Are Gun Magazines Okay?

    Ah, you just got the phone call. Elder Prickle was in the area and thought he'd drop by with the missus and say hello. You do some last minute readying but on one of the tables is your latest issue of Guns & Ammo or The American Rifleman. Sadly, you don't notice it until you see Elder Prickle move the latest Watchtower aside and eye it over the rims of his glasses. He makes some small talk, but it's too late. The cover of the magazine, sporting the latest plastic .40 Springfield pistol, is now in plain sight.

    Elder Prickle is originally from Chicago, where guns are tightly regulated.

    Question: Is he likely to make anything of it? And if so, is he likely to bring it up then or later, when he can chat with you on his own turf? Or will he just discreetly ignore his own predilections?

    I know some of you have said that elders differ in their counsel regarding firearms, but this is your own home where he's a guest.

    Or does that matter?

    What if he spotted a religious tract someone gave you at work...something with "Are YOU Saved?" plastered all over it in flames.

    Thanks!

    When I was a JW, I never talked about my interest in shooting and handloading. I knew that it was a topic that had no upside with JWs.
