Gun digest

#1 Post by the running man »

About 10 years ago i bought a load of gun digest books from an old boy at one of my clubs whonwas giving up, they are mostly all there i added to it with a rare find on ebay, so up to 2016 its onky missing 5 I think, just wondering what i shouod do with them all, its a massive wealth of firearms information, its just taking up space and im nearly all out of shooting these days, at least from club level. Just wishing for a few suggestions (apart from fire source!)

Are they just the annuals or EVERYTHING they printed from 1944 to 2016?
I imagine you'd need a small library about the size of a house! :)

Get them digitized and put them on a website for us all to enjoy. I have no idea how much that would cost, but just think what a marvelous resource it would be for everyone.

I have a similar set: they used to be worth a fortune, but not now, because they are all available on the web.

Yes it would but an agreement with the copyright holder would be required.
