You have selected the One of the Blokes membership level.
Do you feel you are getting more than 10c of value from our sites a day?
Then maybe you would consider supporting the sites directly. You get extra content, downloads and ultimately, help keep us going. The business model for the site leans heavily towards reader support, instead of 'money for reviews' - which is the traditional model of magazines. This tends to tilt the information you get from them in the favour of the advertiser and often reduces reviews to a rewritten press release. We do have business partnerships, but they are initiated from my end - the product I want to use, and work to get a good deal on. I spend the money and make the mistakes, so you don't have to.
The Bloke and Precision Shooter were set up to provide information and impartial review of new products. As well as provide a bit of entertainment to modern Blokes (and the ladies, of course).
"Sweet, thanks mate. Best money i spend a month, well worth it and already taking a lot from your content and putting it to use behind the rifle and general gun-based life! - Jason"
You will gain full access to The Bloke, Precision Shooter, and other projects planned.
Membership is $15 per quarter - that's only $5 per month for access to all the articles on this site.
Many thanks for the support. It's truly appreciated.
