Quick Overall Site Reference
Lee-Enfield Sites, Full Review. SGN Issue #
Colt-SAA Sites, Full Review. SGN Volume 52, Issue #18, June 20, 1998
Model 98 Mausers, Full Review. SGN Issue Volume 52, Issue #30, October 20, 1998
The Shotgun News site
With the expanded issues of SGN was born the Web Collectors column.
This column focuses on one firearm type at a time, seeking
out and commenting on many of the best web pages available with
information about that firearm.
Each site will be rated for content and presentation using a 1
(needs some help) to 5 (pretty darn slick) bullet rating scheme.
We break down the web page into the following categories:
accessibility (how often the site is available),
graphics (how good are the graphics),
load times (is the page quick to load?),
how free of annoying marketing ads is the site,
how frequently is the data on the site updated,
and if there are useful links to other sites that
can be found here.
We will also include an overall rating for each site.
Since the internet is dynamic and web site addresses change frequently,
the rating information will be kept on this web site; where any required
changes can be regularly updated.
If you run into new (I know about most of the current ones!) firearms-oriented
sites or would like to see a topic covered, let me know, using the contact information below.
