Guns and Ammo Editor Supports Gun Control in Editorial Feature for December Issue

The Free Patriot ^ | November 3, 2013

[Secret Agent Man]

At the time the Second Amendment was penned,

there were no government regulations or laws or restrictions concerning how a person’s gun worked, or mandating it had anything, or couldn’t have anything, attached to it, enhancing it, making it more accurate, more lethal, or more silent, or able to be reloaded faster, or ANYTHING of the sort.

The guns the people had were in the same class of weapon the regular British troops had.

I don’t have a subscription but I am sure as hell never going to start one.

I hope gun owners don’t confuse purchasing Guns and Ammo with buying the myriad of other gun magazines.

[Secret Agent Man]

Yes, well-regulated in the context means WELL TRAINED. Not that their actual firearms were regulated.

If that were the case we’d have seen a reference to this in their Federalist Papers or someone’s recorded speeches. IT IS NEVER MENTIONED in the context of determining acceptable firearm characteristics, it is ALWAYS mention in terms of a trained and able militia in case they need to assemble and deal with a threat.

My December issue of Guns and Ammo came with a renewal notice, “This Is Your Last Issue!” How prophetic.

When it comes to gun control, gun owners must hang together or they will hang separately. Metcalf has chosen to hang separately.

If you're receiving the American Rifleman, and you should be, then you don't need G&A.

I hope gun owners don’t confuse purchasing Guns and Ammo with buying the myriad of other gun magazines.

Frankly if this represents the thought of the magazine, one can only guess what other information they are getting wrong.

I liked it when they had Bob Milek, Ross Seyfried, and Jeff Cooper writing.

That is about the era I was reading it in as well and stopped when they left. Have not read a copy in decades. The covers are usually over the top from what I see. They are after a different audience now.

I subscribed to Guns and Ammo in the 60s and 70s then let it go until maybe 5 years ago when I re-subscribed. My subscription ends July 2015 or was at least scheduled to end then. I will cancel it Monday.

I will say I was getting a little tired of nothing but $3000.00 1911s, and $3500.00 ARs being the only thing they tested.

After the avalanche of subscription cancellations and (probably) class action suit by subscribers, his jackass needs to be fired and sued for violating his fiduciary responsibilities, fraud, and anything else that will stick. Thanks BulletBobCo.

Sorry Dick, in the era of Obama and Company, we will continue to oppose any and all measures to infringe on our second amendment rights. the leftists have proven their ill intents repeatedly. As such, not an inch of ground will be given to them. They’re going to have to fight tooth and nail for any gains they may or may not make. And while they fight to weaken the second amendment, we will fight to strengthen it and when the dust has settled, you won’t be able to walk down an American street without tripping over an assault rifle.

“Metcalf him!” - bad guy in The Tick live action TV show.

I canceled my subscription today and let them know the Metcalf editorial was the reason.

People say what is the big deal.....it’s just one guy. Well, that one guy wrote the article, but it had to make it past several other people before getting published, none of which hold the 2A in high regard.

Screw them I am done with them.

[MileHi]

Best of times in that era. Not so much since.

[Tijeras_Slim]

I will admit I picked up one recently (before this mess) and the only article I enjoyed was Garry James writing about some antique military weapons.

Everyone else is a hack, and Boddington only seems interested in leveraging his “reputation” into getting free hunts.

Very likely. The magazine has to pay the price now.

A career ending move if I ever saw one.
