I surely enjoyed Jeff's teachings, back in the 70's & 80's.

I miss his teachings. I carried a 1911 because of him until he sold me on the CZ75. I paid two months salary to get one because they couldnt be imported from the Evil Empire back then. I built a scout rifle because of him and I still read his thoughts over to remember the wisdom.

I regret that I never made it to Gunsite when he was still teaching.

G'Day Fella's,

Thganks for sharing Ripp.

Words of Wisdom, from The Man himself!

Given the present situation in the US, we might see some of these words, soon become acts.
We can only imagine, how the MSM will report about any of these acts, but rest assured, it will in no way represent the Truth of what occures.

Double D'oh!!

Until some one smokes the rocket bloke with a bigger rocket or a rifle. Snipers can be bastards of things.
