Anybody received theirs yet? Really, I'm only posting this because I figure that it will be in the mailbox today if I do.

Because of delivery problems, i.e., no FS's for several months, I opted for electronic delivery, which has worked very well thus far. I don't know what the problem is, but I've had the electronic FS #251 for several weeks.

I got mine yesterday and you probably will today. Things just work that way sometimes.

Just put in for another two years, always look forward to receiving it. I only get two, the FS and just ordered the BackWoodsman.

I should be getting the American Rifleman since I'm a NRA member but it doesn't interest me much anymore.

The APO/FPO, AK, HI and overseas mail FS go out first, then CONUS. Give it another week.

I got my electronic version last week and so did my buddy in Italy.

Thanks for the reassurance. As I said, I'll probably get mine today or tomorrow.

The only periodical I get digital is American Rifleman. They seemed to just pile up. I had rather that money go to "influencing" lawmakers.

Got mine on Monday. I like it in the magazine format , more relaxing than reading off a computer screen IMHO.

Well! It didn't come today but at least I know it is not a month past when others got their copy.

Alamogunr, your post gave me a flashback to many years ago when the most active trade medium out there was the Shotgun News publications. When my copy arrived I would instantly stop everything else I had going on and would read the ads until my eyes crossed. Some times I got lucky and got an item of interest. It was more common that if I found something really nice I would call when I saw it, that being the day the paper hit my mail box. It was all too often that the seller would claim to have sold that item 3-7 days ago to someone calling about his ad in Shotgun News. This always frustrated me that others got their News so much earlier than I got mine. The old phrase "patience, grasshopper" had not come around at that time, but it fit the situation. Some days you win, others you don't. Hope your luck improves.

Mine came Thursday. I enjoy the magazine format as well, just old fashioned I guess.

I should have posted earlier. I got mine Friday. Already read half of it. Even though I don't have the guns in some of the articles, I still learn something from them. Kind of got a shock when I went to GunBroker to look up .25-20 rifles. Nothing under $1K.
