Jeff Cooper and his first #porsche

#TheGuru on perhaps the first “Tricycle” at #Gunsite?

Our latest scholarship recipients at Gunsite, May 29, 2026. Carlos Roman (E ticket), Anna Componovo (second in the shootoff), Lindy, Trevor Coningham (won the shootoff), and Chris Rabago. Outstanding!

It was a great Cooper Class this last week at #gunsite! Our scholarship recipient, Daniel Pinet, is a deputy sheriff from Kentucky. He received an E ticket! Nice job Daniel!

During the Korean War Jeff became involved with the training of Nationalist Chinese irregulars, some of whom were rather small and a bit intimidated at the thought of using a 45-caliber machine pistol. Here he demonstrates that two M-3 “Grease-Guns” can be managed quite easily at once — with fair effectiveness at short range. (Some may note that at that time Jeff had not yet promulgated Rule III.) #greasegun

Happy 106th Birthday Colonel Cooper! With every year that passes we miss you more and more!

Can you identify these 5 of 6 original Combat Masters? Which one is missing? #legends

We had Ai restore this photo of The Colonel. What do you think? Ya or Nah? Regardless, that’s a nice big Buck! #grok
