Tom Knapp , world famous "trick-shot" and exhibition shooter has died . Knapp was featured on both the History Channel and Discovery displaying his unique versatility with both rifle and pump shot guns . He was a great showman and a great shooter . The firearms and sport shooting world will sorely miss him .

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

RIP Mr. Knapp.  I remember watching him on a few different History Channel shows. He was amazing with both shotgun and rifle. He could shoot a pump faster than most can shoot a semi-auto.
