In April 1981, ESQUIRE MAGAZINE published an anti-gun article entitled, “Fifty Million Handguns.”
A few months later, a fellow by the name of Chip Elliot wrote a response. It so impressed the editors that it was published in the September 1981 issue as the cover story.
Mr. Elliot’s comments are just as relevant to the gun issue as they were the day they were written — and his effervescent authenticity was deeply appreciated by the magazine's gun owning readers.
I lost no time years ago filing the article and losing it! Years later I searched for it on the Internet but couldn't locate it. But about two years after that I found it in a box. Scanning it, I created a Word Document and then a PDF. I released it on several gun bulletin boards (which is what we called them back then) and every few years I re-release it because it's such a good read.
Check it out and send it to your friends. Hope you enjoy it!
