(GunReports.com) — Gun Tests Magazine, the 23-year-old consumer resource for the serious shooter, will partner with Auction Arms to collect and report up-to-the-minute, accurate firearms pricing.
“Gun Tests is the only firearms publication that pits current firearms head to head and critically reports their pros and cons,” said Gun Tests Publisher Timothy H. Cole. “For most of the magazine’s history, we have included only manufacturer’s suggested retail pricing, since counter prices can vary so much from story to store.
“Using Auction Arms’s recent sales data, Gun Tests Magazine can now confidently include actual sales prices for guns we test from a nationally available source.” AuctionArms.com, Inc. CEO Manny Dela Cruz said, “As a subscriber myself I’ve always appreciated the unbiased view of guns that Gun Tests offers. Pricing information from Auction Arms will complement the magazine’s opinions by showing the subscribers the real-world costs of firearms and accessories that Gun Tests readers might want to buy.”
Gun Tests Magazine is published by AG Media, a subsidiary of Belvoir Media Group LLC. Belvoir publishes 31 reader-focused magazines and newsletters in interest areas that range from human wellness, antiques and sailboats to pet care, organic living and general aviation.
In addition to Gun Tests in the firearms segment, AG Media also produces American Gunsmith magazine and the website GunReports.com. Principal offices are in Norwalk, CT, and Sarasota, FL.
