Thanks Mechanic! Best, Eric

Holy crap! I don't know where this came from. The thought that the team that puts together SNIPER only supports LE and military owning black rifles couldn't be further from the truth. I don't work with anyone that believes this. Statements like this are cancer. I was born and raised on black...

Hey Knight, If you PM me an overseas address, I'll send you a copy of SNIPER 2013 at no cost. Same goes for anyone else reading this who is currently deployed. I'll keep doing this until I run out of personal copies. I hope you enjoy the magazine! Best, Eric Eric R. Poole, Editor...

Re: All new TRG Mother nature provided a dust test in the form of wicked 30-50 mph winds kicking up a thick sandstorm that lasted for most of the day. We were shooting at Boulder City today, and I mistakenly thought we would be shooting at 1,000 yards. The RSO indicated that our steel...

Re: All new TRG One important consideration when considering old TRG vs new TRG M10 (as it was briefed to me) was that the TRG M10 was specifically configured to meet eligibility requirements for the PSR solicitation and its amendments. As a result from those specs, engineers had to figure...

Re: All new TRG Thought I'd share my first experience testing the Sako TRG M10 here on Sniper's Hide. Tom Beckstrand and I were given the opportunity to be the first Americans to test two examples on Tuesday, January 17th at the Clark County Range in Nevada. We were joined by three foreign SF...

Re: Sniper Magazine Thank you bcw1284, I appreciate the input. The Marine Corps almost had an M40 for us to review, but the opportunity fell through at the end. We were so close. The Army was a lot more inviting this time around, and that's why they got so much coverage. I really, really...

Re: Sniper Magazine Hey Phridum and Snipershide members, I just wanted to take a moment and express my appreciation for Phridum's post of the comment at the end. But I thought I'd offer some information about me that obviously isn't well known. As everyone knows, I am not a sniper and I...

Re: Sniper Magazine Hey Gents, I see that I missed a few posts recently. I've been offline working on a new tactical shotgun magazine. After a meeting with the publishing execs on Friday, I believe with good certainty that there will be a 2nd issue of SNIPER scheduled for 1st QTR 2012. That...

Re: Sniper Magazine Just thought I'd add that Remington was going to be on the cover regardless of whether or not they sponsored "SNIPER" with advertising. At that time, I felt that the XM2010 and MSR was the most "newsworthy" articles to feature and would attract the broadest audience. I'm...

Re: Sniper Magazine Right or wrong—I don't know. Even before I was a writer/editor, I was buying magazines to be sure that our interests were going to remain available and publishing companies didn't axe gun/tactical magazines for lack of profit. I don't want the newsstand to become overrun...

Re: Sniper Magazine Hey 11B101ABN, The "tribal knowledge" is a great point, and the short answer is yes. It was certainly a fine line that was discussed with each contributor and a few military advisors/mentors prior to the proposal. We tried to be sure that the information was obtainable...

Re: Jacob/Rifles Only featured Outdoor Life Article Yeah, the snow was definitely off and on. We had whiteouts at some points. There was good snow on one of Jacob's exercises where he had us climbing a mountain and engaging targets 300-700 yards from high angles across a canyon. It was a good...

Re: Sniper Magazine Thanks High Binder, Don't hesitate to tell me if the magazine or any part of it is a disappointment. I live for constructive feedback. Best, Eric
