Mar. 1956 GUNS Now Online


A .55 caliber tank rifle--for $74.95? F.O.B. Los Angeles???

No, we're not in an alternate universe, simply a different time--and one that some of us were alive in. That just goes to show you how much we have lost--and how much that we now deem unbelievable was once commonplace and unquestioned.
Did you know there was also a Buffalo Bill Comstock, and that William F. Cody, who used the same "cognomen," beat him in a hunting demonstration to seal his claim to the name?

You know how politicians tell us guns and bars don't mix? Take a tour of the Military Inn in Dearborn, MI, with its collection of over 10,000 firearms, and see the Governor admiring a Colt believed to be the handgun used to kill Jesse James. (Finger off that trigger, Governor--and you, too, "Annie Oakley.")

Meet a 76-year-old who splits cards at 100 yards, and make the acquaintance of "America's Prettiest Shotgunner." Then admire the craftsmanship of Holland & Holland, "The Finest Gun Makers On Earth."
