Default 1977/78 AutoMag articles by Kent Lomont

For those who were interested in the AutoMag articles in the 1977/1978 Gun Digest by Kent Lomont...

I located Part 2 on eBay; it's on the way...

Marc [mrerick] was kind enough to compile them into downloadable PDF files...

35 year old articles...

I would like to read it as well. I have the article by Kent Lomont on handloading for the Auto-Mag. We could get that up as well after Part 1 and 2 is put up. If any interest?

The first part of the AutoMag article appeared in the 1977 31st edition of "The Gun Digest".

I've attached a PDF from Postino's scans.

This is compatible with the Acrobat Reader V6 and later. Size is just about 2MB. The article has been indexed and can be searched by keyword.

Here is part 2 in PDF form. Scanned; optimized and OCR text searchable: (Note - this is a 1.3MB file - it was necessary to compress this larger article more to fit. There is some "blockiness" to the images and large text)...
