What are you looking for? What would be different enough to strike your fancy? Give us something to work with, and I bet with the broad range of shooting experience on this board we could come up with something.

And yeah, mainstream gun rags - worse than useless anymore. Ever notice most have an advertisement for the test gun on the page either preceding or following the article?

The only gun mags I get anymore that could be even remotely considered "mainstream" are the Rifle and Handloader series. They are both published six times per year, alternating months. They have what I consider to be the most knowledgeable, honest staff with the widest range of expertise and interests in the business. A guy has to be at it a long, long time, and has to have built quite a name for himself in shooting circles to make the grade with these guys. And they pretty much ignore the trendy fads - "tactical" guns, flashlights, underwear, and whatnot have no place with these guys.

The NRA technical staff still give honest reviews as well. I can hardly stand to read The American Rifleman anymore for all its "the sky is falling" political rhetoric (all aimed at frothing the membership up into a donating frenzy), but the technical articles remain quite good.
