Did you meet David W. Arnold then? He was on that team, I think, for Rhodesia. (He was South African by birth.)

I met him after he moved his family to the USA and edited Petersen's Handguns. I still have some wooden animal carvings that he sent me from Rhodesia.


Did you know Gavin Carson? Also a Rhodesian IPSC shooter.

The big American may have been Jeff Cooper, if not Jordan.
(David was a big man, too, but not American.)
