    every reputable gun owner should be an NRA Member.

    The lesson the Colorado recall holds for all NRA members is that our success
    depends upon going the extra mile to stand for what we believe in, to support
    the candidates and elected of cials who wage our battles in Congress and in
    the state legislatures, and to encourage other gun owners to join our cause.

    Is there any doubt that Americans, all things being equal, still prefer
    the .45 ACP? Sturm, Ruger & Co. introduced two .45s this year, one is
    cutting-edge and the other is a classic. Take your pick.

    n the past few years, there has been a sea change in the methods and
    locations of how rearm sales are conducted. Technology, new business
    models, destination stores, expansive ranges and other factors might just
    change where you ll out your next Form 4473.

    In the old days, off-body carry entailed rudimentary “fanny packs” for
    handguns and rearm-speci c cases for ri es and shotguns. Today, a wide
    variety of discreet cases make off-body carry a whole new proposition.

    The iconic Thompson Submachine Gun was the main Allied submachine
    gun used in the critical early years of World War II. From Bataan to the
    Kasserine Pass, and from Normandy to Okinawa, the “Tommy Gun”
    served American troops well.

    Fathers in the Field works with churches across the country to identify

    THE COVER:
    Sturm, Ruger & Co. made alot of “P-series” polymer-frame
    semi-automatic pistols, but they were large, heavy guns
    that were far from sleek. That changed with the SR series,
    starting with the SR9. Well, that gun has a new big brother,
    a remarkably sleek 10-round .45 ACP named the SR45,
    shown here with a Laser-Max laser on its dustcover. For
    more on this new Ruger—as well as the new SR1911
    Commander in .45 ACP—turn to Field Editor Wiley Clapp’s
    story beginning on p. 56. Photo by Forrest MacCormack.

    The John Wayne Tribute Rifle
    John Wayne stood larger than life on the silver screen, and just as tall in real
    life. During his long career, he appeared in more than 150 films, and audiences
    around the world recognized him as the one man who best represented the
    patriotic spirit of America.
    More than 30 years after his death, John Wayne
    still ranks among the top 10 most popular movie stars in the
    annual Harris Poll, and his movies continue to be viewed by
    millions of Americans, ensuring his status as a legendary
    American icon.
    Many people remember him best from his
    Westerns. He was the lawman who tamed the wild
    towns, the gunfighter who stood up for the poor
    and powerless, the iron-willed westerner who
    wouldn’t back down.
    Now, America Remembers,
    with authorization from John Wayne
    Enterprises, LLC proudly announces
    the John Wayne Tribute
    Rifle, a handsomely decorated firearm issued in remembrance and tribute to this
    distinguished American and legendary Western film star.
    To honor America’s favorite Western movie star, we selected the classic Model
    ‘73 rifle, arguably America’s most famous Western rifle. Often called “the rifle
    that won the West,” the Model ‘73 has been admired for decades as an
    engineering landmark, representing light-weight utility and long-ranged
    power. The rugged lever action proved simple to operate and offered
    quick and plentiful firepower. Since its days of action on the Western
    frontier, the Model ‘73 has become a classic – widely desired and
    highly collectible. Each John Wayne Tribute Rifle is a handsome
    working recreation of the immortal Winchester Model 1873
    rifle produced for us by the master craftsmen of A. Uberti,
    the world’s premier maker of historical firearms recreations.
    Every metal surface of the John Wayne Tribute
    Rifle is finished in a mirror-polished, lustrous
    deep blue by craftsmen commissioned for
    this project by America Remembers. The
    receiver features artwork in 24-karat gold and
    scrollwork in the tradition of the finest
    presentation firearms.
    Only 3500 John Wayne Tribute Rifles
    have been authorized for this edition and
    demand is expected to be very strong.
    Reservations will be accepted in the order
    they are received. We will arrange delivery
    of your working Tribute through a
    licensed dealer of your choice. If for
    any reason you are less than
    satisfied, you may return the
    Tribute in original unfired
    condition within 30
    days for a complete
    and courteous
    refund. Act today
    to secure your
    own Tribute

    edition
    closes.

    portrait. The handsome
    walnut stocks are checkered
    and finished to a high gloss,
    and the hammer and trigger

    UNDER ATTACK

    The right side of the receiver features a scene familiar to every fan of
    Western classics. In it, John Wayne leads the U.S. Cavalry through the buttes
    and dry gullies of desolate Monument Valley. Above the scene flies a banner
    that reads “John Wayne.”
    Left side of the receiver features John Wayne as a wagon train scout, leading settlers and a cavalry
    escort through Apache territory. This scene was taken from the painting, “Under Attack,” by famed
    Western artist Frank McCarthy. And if you look closely, you will see a rifle in John Wayne’s right hand!
    Handsome scrollwork in the tradition of the finest firearms frames the artwork, with all artwork being
    featured in stunning 24-karat gold.
