Tom Knapp Passes

[MO-APE]

Sad day yesterday, two legends left us. First, George Jones then expert trick shooter, Tom Knapp. Tom shot for Benelli and CZ-USA at expos for many years. He also starred in numerous shooting TV shows like Sharpshooters on the History Channel. RIP Gents!

What a shame about Tom Knapp. A great shooter for sure.

I hope all sponsors he had put together a nice memorial video of Tom and his abilities, hunts, and advice. Surely a book will be written.

Sad time in history for the shooting sports.

From what I heard Benelli treated him horrible when he had to take his first medical leave...cancelled his contract and left him hanging in the wind. You're right, I hope they honor him in some way!

Got to meet Tom Knapp and chat with him a while at the SHOT show in Vegas years back. Started out to just get his autographed picture but since no one was behind us in line we talked for quite a while. What a great guy - definitely left a positive impression on me. He will be missed.
