While watching my University of Washington Huskies go down to defeat in the Rose Bowl, I was thumbing through The American Rifleman for 1935, and found a couple of good ads featuring Chas. Askins, Jr.

Western Cartridge Co. was fast and got this on the back cover of the August 1935, issue.

Colt's Patent Fire Arms Mfg. Co. was a bit slower and got this in the September 1935 issue.

I was looking at Chas. Askins, Sr. articles in the 1935 volume of The American Rifleman to see if he had anything similar there to the Outdoor Life column that started this thread. From the December 1934 issue to the July 1935 issue was a multi-part reminisce about his early duck shooting adventures in Illinois.
