When is Mr Jurras going to start his own series of picture threads? I suspect he's been around the block, thrown some lead himself!
Few more of these threads and we'll have enough for a book!

Don D.... reckon around 1980-'81----not long before the Redhawk entered the pipeline.
seancass... Lee Jurras was an instigator, of important developments, and bringing serious shooters together.
cmh and Fowler.... as important as the marksmanship represented, occurs to me that persons in this group ere every bit as serious about stimulating others to stretch their own ability.

David Bradshaw David that is what makes a group like this work, sitting around a bunch of blowhards who tout their own ability and tear down everyone else isn't any fun. Oh to be there and sit around with something cold to drink and just listen to learn |

True words Folwer!
That's why I like to encourage(bother?)some more experienced members to post. It's literally a chance to sit around(at your computer) with something cold to drink and read the words of some of the best that have ever lived!
