Posted on September 15, 2000

Xoutdoors.com, an Internet outdoor source, has announced a partnership with the National Rifle Association (NRA). The outdoor forces have entered into a partnership to jointly produce an online version of the magazine, American Hunter. This addition to the Xoutdoors.com site is scheduled to debut in September 2000.

The online version of American Hunter will offer articles on hunting, photography and new gear sections. Additionally, the American Hunter online magazine will offer its members free Internet access and email. Visitors to the American Hunter online magazine will eventually have the capability to register for upcoming events, write their congressmen and respond to articles, current events and other areas of interest to members.

Through this exclusive partnership, Xoutdoors.com will expand its current magazine offerings which currently includes five online magazines. According to Jeff Edwards, President of Xoutdoors.com, ``We are really excited about working with the NRA and American Hunter. Now NRA news and in-depth hunting information is only a few clicks away from millions of sports enthusiasts around the world.''

Joe Graham, Director of Publications at the National Rifle Association, says in the announcement, "By launching the popular magazine American Hunter, on the Internet with the assistance of Xoutdoors.com we are able to merge their expertise in the high tech world of the Internet with our powerful publishing capabilities. Now our current and future members can enjoy NRA news and information instantly with the touch of a button.
