Shooting some clays with the granddaughter.  You might recognize the rifle as “Scout 1”- A .308 Remington 600 with a Leupold M8-2X.  As far as we know, nobody knows where this rifle is today.

Jeff with his first Big Game rifle, A Remington M30S in 30-06 acquired when he was 16.  It was re-stocked and re-furbished, probably in the 60’s.  Here he is using a target sling and conventionally-mounted scope.  He had not yet developed the Scout Rifle and CW Sling concept.

Jeff Cooper and Eric Ching, May 1986, While attending a rifle class at the American Pistol Institute (API, later Gunsite Academy) in Paulden, Arizona, under Jeff Cooper.

Eric Ching (1951–2007) took the rifle class that year, grew frustrated with the limitations of the then-standard CW/military-style shooting sling, and designed the three-point “Ching Sling” as a faster, more practical alternative. Jeff endorsed and adopted it for the scout rifle concept, naming it after him.

Eric was a Gunsite student and later a long-time Rangemaster/instructor.

Random Quote:

“Weapons compound man’s power to achieve; they amplify the capabilities of both the good man and the bad, and to exactly the same degree, having no will of their own. Thus we must regard them as servants, not masters – and good servants to good men. Without them, man is diminished, and his opportunities to fulfill his destiny are lessened. An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.”
