Tom,

I am not familiar with this publication... can it be found in places like Waldenbooks or booksamillion ?

There is also a Luger article in the current newstand issue of Gun&Ammo HANDGUNS magazine. The captions and the narrative will make you laugh at times. Wait until you see the photo of the Luger Carbine representative...

Man at Arms is the NRA Collector mag, as Am Rifleman is for shooters and AM Hunter is for, well, hunters. I have never seen it on a news stand; mowbray publications, I believe is the publisher. It is an excellent publication in every respect. <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" />

thanks Tom... I have received the American Rifleman for nearly 4 decades, but haven't ever looked at the others that are available...

Maybe I can run over to NRA headquarters at lunchtime and see if they have any for purchase there... or maybe someone would be kind enough to scan the article and send it to me [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

"Man at Arms" is available on the magazine rack of either Barnes & Nobel or Books-A-Million.... possibly both. I glance at it on occasion.

I checked Books-A-Million when I got off of work and they do carry it. However, they still have the May/June issue on the rack and you fellows must be talking about the July/August issue. Guess you get it sooner than it gets to the stores.
