I called 2 1/2 weeks ago.....still waiting.

Still waiting....ugh. Mailed Dec 8th? 20th today.

Mine arrived today. Told my wife this is the first one I won't have read before the next one arrives...assuming it's on time.

Still nothing here. No magazine, no answer to my e-mail.

As much as I previously enjoyed the magazine, the main reason I discontinued my subscription was because of what you're all experiencing. It was a real crap shoot as to when the magazine would hit my doorstep. There were always a lot of "reasons," but things never seemed to get on track. Regular delivery was a pipe dream so, after three years, I figured it wasn't worth shelling out my hard earned funds to be inconvenienced. Just my take on it. Your mileage may vary.

That's all for now. Take care and until next time...be well.

Nothing today I emailed them. I also started a 2 year subscription in August of this year, I have received magazines until Nov/Dec

Got mine today!!

 

[Hatman/2nd line]

I had emailed Jason about the magazine, mainly because I had just renewed and wondered if the renewal went thru! He got back to me to let me know all was well and that they were a little late in getting it all together.

Some seem to get their mails answered.

Not me….

Arrived here on the 20th.

I love the feel of paper. But I also know postal rates are high and going up again. Cost of printing is outrageous. I do not know how many people are writing articles today. I just lost another lifetime magazine to Internet pdf files only. I really suspect that will happen soon to all our magazines.

Not got mine yet.

My issue had 94 pages but something was said to be continued on pg. 103; not knocking the wonderful magazine, I love it, just they must be having a "glitch" and I look forward to reading it well into the future. This is not a huge mass market magazine, it's for a smaller niche market like us!

The problem seems to be widespread. People on this forum who say they have not received their copy are located all over the USA, and Canada.
I did see on the morning news today that the Soddy-Daisy Post Office (here in Tennessee) has a huge back log of mail stacked in bins all over their facility because of being short-staffed at present. Could my copy of Muzzleloader be in one of those bins?

Yet, I have received my copies of other publications that I subscribe to. So...............?

My check for $8 was cashed quickly by Dixie for the new catalog; let's see if the delivery is fast, too! I get it every year, since the 1960's y'all!

Still waiting for my Nov/Dec issue.

My November/December 2023 issue arrived yesterday, December 21st. I haven’t had time to read much of it yet, but it looks like a pretty good issue. There was a nice article about Ohio-style percussion rifles, by Matt Wulff… a refreshing change from his usual Eastern reenactor-themed topics, which I generally skim over but seldom read. I did read this one. There looks to be a well-illustrated article about a special Hawken rifle built by Jim Parker, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. I thought someone in a previous post on this thread said there was an article in this issue about the Chinook trade jargon, but if there is, I haven’t found it.

Anyway, it looks as if this issue is starting to come in now for us subscribers. If you haven’t gotten yours yet, it probably won’t be long.

Best regards,

Notchy Bob

The delays must be affected by location. I received mine a week or ten days ago. I have read it; it's good, worth the wait. Dale

Mine arrived about a week ago. I have been a subscriber since the late 1970's. Yes, it seems the vast majority of their articles focus on the east. I understand much of the reason for that is who submits the articles for publication. When I was our club's newsletter editor, I heard all kinds of criticisms and excuses for why information and articles were not submitted. some people simply can't make a deadline until that day or later. Specialty publications depend upon submissions. Considering the holidays and the volume of mail, December publications can be delayed. Still worth having than not.

Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus..mine arrived today
In years gone by I would get the January /February issue by this date. It's still the best...other mags are subpar and full of advertisements.

 

[Salty]

Yup mine arrived today also.

 

[Bnewberry]

I got mine yesterday and didn’t even have to contact anyone!
