Rob0 Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Not knocking any in particular as i do read quite a few but they seem to be covering more adverts that ever(i suppose thats good in one sence) but some of the features always seem to be about guns way beyond the average persons pocket although i do feel that they are well for learner shooters what are your opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red_stag88 Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 I like sporting shooter, but there aint any good mags out at the moment doing good reviews. BRING BACK GUNS REVIEW!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 I ask myself this question every time I renew my Sporting Gun subscription. It has become very predictable, but I accept it is difficult to keep thinking of new ways, to say the same old things. Some months I forget to read it, until the following months magazine arrives. When they chase me up to renew, I hesitate a lot, until they offer me such a good discount, it would be irresponsible of me not to renew. I would also add that fishing magazines are just as bad, but more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deako Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Always renew at the game fair, so you get your free bottle of scotch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highdowns hunter Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I Like the sporting gun and have a subscription, I sometimes buy the shooting times However i was not too impressed with the new shooting mag it made that much impression on me I cant even remember what it is called ) I cant see any reason for Bad language and the like in any magazine even though i use it myself There wasnt any articles in it which caught my attention for more that a few seconds so it will not be getting any of my cash in future :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeyedick Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I think that mag is called the 'sporting shooter'. It wasn't much good 'Gun Mart' is quite interesting as it often gives good reviews on things...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teal Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I get sporting gun and shooting times occasionally. I stopped my subscription for a year with SG though as looking back at the previous years issues they were the same articles rehashed in many cases!!

ernyha Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I received S/Gun on a direct debit subscription but a couple of months ago when seeing 3 copies still in their polythene wrappers un-opened i cancelled my direct debit. By coincidence the very next day i received a letter from them saying that the subscription price was going up, so that made me think i had made the correct decision. As others have mentioned, there is only so much one can keep writing about the same topics and with using this site i find i can get any extra tips or information i need.
