Our LIBRARY. had some of their books.

The one and only expensive sniping book of theirs I bought had some truly fascinating history items in it...stuff I've never seen elsewhere. Lots of math, some out of date fears and focuses, but by far one of the most technically educational and enlightening long range shooting manuals I've ever seen.

I ordered a copy of the Turner diaries from them after the okc bombing just to see what everyone was all up in arms over....it could have been a decent read if it weren't for all the racist bullshit. I figured that got me on a list of some sort at the ripe age of like 14 lol

Always read their catalogs when I was a kid, after my older brother got them.
A couple of reasonably recent and useful books, for less than I could get them on Amazon Prime: Long Range Shooting Handbook by Ryan M. Cleckner 
The Ultimate Sniper by Maj. John L. Plaster

Anyway, I corresponded with Senich when I was still in San Francisco and got some book labels autographed by him. I wish he were still around as I've got a question no one seems to know the answer for. I've even written the National Firearms Museum and they couldn't answer it.

Ordered some cheap books to say goodbye...
Shit, growing up in bum-fuck West Texas right before the Internet was a thing, Paladin Press got at least $200 bucks (We're talking pre-teen dollars man) out of me back in the late 80s and early 90s. I only got the Loompanics catalog once because I think it was $5.00 at the time. All I really remember from it was a short story about two dudes who worked the execution wing at a women's prison and them going to town on a warm body fresh from the electric chair. Another popular favorite was High Weirdness By Mail from The Church of the SubGenius. I can't remember how many self addressed stamped envelopes I sent out to various crackpots and weirdos.
