I have been reading Everything I can get my hands on from Massad Ayoob for awhile now. He used to write in one of the gun rags and he is definitely a very smart man. Found the Backwoods Home magazine a couple years ago (i think) has been permanently bookmarked and visited regularly ever since. I have not gotten to read the newest one but as soon as the library here gets it I will.
