The article ("Random Shots" on page 26 of the October 2010 issue of "American Rifleman") indicates that the NRA intended to pay for the advertisement and that the reason for turning it down was G & G's policy of not running "political ads." Incidentally, about a year ago there was a fluffy article on Louisville in G & G, which failed to mention that Louisville is the site of a big gun show and a first-rate firearms museum, not to mention its proximity to a virtually unique twice a year machine gun shoot. They did cover the barbeque joints pretty thorougly, though.
Thank you. My wife works for a dentist and magazines are delivered to them free to put in the waiting room. She brought home the first issue of Garden & Gun as soon as it arrived. I thumbed through it and the first few but after that I told her to instead just throw them in the trash. Even before I knew about their issue with the NRA I thought their magazine sucked.
