Intrigued, I read her story inside, very nice. Most Caliber .30 often I don’t even open them, but this cover girl is por- trayed by an amazing woman shooter and not just the Page 10 bearer of a nice set of boobs. No offense to your models but it is the image projected. Or…bit of humor, at least equal opportunity viewing, put a bare-chested hunk on The Threat there with a nice six pack. LOL There are many women’s shooting organizations out Has there. A new and upcoming one, “A Girl and A Gun” has gone national, check it out: www.agirlandagun.org. Changed Wanda Jasper – Onalaska, WA Page 48 Thanks, Wanda, but wouldn’t a “bare-chested hunk” technically be just a bit MORE than “equal opportunity” viewing? Private Dillon ust received your July 2015 Jcatalog and was pleasantly surprised. The picture of the Gets His young lady on the cover for once reflected class and was Luger not inappropriate as most Page 78 come across. Keep up the class act. Albert L.
