Thanks for that Watcher......I used to have lots of old US Gun Mags dating back to the 60s but they got thrown away. Note the lack of adverts.

But look at these prices!!

Sickening isn't it? Just looked at a 1961 'Guns' and there's an ad for .45 Webley revolvers at $14.95!

Try flicking through a 1996 edition of Gunmart if you want a real sickner....... :evil:

I did it to myself a few months back and was cheesed off for days. I even found a copy of Guns & Shooting which featured an article on Seb Coe when he took over as president of the National Pistol Association..... (Four letters begining with "C" that is deemed the most offensive possible! :evil: :evil: :evil: )
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

I still have the letter he replied with when he was just a humble back bench MP, when I compared him to a biblical event involving 30 pieces of silver....

I downloaded the 'Gun' edition for my birth date (January 1959 :oops: ) and found this!

My Birthday edition from October '57 (So you are not the oldest on here! :oops: ) lists a very nice Webley Mk VI chambered in .45 ACP for USD14.95, ammo is another USD6/100 and a leather holster is another three dollars.

They are also selling 30-06 1903 Springfields for USD39.95, a cartridge that has never appealed to me but at that price I could be tempted...
