The wonderful photography seems to have taken the place of "substance" ......... the technicana, the how-to-do, hands-on stuff that attracts me. SSM has had some beautiful photographs, but I'm into shooting the guns more than shooting the pics. DGJ is the last bastion, and it is slowly turning into a collector's magazine, more than shooting. I hate to see that, but still enjoy it, four times a year.

It all makes me more grateful that Al Gore invented the internet wink , so that at least the exchange of information can take place.

As I posted on another forum, I doubt that SSM will miss me. But, I won't lose any sleep over that.
