His performance in FMJ has to be one of the best improvised movie performances of all time.
RIP Gunny

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Beside his moves he was a regular on the shooting episodes on the outdoor channel. Always fun to watch. Even withoutb a "reach a round".

What a loss, always left me with a smile on my face.

A man's man and a great American Patriot. Definitely lost a good one. Godspeed Gunny.

Had the pleasure of meeting the Gunny at the National Gun Day show in Louisville a few years ago where he was sitting at a table with his grandsons signing autographs, he asked me what I wanted written on my autographed photo and I said "Get the f___ off my obstacle"which was one of his catch phrases commonly used around my workplace. He looked at me with a WTF is that about gaze and then one of his grandsons leaned into his ear and said "Grandpa, Full Metal Jacket" he chuckled and modified the phrase to Get off my obstacle" A real gentleman! RIP
