I have been involved with the firearms industry for more than 20 years as a club
president, professional competitor, gunsmith, technical consultant, small arms instructor,
and writer.
I have worked with many different firearms-related companies over the years, including
STI International, Bushnell, Nosler, VihtaVuori, Safariland, RND, Oakley,
Strayer-Voigt
Inc., Dillon Precision, Springfield Armory, C-More, Eagle Arms, and Trijicon.
USPSA needs to bring in new members; return the focus to the competitors, not the
administration; bring fun back to the tournaments; and show the shooting industry and the
public that our exciting sport would welcome them.
I have won a good number of tournaments in my years as a competitor, and I have
certainly lost a great many more. One thing that I am not willing to lose is the sport
that has brought so much pleasure and so many friends into my life.
