View Full Version : Petersen's RifleShooter
Does anyone here have a subscription or any issues of RifleShooter going back to 2000?
I'm looking for information from an article from the November/December 2000 issue.
I've already tried the publisher and gunshows; I can't find any backissues myself. Can anyone help me out?

RMH,
I do have the December 2000 issue of Petersen's RifleShooter. Let me know if that's the one you're looking for.

Well, it's either the September/October or the November/December issue that has an article entitled "Restoration of a Classic Winchester Model 1910" or something like that. I've been searching for this particular article for a few months. I found out about it through a gunshow find of the January/February 2001 issue in which a subscriber thanked the staff for covering this obscure rifle. You can imagine my surprise in missing that particular issue! :D
I want this article because I have a Model 1910 I would like to restore and I believe any infromation from this article would be invaluable. If you could find the time to make a scan or copy of this article, I would be really grateful!

Unfortunatelly, I couldn't find the article in Dec. issue. I do have an Oct. issue and it is not in there either. It might be the Nov. issue which, I am sorry to say, I don't have.
If you have any questions let me know.
Good luck.

Being a bimontly issued magazine, there's no telling how far back that article might have been. Sometimes letters to the staff are held for quite a while. If you have it, could you please check the August 2000 issue?

RMH,
I don't have an August issue but I'll ask around.

Found this mention of the article:

Cougar: "I was just reading an article this past week about some guy restoring his Winchester Mod 1910 in some magazine. The Win Mod 1910 was a clip-fed semi-auto rifle that itself was the outgrowth of the earlier Win Mods 1903, 1905 and 1907. Each model number also is indicative of the year of introduction. They only vary in caliber..."

I'm going to try emailing the guy. Maybe I'm mistaken and it's in Shooting Times? :confused: Time to search my magazine piles!

I thought Petersen's "Rifleshooter" was monthly, and Wolfe Publishing "Rifle" was bimonthly. Maybe the wrong magazine?
