I met him years ago the last time Shot Show was in Orlando. Seemed like a great guy...

I believe he did some Brownell's maintenance vids. Some of the best out there. Still today.

Of all the people I saw and met at Shot Show throughout the years, He, along with Gunny were the two that I was sort of star struck by. Probably because his show was the first gun related show I ever saw and I was a kid that loved guns. In my brief interactions with him, he was a nice guy. Truly one of the good guys.

Thankfully, his son's doing a great job filling his shoes on Shooting USA.

You could tell Jim loved what he did.




Phone's ringing, Dude.

I was looking for some of the very early episodes of Shooting USA but 2004 is the oldest I could find. Brings back memories.

Including the one and only Bruce Gray Smile

Very sad to hear of his passing.
I always enjoyed the show and his presentation style.

May he Rest In Peace.
