Default Your Choice of Reading Material

Being in this hobby for 2 months now got me thinking about this... What do you consider to be your preferred periodical/magazine of choice?

None really, I read books! Mostly Bible, prophecy types! Throw in some GB Packers, survival, and anything that could potentially be useful!

I subscribe to two firearms related publications; Shotgun News, which is an advertising sheet with some articles, and Guns magazine which, I believe has the bust gun writers in the business. I also receive the NRA magazine that comes with the membership, but it usually remains largely unread until it finds its way to the burn pile.

Unfortunately, I find that too many of the gun mags have become one long advertisement for the newest, latest golly gee whiz to hit the market. I have a sub to Guns & Ammo (present from the kids) and I DO get the American Rifleman, but most of my gun related reading has been books rather than periodicals.

Outside of guns, am a prolific reader- enjoy good sci-fi, and continually looking for good info on "how to" do something for self.

If it ain't on here I prly don't read it. This is a much more entertaining way to get info than any book or magazine. I always have my phone on me so any time I need a good read its here.
