 I would love to say jdj had this made but I can`t so I will say that this was made with my HHI patch and ID card and a facsimile of a Colt Python that I used on my first handgun hunt so long ago...HHI was the best....

I LOVED HHI, I LOVED THE ANNUAL YO HANDGUN HUNT, AND I AM GLAD I FOUND THIS THIS SITE.

Many, many fond memories of HHI. Think I wrote over 100 stories for it. I really miss it, but I at least keep in constant contact with JD. Great guy and friend.

I was able to have many lifelong friendships through HHI with many who have also posted in this thread, and with others around the country. Thanks, JD.

Very nice plaque James. HHI was the best in its class for decades. Can?t say enough great things about HHI, SSK Industries and the man behind it - JDJones.
HHI and The Sixgunner publication is what really got me going. The member articles really described and literally defined what is possible when handgunning for game. Contributors like Dr Larry Rogers - aka. wvhitman trained up a whole generation of handgun hunters and showed the world that ANY game animal is a legitimate quarry for the properly prepared handgunner. I am still very proud to be a charter member.
