over.

the little woman-big gun article was fun, too.

but,,, the thing that struck me most was the pro-gun law article,

could have been taken from today's news, 53 years ago. what the heck?

stand strong, get involved, THEY will never give up.

[O.S.O.K.]

That was fun to look at - thanks!

And it just shows you how little has really changed over the last 50 years!

"the pro-gun law article", "how little has really changed over the last 50 years"

I thought the same thing.

The more things change the more they remain the same.

I loved comparing prices between different guns and how they stack up to today's prices.

Also enjoyed reading a bit of unabashed, unrepentant, w/o remorse male chauvinism.

Sorry, ladies...

Did anyone notice the cost of optics relative to today? Imagine having to pay a rent payment for a scope sight, and not the best at that.
