I used to but my mags from the bookstore then read a comment by Marc that subscriptions helped the magazine a lot more than buying from a bookstore. Didn't understand why just knew I got quite a bit of free info and great reading from this site and if buying a subscription helped the mag financially then this site would be less likely to disappear.

 :DLombard,
 I'm a GREAT shot with pistols, I thought about it :-\ Ask Mechslasher about my shot on a hog ;D. Give me the dates and where to send something.

 The one thing I will add is if you need to support your bookstore, and I understand this, you can at least support PA by not being so negative in your posts.
it just stirs the pot with sensationalism and research without all the facts, kinda like the evening news.

So...no one has answered the Questions listed ...Do you have to be a Subscriber to  Vote or win Junes BOM? Do you have to be a Subscriber to vote on all BOM's in the Future...or can anyone vote? (this just don't seem fair...if you have to be a Subscriber to enter)...just need to know.... ;)

Yeeeesh. All this commotion over six pennies a day.  :-\ 

I think this site is well worth paying six cents a day to use. But its still free(thank you primitive archer management) and BOM is a very tiny part of what this site has to offer.

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if hard copies are available in the UK? And if so, what kind of price?
I'd be happy to subscribe to a paper version.

Just looked at the price of subscribing to a hard copy of PA shipped to the UK. $160.00 for the year! Sorry, the shipping is prohibitive. Why so much? It doesn't cost anything like that to ship from the UK to the US.

No offense Barney but I have no idea where you got that price from because it certainly wasn't at PA.  A 3 year international subscription doesn't cost half of that, it's only $2 more than a 3 year Canadian subscription.

You need to check again, it is:
$28 for 1 year international
$48 for 2 years international
$68 for 3 years international
