My New Toy...JOC Tribute
« on: March 21, 2013, 12:48:19 PM »
Finally arrived at my FFL and I picked it up today.  One of 410 of a Limited Edition Jack O'Connor Tribute rifle in of course .270 Winchester.  This thing just feels so right...one sweet rifle. 

Here's some pictures.  Damn flash, I could not eliminate the reflection.  Oh well...much prettier without the distortion, but you get the idea.

Beautiful rifle.

Somewhere I had pictures of some of his rifles from the museum in his honor on Lewiston, Idaho. Very cool place if you're ever in the area. It's at Hell's Gate park along the river in town.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Drool!  I got to handle a Biesen replica of JOCs #2 rifle.  It just felt like it had a nose for game.

That's a beauty for sure...

First scratch is going to be a little tougher to take with this rifle.

Safe queen or a hunter?
