    When I was in High School I worked for a sporting goods store. In 1971 I ordered a Mark V Weatherby. I got Christmas cards from Mr. Weatherby for many years. I used my rifle this year to harvest a pretty nice whitetail buck. That's 53 years after I purchased the rifle. It still looks like new.

    A friend was offered a .300 on the FN Mauser action in the 1970's. He called Roy Weatherby to find out more about it. Roy jokingly said "that's a piece of **** I made in my garage". My friend hunted with this rifle for decades and it never let him down.

    I have done a lot of reading over the past 60 years. Mostly by hunters / outdoorsmen from both this continent and Africa. I am not saying it is true, but I have seen where other hunters state that Jack shot a hell of a lot more animals with a typewriter than with a gun.

    Roy made a name for himself and I appreciated his innovative approach, and his guns were no doubt accurate but some of the stocks and the high polish finish, inlays, and gold plating made them gaudy and ugly to my taste. I was employed as a tool maker and machinist. In 1991 I remember the riots is Los Angeles after the Rodney King beating. A number of employees were on the roof of the shop in Southgate well armed with new rifles and lots of ammo. I recall one person I worked with was up there with a .460 Weatherby Magnum ready to take on anyone coming down the street that may of been a threat. We did not see any Cape Buffalo or armored cars that day and the rioters were at least a few blocks away. We joked about that for years. I had a 375 Weatherby and several boxes of ammo. Several of us slept on the roof in shifts for nearly a week. I remained with Weatherby until the hostilities of the Newsome regime and all the draconian laws coming down from Sacramento. I retired and moved to Nevada and the company was invited and subsequently moved to Wyoming where they were welcomed with open arms.

    • @diggingoonschmit
      @diggingoonschmit Годину тому

      Ok, there is a lot to unpack here. I worked for Weatherby’s as a factory gunsmith, quality control, R &D, and eventually the shop supervisor in Southgate and eventually the Atascadero, CA location. From 1983 to 1996. During the Rodney King riots of 1992 I was the shop supervisor and on site quality control. When we could see buildings starting to burn within about 1 1/2 miles from the store/factory, Ed Weatherby ordered all employees to go home until further notice. Me and 2 or 3 other shop employees assisted the store staff in pulling a number of the more expensive firearms from the store racks and stored them down in the under ground range and test fire room. That occurred in the early afternoon. Myself and 3 other shop employees volunteered to stay the night and watch the vulnerable store front which did have fairly heavy bars just inside the front showroom windows and across the entry door. Large brick planters were in front of those windows so driving a car through would not be possible. Ed Weatherby allowed us to arm ourselves with some pump shotguns from the store racks. We left the lights on so as to be very visible to anyone outside as it got darker. We did not go on the roof. No one carried a 460 or any Weatherby rifles. We stayed in the store. Later in the evening, a unit of the National Guard, about a dozen of them parked their vehicles in our parking lot. I met with the one in charge and he said he was sent because rioters were breaking into sporting goods stores and gunshops stealing firearms and they were to station at Weatherby’s. Ed gave permission to give them access to the roof. A little after midnight, a small car drive by and fired a shot towards the soldiers on the roof and threw a cheap .380 pistol from the car next to a dumpster by the restaurant next door. The soldiers did not return fire as the car drove off. It wasn’t long after that, Ed called us and told us to go home and that are safety was more important than protecting the building. So we left with the National Guard still on the roof. I had to lock the one access door to the roof and was worried the soldiers would not be able to get down. The soldier in charge laughed saying they would have no problem. I can’t remember how many days we stayed closed, but things calmed down, the store and shop were not damaged in any way and things went back to normal pretty quickly. I don’t know who you are “Ric”, but none of us were on the roof or slept on the roof. I know that Victor, Rod, perhaps someone else (maybe you) whom I can’t remember, and myself were there and stayed in the store. And I do not recall anyone hired as a “tool maker/machinist at that time. Only gunsmiths and stock makers were in the back shop. Care to refresh my memory as to where exactly you worked? All we had was the MkV room, the Shotgun room, the stock department, the tool crib, attended by 3 retired postal workers, the shipping department, the gunsmiths bench for non Weatherby firearms coming through the store, and the engineers office. Were you in the engineer’s office? You used to work for Cushman? Remind me, I’m curious.

    I met him in 1980 at the NRA annual meetings in Kansas City. Apparently he had just arrived. We both locked eyes at the same time from a few feet away. I approached him, we shook hands, and exchanged pleasantries for a few seconds. He was wanting to know where the Pachmayr exhibit was I gave him directions and he headed that way. He was quickly inundated with fans. A while after that Bill Jordan showed up, but I didn’t get to speak with him. Keith reminded me of Pappy Boyington who I also met in person about 3 years earlier. Both of those legendary men were a little short, but they had a lot of hard bark about them. I feel fortunate and honored to have met them both.
