I haven't seen it posted on here yet, but I got a call earlier tonight from a friend of mine in the industry and he told me Jason passed away this morning.

There are plenty of rumors as to what has happened, I am sure the cause will be confirmed soon, but he was on a sheep hunt.
 
Very sad news! I am shocked, spent a fun evening out with him and friends last year at SCI, he was my age, fit and healthy.... My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Very sad news. I saw a tv show that told the story of his company and how he started it.
 
From his instagram page i believe he was on a caribou hunt, not sure how things went south there?
 
Damn. That is sad news. R.I.P. Jason
 
How sad for someone so young and the industry as a whole.
 
This is truly tragic. Way too young. Thoughts and prayers are with his family.
 
Shocking! I young, fit guy with a young, beautiful family.
 
Way too young. I was moved by his recent story of taking a huge and elusive sheep with his young son. So sorry for his family and friends.
 
Terrible news! R.I.P.
 
This is just tragic. I have always been very impressed by his initiative and courage to do what he did - in business and life! An inspiration to others I am sure.
 
Heartbreaking news! My deepest and most sincere condolences to Jason's family. May you rest in peace Jason, and enjoy the green fields of heaven.
 
We never know when our time on earth is done. It is really too bad when it happens way too soon. RIP.
Bruce
 
Prayers....
 
Sorry to hear the sad news. Best wishes to his family.
 
Prayers for peace and comfort in the coming days and weeks for his family!

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
