I had ZERO interest in Soldier of Fortune type TRASH magazines - I was strictly interested in fishing and bird and small and big game HUNTING.
........Then about 1970 for some reason young (stupid) MEN stopped NORMAL old-school hunting and started doing BS things like PLAY hunting each other with PAINTBALL toys.
..........The GUN MAKERS got twerped-out and PANICKED about profits FALLING. So they found some way to PROPAGANDIZE the newer generation into BUYING real guns not TOY paintball guns. Their method was to change the emphasis in the HUNTING magazines INTO jerk-type Soldier of Fortune-type magazines and push their VERY EXPENSIVE military-style rifles with silencers, front vibrating dampeners, military optics, semi-auto, BIG, BIG, stupid USELESS magazine-type ADULT TOY GUNS. What a joke .........big men have big magazines - sounds and looks like a phallic symbol to boost their SAGGING LABIDOES.
.........Another humorous thing about Paintball game participants........our generation played TAG and relieveo when we were KIDS. The paintball thing is like ADULTS (supposedly grown MEN) playing a stupid version of TAG OR TAB. And they pay BIG money for their PAINT GUNS and they waste TIME doing it and probably AFTERWARD go get some beers and tell each other what BRAVE SOLDIERS they are. What do I expect from a generation raised on JOHN WAYNE movies and Clint Eastwood.........The Good the Bad and the PAINTBALL ugly !!!!!!
