TOM SIATOS (1923-2008) spent the majority of his life in close association with firearms and hunting. His professional contributions, tremendous category knowledge, bottomless enthusiasm and bold personality influenced the firearm industry and outdoor media to such a degree that it remains a viable force today. Tom was the second editor of Guns & Ammo Magazine. As such, he was responsible for the general tone of this iconic publication. A consumate hunter, spectacular all-around shot and true connoisseur of fine firearms, his interests spanned the full spectum of the shooting sports. In 1942, Tom enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. He served in units that scouted and destroyed isolated enemy communication sites on a number of Pacific islands, eventually receiving a battlefield commission. After concluding his service, Tom attended UCLA and then joined the fledgling Petersen's Publishing Company in 1958. A series of promotions led him to become vice president of Petersen's Publishing Outdoor Division which thrived under his leadership. Tom was a mentor, visionary, leader, father figure and a true original. We will never see his like again. A number of other fine firearms from the Siatos estate are offered concurrently. The price is firm and layaway is available. $2,500 plus shipping.
