Default More useful background info about "Women & Guns"...

Some more useful background info on "Women & Guns" (newsletter / magazine)...

It was started in 1989 by Sonny Jones (i.e. Sonya Myers - Jones was her maiden name)...

It started off as a paid-subscription only newsletter...

At some point, it also came to be sold on newsstands. Sonya (Sonny) also passed the baton at some stage to others to run it...

It grew to a circulation of 20,000... (That's pretty successful!)

It is now just a website, however...

Here are some interesting links, if you're interested in the history...

This one is about how Bill's wife, Sonya, came to start her newsletter, "Women & Guns"...

She didn't choose that topic at random!

Her process is worth reading about!
