    Awesome pic!!!!
    I had the privilege of shaking that man's hands several times while shooting at the CMPicon Western Games M1icon Garand match!
    The last time I asked him for a hand shake, He said "Hell give me a man hug"

    Shot the western games in 2011 and had hoped to meet him. I don't think he competed that year. Seems like a common sentiment of being a friendly, approachable, and genuine person.

    He was all of the above. A True gentleman. Always looking for a good cigar!
