PBN tried that years ago and failed miserably. I still have yet to see one issue... not even a scan.

There is far too much to lose in a print magazine. Not to mention it would lead us one step closer to needing more money and catering to the whims of the advertisers.

However, I do think a monthly news letter could work. Highlighting all the goings on around here. Game schedules, appearances, news, etc...

I really think that a Mag with a different view and have airsmith's sections, how to's and reviews...

Better reporting of events....not the Sponsor gloss over...

as to the whims of the advertisers.....The ones with the MCB view would be the only ones interested...Can't see the "other" ones being in it....

Anyhow...still waiting....

I just think the cost of a nice magazine is to high. But I do like the premise and think it could be carried out in a different, less costly medium.

What might work is that you approach a magazine plublisher...like Peterson or someone like that....They have the funds and means to do it....

Perhaps MCB could have a section in Paintball News. Saves the cost of publishing and the content already leans toward MCB tastes. As a bonus, Rene is in the same general area as our fearless leader.

I'll put a curb on the shrinkage swiftly at 300fps.
