RE: The Magazine 'Gun's review'.

What a superb leading magazine that was back in the day!
Most of you are aware it has 'disapeared' from Magazine shelves, a long time ago!

Do you know why?..........................

Well, when My Father had His Gunshop. He informed Me that as they were VERY active in exposing & attacking. Anything/ person that was to the 'Detriment' of shooting.
And Whoever wanted to impose further restrictions/ban's on Legitimate Shooters.
They campaigned about the various injustices, & against those in power who sought to prevent the civilian ownership of Firearms Etc. (Much like today Really!......)

He informed Me that a VERY wealthy Millionaire MP, who was Anti-Gun. Was 'Targeted' by them constantly for his 'Views' on Firearms Owners.
Well, it transpired that this MP, made the Guns review Magazine team/owners. a VERY attractive financial offer. Which they simply couldn't refuse, & He subsequently Bought them out. & then closed down the Magazine! Why?..... Because He could!!!!

I cant remember the MPs name as it was a long time back now. & My Father is 89 now & has been in Hospital twice recently. For Two minor strokes, & various associated Health Difficulties. So He wont remember either!

It just illustrates the Power of the Sorded topic of coin!......
