Our Friends in the Philippines Accepting Their “Cooper Shelf” Gift from the JCLF

Our Friends in the Philippines Accepting Their “Cooper Shelf” Gift from the JCLF

November 13, 2026 Lindy Comments 0 Comment

The Foundation recently sent a collection of Jeff Cooper’s books to the Carobcob Shooting Group. Here is José’s letter of thanks to Lindy:

The Carobcob Shooting Group accepting their “Cooper Shelf” gift from the JCLF.

Estimada Lindy,

The opening of the package of Jefe’s books that you so kindly gave to our shooting group was done yesterday October 31, 2026 here at my family’s rest home and gun range which is also the ipso facto locum of our Carobcob Shooting Group, much like Jefe’s sconce and Gunsite.

The book collection will remain housed as the Jeff Cooper Legacy Library here in the ipso facto locum of our shooting group where it can be read by our membership. Of the keepsakes of the Jeff Cooper Legacy Foundation that you sent, the Legacy patch was awarded to the top shootist of yesterday’s shoot. The Legacy lapel pin will be held in reserve to be awarded in the future to a shootist of the group on a fitting and appropriate occasion. It was also the consensus of the group that the Legacy medallion will be mounted in plastic and remain with the library, recognising the origin of the book collection as coming from the daughter of Jefe, “THE GURU” not only of the shootists of our group, but also of other shootists, as well.

An accolade of THANK YOU(S) for this gift, Lindy

para nuestro grupo,

José

Random Quote:

“One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that ‘violence begets violence.’ I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure — and in some cases I have — that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.”
