My wife and I were featured. Britt and Rod. I don't here post much but I lurk and read through the archives quite a bit. At first I was hesitant when approached about doing the article. Too often the media puts their spin on things to satisfy their agenda, especially on the topic of guns. My wife is a former journalist and knows the writer of this article from school. I figured I'd take the risk just to put out a different perspective about firearm owners. I'm glad the feedback has been positive so far. The writer left out a bunch but I'm glad there wasn't anything that would negatively impact our community.

Is there a link to the article or anything online?

great job, RZilla
the article showed all of the gun owners in a pretty good light
not the usual slanted MSM junk we normally see

From what I could see, it's a subscription only article: http://www.honolulumagazine.com/Honolulu-Magazine/July-2014/July-2014-Table-of-Contents/

I sent the article link to some gun owner friends (out of state) and they said great stuff and they are sharing it with their reluctant spouses, friends, etc.

Great to see this coming out of HI

Great article. We need to be represented in mainstream media more as we actually are. The poster child for gun owners should not be the mass murdering psychos who are more the exception than the rule.

In my personal experience, most gun owners I know are accomplished and often times the most hard working and productive people of society... Physicians, dentists, soldiers, firemen, police officers, medics, nurses, business owners, construction workers, accountants, professors, video producers, tech people, etc.  Wow ... people who actually produce something useful, successful, attractive and pay their dues to society daily.

if you check out Colion Noir's new show, he is taking it a bit further by showing that firearm ownership can go from fringe to mainstream.  It's interesting.  Colion isn't exactly Dana White but it's kinda like how UFC went from something banned to mainstream culture.

Mahalo for posting the Honolulu Magazine link.  Good stuff for sure.
