Everything a Gun Enthusiast Would Want Inside GUNS Magazine April Issue
OutdoorHub 02.22.12
In the April issue of GUNS Magazine, John Taffin admits that while he loves practicing with his older, beautifully customized sixguns, if he was expecting trouble he would pack the Taurus 24/7 G2 instead. He writes in the cover feature, “Day or Night,” that the gun seems like someone tried to include everything a gun enthusiast would want in a high- capacity, self-defense pistol.
“I’m not sure when they changed from being a follower to a leader, but Taurus has been both innovative and aggressive and shooters have benefited. A perfect example of the path Taurus is following can be seen in their newest semi-automatic pistol,” says Taffin. “Taurus obviously does not know how to do things in a small way.”
John Barsness writes about the differences in ammo and attitude of big-game hunters who fall into three categories: Traditionalists, Y2Ks and Averages. In his article “Classic or Modern,” he compares the pros and cons of sticking with ammo introduced before 1912, with that introduced after 2000, as well as the factory ammo that can be purchased everywhere. In “Consolidation,” Mike “Duke” Venturino muses about semi-retirement and the need it would bring to cut back from reloading 48 different cartridges. Readers will find out which 17 firearms Duke would decide to keep – if he ever does retire!
