And yeah, I know it's warranted.

Yeah, I got carried away and went too far. This is neither the time nor the place.

I'd always laugh at some of our idiots in the Brit Bash threads because Bradders was doing more for American shooting than most of them.

Awww, hell.

I've shot with him and some of his mates before. Super nice guys.

RIP, Bradders.

Got a message yesterday.

Sad news. He was a big character on the practical shooting scene and a powerful driving force behind it.

He will be missed.

RIP Mark.
