Cad, I'm a big fan of the Carbine Club. I bought the back issues a year ago and am still finding new info in them. Do yourself a favor; after the initial rush of looking up subjects of special interest to you, make your own index. The only area where the NL disappoints is the inadequate index. It is useful, but very incomplete. My own indexing project took maybe 6-8 hours (not counting getting distracted by articles as i went). My index is also imperfect, but it has saved much frustration in finding an article I had previously read.

Most importantly, I am impressed with the high ethical standards from Isuue #1 through today. They tell you what they know as fact, what is interpretation, and what is an educated guess. The editor has been very kind to me, always responding when I sent any little tidbit of info. My kind of people.

Don't be surprised if it takes several months to receive the back issues. It will be worh the wait.
