Jim was the kindest, most real man. So knowledgeable, so gentle, so tough.

Make that 10/4/24. I'm pretty sure that I posted about that back then. I know that I notified LFGC where both of us were/are members.

Jim was a long-time friend. A really great guy and instructor. He helped me a number of times over the years . . . modifying my 1911, hooking me up with a good HVAC company, training opportunities, etc. Jim will be greatly missed! May he rest in peace.

Obituary says September? Either way, original post edited - thank you.

I did a search for his name and didn't see anything death related.

Godspeed. Took a couple of classes from him back in the day. A true gentleman.

I'll never forget how he made me qualify on a Q target while standing on one foot, because FrugalFanny had asked to see my shoe and I didn't want to stand on hot gravel in just a sock.

I shot a class with him a good while back. Nicest guy you’d ever meet. RIP

that’s too bad. I trained with Jim and his partner (but 95% Jim) through a few courses up at Pelham. We bonded over glocks and NES, believe it or not. We kept in touch for a bit. He was extremely knowledgeable.
I’ll never ever forget the smell of the smoke from his pipe.

HTF is it only nice people get cancer? I have seen family members and friends get it.

Sorry to hear about this. I don't think I've ever met him. Did he attend some Monadnock shoots back in the day?

R.I.P. Jim.

I knew Jim pretty well. He never attended any NES events, he was strictly an online presence here, mostly with training info.

I also trained a bit with Jim. Strange seeing this as I was just suggesting training to a buddy last night. I was telling him about the course I had with Jim. That was over a decade ago and I still recall the course vividly and practice the skills he taught every time at the range. This is to say he was a great teacher/mentor cuz I forget what I had for dinner last night.
R.I.P Jim. You helped so many.
