Three Members Get Published

I just received my December SIXGUNNER (published by Mr. JD Jones re: Handgun Hunters International and SSK Industries) and was pleasantly surprised to see that three of our members have stories published.

GlennS landed the front page with his story on his Bison, and JamesFromJersey made page 3 with his Muley Buck.

Last but not least, WVHitman commanded a full three pages updating us on his groundhog kill status to...more than 12,000 lifetime kills...!!!

There were of course stories by others but if they were from members here I did not recognize them by their byline.

I got my issue on Monday

Well, congrat's to all!

Handgun hunters are some of the best hunters in the world! handgunhunt.com is blessed to have some great handgun hunters as contributing members! congrats guys!

That's cool. I saw it last night when I got back in town.

Agreed

Very cool! Congrats guys!

Credit where credit is due,these guys walk the walk,very accomplished handgun hunting ICONS.

That's awesome!

Good work by all 3, as usual.

This is impressive and congratulations on being published. I have been a member of several different forums ranging from the local general forum to national bow hunting and predator hunting forums. Never have I been a part of a more respectable, responsible and well versed group of hunters and shooters than now.

As an 18-year game warden it is refreshing to read posts that don't refer to the expletive-deleted "Mr. Green Jeans" and other such postings. Congratulations again on your publishing.

Huge congrats fellers!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting Greg. HHI is a dying organization, unfortunately. Not many members write and a lot never rejoin. Our publication, The Sixgunner is a wealth of information. I have every one since inception of Oct. 1978 and frequently refer back to them for hunting and loading information.
Those of you that are members, please try to get others to join. Nonmembers-please join. It's cheap, informative, and unique. We are living with a handgun legend, JD Jones. Keep in contact with him through this. He won't be here forever. Many times he's questioned the worth of keeping HHI going. We need to keep HHI going.

You are welcome, Doc.

I agree, and plan on sending a few stories in soon. I know I have been lax lately...

BTW, I have about the same collection as I joined in 1978 and saved every one.

HHI

The unusual/weird thing about my collection is that those flimsy little papers survived my house fire in 2002 where I lost everything I had except them and our family bible, including 65 guns and massive loading supplies. Go, figure!

Mine arrived yesterday - i renewed again this year for another 3 years!

I need to send JD some articles - some would look very similar to posts on this very site

Way to go guys. I have tried several emails to contact to join with no luck.

I just read The Sixgunner articles. Great hunts guys. Congratulations.

I agree with Doc and Gregg. HHI is an awesome organization. J D Jones is a true pioneer and ballistics innovator. Much of the high performance handgun stuff we take for granted he pioneered back in the 70s and 80s. His JDJ line of cartridges brought big game hunting with handguns a long way. J D, Lee Jurras and Larry Kelly really brought handgun hunting into the public eye. You should join HHI today!

Gregg, Thank you so much for your good words... I agree 100% with Doc about HHI. If not a member you should join. Its the best $25 a year you can spend as a handgun hunter. If you are a member, JD needs YOUR articles and pictures about your handgun hunts... Does not matter if you shoot a ground hog or hogzilla.
God bless and good hunting.....

awesome job guys!!

Thanks for the information on HHI...I learn something valuable every time I come to this forum.

I read the whole thing..cover to cover and it inspired me to call JD and order a new Encore barrel for Stalking in the black timer of Colorado next year. a 12" 416 Rigby with a big ( I mean BIG) fish-gill muzzle brake and a 3-ring TSOB on top should do the trick.

That fishgill brake works well. I have it on my 50 Alaskan.
