The fifth issue of Lowrys Guidon came out in mid-1973, after the business was well-established in Maine, but before the depth of the financial crisis it had started had become obvious.

The second issue of Lowrys Guidon came out in April 1972, alongside the 1972 Discount Catalog and shortly after Don Lowry had acquired Panzerfaust from Don Greenwood. It expanded to 20 pages, and had a few more articles than the first issue, but otherwise kept the same format.
