I recently was given EVERY issue of Soldier of Fortune magazine in scans by my brother, and I noticed the ads and article shots all make amazing avatars and I wanted to share them with the world

So a bunch of misinformation and questionable ads? Sounds funny!


The shitty part is some of the information was really, really good. The two actual journalists they had were excellent and did some great pieces about third world hot spots, and even a few of their gun reviewers were really well informed. But the crazy shit was so over the top that you would HAVE to focus on that

Huh, interesting. So you win no matter what you read. You just need to find out which ones are real.

The ads look like parodies of right-wingers, honestly. Poe’s Law is strong here!

Does your brother frequent /k/ by any chance? I remember seeing a ton of issues get dumped there about a week back.

It’s weird — on the one hand you’ve got ads for proto-mall ninja crap, and on the other there’s stuff like A.G. Russell knives and Springfield M1As right next to the junk.

IIRC my first step dad had some of these. I looked at them and realized how exceptional they were when I was still in single digits.

The Classified section in any 60s-80s magazine is the best. This is especially true for Soldier of Fortune, because this was back when military culture was losing it's fucking mind from failing in 'Nam and you saw a lot of grown men that acted like they were anime protagonists. I annotated this page for the lazy.

The funniest part is these guys were getting calls. Mostly from the Rhodesians but occasionally from people trying to have their ex murdered or Latin American criminals who wanted their cousins trained in basic shooting and security
