Coming later this month to a newsstand near you.
New gun culture magazine ‘Recoil’ hit shelves after SHOT Show and almost immediately sold out. At least almost everywhere. We are in DC this week and ran across several copies just sitting on the shelf in a books store, so we decided to liberate them and give them away to our readers.
As you can see, there are three copies of ‘Recoil’ and each will be given away to a different reader along with some SSD swag. Yes, these include the psycho clown target.
Here’s how we are going to do it. On this post on SSD, tell us your story on how you just missed getting a copy from the news stand. Three winners will be chosen at 1200 GMT on Friday 30 March, 2012. Make sure you comment with a valid email address because it’s how we will contact you. You’ll have 24 hours to claim your prize from when we send the announcement email to you. If you don’t reply with your address, we’ll select another winner. Void where prohibited. Must be 18 to enter.
Feel free to share this with your friends.
Recoil magazine’s premier issue hit newsstands yesterday. Intended for the “gun lifestyle”, Recoil is a fun read. If you don’t believe there is a “gun lifestyle” just go to SHOT Show. You’ll see it in full force. It’s nice to see someone launching an actual printed publication in this day and age.
The photography is excellent. Two other things set it apart in my opinion. One is the format size and the other is the paper. It almost reminds me of the slew of Japanese “gun” rags (Combat, Strike, Guns, etc) with a touch of Wired and Maxim thrown in for good measure. But, it’s assuredly American and definitely caters to those of us who are into the gear.
You can tell these guys are fans by the content but I hope they bring in some outside talent to change it up a little. Let’s hope they can keep it going. If they can sustain their quality at this level they’ve got a dedicated reader in me.
I almost forgot…it comes with a free psycho clown target.
