Spring 2024 magazine

I don’t know. It’s really no one’s business what I get in the mail and a magazine with firearms emblazoned on it isn’t really going to convince rabidly liberal postal workers that they are missing the boat and our cause is a worthy one.

Other collector’s associations mail their publications discretely and don’t even spell out the name of the organization and use abbreviations instead. For example, the Smith & Wesson Collector’s Association becomes “SWCA”.

I understand the reasons behind the desire to not advertise your interest in guns. The internet has changed everything in that our participation in these forums gives away our identities and a well versed person with bad intent can easily find you.
Theft is my biggest concern and my mailman sees the deer heads on the living room wall when he brings PP and knows how they got there. My guns are in 2 Mosler fire proof safes unless in use and other security precautions are taken
Everyone in town knows i shoot and hunt so the locals are aware. My concern is the pro and i have done all i can to defeat him therefore i do not worry about it.
Have a friend who turns his suv backend to the house so that no one can see him put his cased Browning in the back. I asked him if he was ashamed of what he did and he stopped.

The PGCA is so fortunate to have so many dedicated members that freely contribute time and articles for the Parker Pages. Very nice edition!

With the latest statistic of over 60% of households in the USA owning at least one firearm, one should realize that the chances of entering a home with a firearm is greater than not should comfort firearm owners and warn off bad actors. It is what it is.

Participation on this forum, particularly, gives away our identity. I brought that up awhile ago. Other forums identify you by your username. This one feels the need, for whatever bizarre reason, to identify you by name. Still don’t understand that.

It’s best to go about life discreetly.

Using an actual name helps get rid of trolls.

It will always be easy for bad guys to figure out your interest in guns. It is best to limit your connection with bad guys and educate your siblings to do the same. Backing your Suburban up to your door to unload guns doesn't solve the problem, but it may help.

Just about everything I do, wear, buy and receive in the mail identifies me as a gun owner. Not sure that hiding my Parker Pages is going to help me much.

BTW, Great issue and thanks to all who contributed. I always look particularly forward to Parker Chronicles. The turkey talk had me laughing out loud.

Look at all the nearly daily NRA mail members receive. It is clearly, boldly marked and I would think that would give anyone the idea that firearms are in the home. Or what about the flyers of upcoming gun auctions? I receive many of those throughout the year.

That's right Mike, ''RED'' ALL THE WAY ! No Matter if you shoot a Parker, Fox, Ithaca, or a AR-15.
