i think he was still in air gun mags in the 90's. his articles was the best on hunting in the airgun mags read them a lot . Only just read about him passing by watching youtube vids and the comments, shame!! R.I.P John Darling
I've had a nasty accident doing that. I had a really old gun that didnt have a safety. my fingers were near the hinge where it closes up. I squeezed the trigger by accident and almost slashed my fingers off lol.
Thanks for sharing these vids. They're amazing! Too bad this man passed away :/ Rest in peace.
Seems like a very approachable down to earth kind of guy who will be sorely missed by all who knew him...His videos/dvds on airgunning are first rate...R.I.P. fella...
JD knew his craft. He was one of the leading talents in air rifle hunting and a great teacher to many including me. R.I.P bud your talent is sorely missed.
well he looks like he knows his stuff pretty well. kinda looks like the "Einstein of airgunning." (referring to his hair, lol)
man this video would be perfect for a new airgun hunter. kinda sad though that many of the brands mentioned would probably never be heard by the American airgunner.

Sad to hear recently of his passing, spent many years as a teenager reading his monthly articles in the late 80's

It's British army DMP camouflage
this guy is probably an old soldier. he's quoting a few weapon safety handling rules and then theres his choice of camouflage
