Quite Throwing Away Your Catalogs & Mags!!!

By accident I just stumbled upon a free and easy (my two favorite words in the English Language) way to help gun rights and also recycle at the same time. I have to admit that after I read the different pro-gun magazines, slick looking gun catalogs or even commercial gun magazines, I would let them lay around a long time (too long to suit my wife) and then either sometimes throw them out or send them to the recycling center. But I accidently found a much better use for all those nice looking publications which will help gun rights. I just make sure they get passed around in my community.
Ideally the one best person to actually hand an American Rifleman magazine, or a GunsnStuff slick looking catalog to would be someone who has never owned guns but is thinking about buying some. All they need is a little push. But failing that just leave the gun literure almost anyway is far better than letting it sit somewhere unread by anyone but you. Leave something in the lunchroom at work, or on a park bench or as a last resort, in the men's bathroom stall. I was looking at a borrowed copy of shotgunnews at work the other day and a co-worker had his interest caught by a really good price on a used police trade in S&W .38 special. I let himm copy down the info and he went ahead and ordered the gun. I don't think he has purchased many guns because he was clueless about how to process the purchase and I was able to help him. So thanks to a gun catalog we now have one more shooter among us which is a GOOD THING! Whadda think?
When guns were invented everything changed. For the first time in the history of the world a frail woman had a chance to sucessfully defend herself and home. My dream is that one of the anti-gun nuts will need a gun for defense and be unable to have one because of their own actions.

Tell me where you work though, and I'll come pick up your used ones in the bathroom [:p] since I only work a few miles away (I work in Shawnee Mission). Those mags are expensive, I think, and I usually spend my extra money like that on books.

Also, just had this thought, but are there any gun rights organizations active in this area that you know about?

In regards to shooting I don't like the bullethole indoor range. I don't think management trys to keep their range in good condition nor do they carre much about the comfort of their customers who come to shoot. There is an indoor range in Claycomo, MO and Independence, MO that is much better although smaller and they appreciate the business. One is the centerfire range aka Clayco Gun shop and the other is the Crossfire range. Therre is also a gun club in Missouri call the Pioneer Gun Club and they have an outdoor range and I believe an indoor range that members can use any time they choose. There are two outdoor ranges in Johnson County one of whilch I am thinking about joining. I also have a membership in the Williamsburg, KS (S.W. of Ottawa, KS) Outdoor range where I can go anytime and using my key to let myself onto the property and shoot rifles, shotguns or pistols or just put a boat onto the lake and fish, etc. Membership is lilmited to only letting new people buy a membership fromsomeone giving their's up. Cost anywhere from $200-500 but then only $31.00 per year.
