Better late than never

[No Powder]

Is anyone else patiently waiting for their Nov., Dec. issue of Muzzleloader magazine?

[dmarsh]

Have not received mine.   

[Bigsmoke]

Actually, no I am not.
My subscription expired many years ago, and I was not impressed enough with it to renew.
Same goes for Muzzleblasts.

I understand. The last time I renewed, there was a price increase in effect.  But I was able to get it at the old price. Might have to reconsider when it comes time to renew.

I wrote an email to muzzleloader about that.
 Haven't heard back in a week.
 It's been late several times recently .

With the paper shortage and consequent higher prices, a lot of the magazines are going on-line only.  Unfortunately that seems to be the niche publications catering to a small group.  I have a hard time reading long articles on the confuser and would much rather have a paper copy in hand.  Plus, several studies have shown that retention is greater when a person has to physically handle and turn pages.  I can save the print copies in a box for later reference while trying to find the appropriate one on line doesn't work well for me!  I wouldn't be surprised to see Muzzleloader drop the paper copy option and that we will only be able to access it via the Internet.

At the same time, I agree with Bigsmoke.  I did not renew my first subscription (30 years ago) for the same reasons.  I only re-upped last year and am not planning to renew when that runs out.

Has anyone received the current issue yet.
 This is ridiculous.

[Bigsmoke]

Has anyone called them up yet to find out what the problem is?
I would imagine the phone number is listed somewhere in the magazine.
Just saying.

I still haven't received mine yet. I thought someone said Muzzle Blast was late too. I don't get the latter, so I can't verify that.

If I recall, I believed this has happened other times (years back), and I "think" it had something to do with their printers who put the final product / Magazine together??? Don't quote me on that,,, but this has happened before.

I no longer have a dog in the fight (when it comes to being a subscriber) as there comes a point in one's life - where things like (Magazine Subscriptions) become repetitive material with different players (so to speak). However, (like back in the "old" days - if I saw a copy in the Magazine Rack - I'd latch onto it). I have no idea at all if they even go the "Magazine Rack" route anymore?

With this said, it's still one of the very best publications out there IMHO.

You're right Joe. I think our local Tractor  Supply  still has it on their book & magazine rack. When my subscription runs out,  I'll just look there for it. Now that brings up a question. How many issues of  Buckskin ner magazine were available to TMA members. I am only aware of two. But I think there were a few more?

I have Volume 1 Numbers 1 through 5. Best magazine ever produced in my opinion.  Hated that things went south that quickly. A sorry state of affairs.

[No Powder]

I only have Volume 1, numbers 4 & 5. For some reason I didn't get all of them.

[Bigsmoke]

I think I got all of them also.
But where are they now?  I have no idea.

[BEAVERMAN]

I just found them again in the bottom of a file cabinet when moving, think I have all 5, will have to look tomorrow if I remember, maybe I'll go write it down, then hopefully I will remember to look at my note pad sometime within the next month!
