| Why Choose The NAM: National Airsoft Magazine?: The NAM: National Airsoft Magazine is a new and innovative way to advertise your business. What we can promise you is a large reader base at a considerably less financial risk in advertising rates than our competition. Additionally, we guarantee your "Full Page" advertising rate is secured at the rate you pay as of your second consistent full page or greater, advertisement in our publication. The rate remains secured so long as you consecutively advertise in the pages of The NAM: National Airsoft Magazine. Why gamble with your money? Unlike the competition who not only "inflates" presale claims, but sells through Borders and other bookstores, we sell DIRECTLY to your target consumer via airsoft distributors, subscriptions, airsoft retailers, associated retailers, our highly visible online website, event sponsorships, several of the large airsoft forums and ebaY. This means your ad doesn't sit inside a magazine, in warehouse waiting to be purchased, or waiting to be special ordered at a bookstore. Instead, it is actually carried by retailers internationally, targeting airsoft players, collectors and enthusiasts directly! While our publication is not color, we compensate with quality content, a heavy page count and unbiased product reviews which our reader, and the industry as a whole, have come to know and trust... something the competition cannot honestly claim. The NAM: National Airsoft Magazine has the benefit of having the LARGEST, OLDEST and MOST ESTABLISHED READER BASE of any current English language airsoft magazine in print circulation today.

Several retailers carry our magazine at their online and walk-in stores. We also have a network throughout the nation and abroad, who attend most of their local games and larger functions to advertise the magazine where the main staff cannot. What we cannot reach through these methods, our website can via the Internet. As far as the publication itself, we offer several enticing columns, detailed “how-to” sections and honest product reviews. Our promise to the readers is a 100% unbiased magazine covering every aspect of the sport that we can fit into each and every issue. Our magazine is published on a consistent “quarterly” basis and, as stated above, is already carried by several retailers worldwide, with many more to come.
