BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - AR fans will now have a new source for tips, stories and history based on the AR-15 and other semi-auto rifles as an emerging hunting platform. AR Guns & Hunting is a new digital magazine from Grand View Media Group, and is the first publication to address the AR's sporting applications.
AR Guns & Hunting will feature tips and background on the practical uses, modifications and accessories for the AR as a viable hunting and target-shooting rifle. In addition, expert columns, exciting hunting stories and reviews of AR equipment and accessories will position AR Guns & Hunting as the voice and vanguard of the AR market.
"The overwhelming consumer demand for AR rifles and AR-related products for sporting applications has created a real need for an AR hunting magazine. We are filling that void with the AR Guns & Hunting digital magazine, which also addresses the growing demand for true digital magazines in our industry," said Derrick Nawrocki, Group Publisher for Grand View Media Group.
"We've assembled the industry's finest gun writers, hunting experts and photographers and are poised to produce an exciting new type of gun magazine," said Grand View Media Group Editorial Director Mike Strandlund. "It will be hugely informative and entertaining, and will shoot down any doubt whether the AR-15 can hunt!"
AR Guns & Hunting will take full advantage of a revolutionary online publishing technology. Digital magazines provide the same experience as reading through a printed magazine, including access to all of the articles, complete with photos and advertisements, but with the benefit of interactive content. For the reader, the table-of-contents, embedded page links, keyword search and article sizing for easier readability makes it simple to quickly go to the articles and advertisements they want most. Readers may also watch videos, listen to audio segments, use community sites like Facebook, print stories or send pages via e-mail to fellow enthusiasts.
This is the perfect time to introduce a sporting-oriented AR publication, as estimates are over 1 million ARs have been manufactured and purchased since the November election. In addition to serving as a resource to AR owners, AR Guns & Hunting will also serve to dispel the myth that ARs are not legitimate hunting rifles.
