Default Double Gun Journal

It just dawned on me that I've not received a DGJ for the first quarter. Has anyone else received theirs?

Thanks.

I checked the latest issue on my bookshelf, Volume Thirty-Two, Issue 4, Winter 2021. My address label says my subscription expires with Volume 34, Issue 4.

Through the grapevine I heard there was a delay or hold up at the printer's. Seems the norm.

Maybe the printer has had to stoop to getting employees like Bass Pro!! This description of a gun appeared on GI today.

A.H. FOX Model A made in 1906. This is a Philadelphia gun made prior to the Sterling buy out. This was the second attempt by Ansley Fox to produce shotguns and is prior to the addition of extractors. The gun shows wear to the wood and barrel. The barrel has outside pitting near the receiver, but nothing deep and fades farther down the barrel. The wood shows signs of use with moderate marks and dents. As noted in the photos it does have a hairline crack near the tang safety on one side, but the stock is still solid with no play. The shotgun locks up tight and the bores are bright with no signs of internal pitting. 12 Gauge

The pictures show an A.H. Fox Gun Co. A-Grade with serial number 19871 which cards as going to SD&G September 3, 1912.

Default Delivery

Discussion with a neighbor lady who is a purchasing agent for a large printer. Paper shortage and long delivery times. She can’t order until a contract is let. Delivery times are now six months out. Print dates are somewhat shorter.

Earlier this year I got an email from Sporting Classics saying printer delays were delaying issues and they sent me two issues on line.
