I got a APG subscription for Christmas and I still haven't recieved an issue yet.

Well just today i called them up and they said the first issue I'll recieve is the May issue, and that i'll recieve that in mid-March.

Seems kind of strange since the subscription was ordered on Dec. 15th. :confused: :confused:



Anyone have recommendations on magazines to look into? I was actually thinking of writing articles for APG, since it seems i have better things to say than most of the junk they put in there (i wonder how much you get paid)

i love pgi(paintball games international)
if u play tourny's its for you

i have a few friends that work at the place that prints
apg so i have the april already and i have to tell ya things dont change much in there products that have been out for several months in there and the thing that pisses me of the most is that they constantly bash tourney players

PB2X ( paintball 2 extremes) Is awesome for tourny coverage and has lots of little pictures
Crossfire - Is ok, allot of ad's and not great article but its not terrible
APG - Ive had a cubscription fora while now and I wont renew it next year, It's way to Beginer and Rec for me, Its like 200 pages of Spyder reviews and The worst article I have ever seen(in the latest issue) "Tips for the Newbie Sniper",::shakes head::
Facefull GREAT photos, good info, bi-monthly
Paintball Sports I think thats what its called, It pretty bad

Theres alot more butthoose are the main ones
PS: APG takes along time to start the subscribtion so dont worry

lol, thats it "I sugest a 14 inch barrel, aftermarket bolt that fits well, and a sight...A stock is a good idea..Full camo" And then it says not to buy 2x trigger or a revvy, Pretty much this is a step backward in paintball, Thanks APG!!!

it's the only one i've ever read thats why im askin ya guys for opinions :)

I know its got some terrible articles, sometimes my eyes get teary because they are so dumb.

I have not every played in a tourny, if i ever get $$ i will. But I'm looking for a good overall mag covering the latest in paintball equip/games/stories/tournies.
