Ha, I remember that Taxidermy ad. Wanted to send away for the stuff, but Ma wouldn't let me..
Sure would like to have one of those $89.95 336s in .44 mag.

Read that magazine every month when I was a teen along with several others, but OL was my favorite. Jack O'Conner was the shizz!
Later on I started reading Guns & Ammo and Shooting Times solely for Jeff Cooper and Skeeter Skelton's columns. Every..Single..Month...

Wow, this brings back memories. Still have my Dad's old Coleman camp cookstove with the pump-up tank. He used "white gas," and could only get it at certain places (unleaded was rare back then).
Good times.

FWIW, I had probably 100 copies of Field & Stream from the '60s until a few years ago when some "keeper stuff" got too close to the "trash stuff" pile and accidently left the building. 
The prices on the guns are awesome
I remember ads where you could get a genuine (not a replica) cap & ball revolver for less than $10.00. 
I think I have every one of those coleman camping units up in the attic somewhere. The lantern and camp stove came in handy during the ice storm when we had no electric for 9 days. That catalytic heater would kill you though in a tent or enclosed area.
The Game wardens in Ok were riding those Honda Trail 90's in 1980 when I first started deer hunting. One rode by my tree stand. Two speed transmissions. Low and high.
Smithy would sell you plans to build a revolver for a buck on one of their little machining centers.
Stopped subscribing to Outdoor life a couple of years ago. My dad subscribed, and I carried on. It became a infomercial with little information useful to the average hunter. OSA has more good hunting info than Outdoor life does now.
