How Bad Of A Hit Did Guns & Ammo Take ??
« on: January 08, 2014, 02:19:39 PM »
Does anyone know how much the readership of Guns & Ammo magazine has dropped since the whole Dick Metcalf incident? I'm wondering because I wrote them a E-Mail voicing my displeasure with the article, and told them I won't be renewing my subscription, which I've had with them for over 40 years.

Without exaggeration my phone has rung every night around dinner time for the last month, (Intermedia Outdoors is displayed on the LCD caller ID screen). I don't answer it. I'm guessing I'm not the only guy experiencing this. Anyone else?

Answer it once and repeat what your letter said, then tell them to stop calling. Thats all it will take, worked for me.


edit to clarify: I never sent a letter, just a cancel/quit subscrption and only answered after several missed calls.
"The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
- Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776

Numbers aren't in that I can find for the time period since Metcalf the Dick committed career suicide.
Early '13, (1st half) numbers showed a pretty good increase compared to other print media.
I bet that changes!
I don't think the '14 numbers will be known till June or July.
You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles; but at least they drive slowly past schools.
