The legend is probably Hollywood urban legend stuff, but Connors' bio is interesting anyway. Played pro baseball and basketball, where he was the first to break a glass backboard. The Rifleman was one of few American TV shows run the the Soviet Union. More here:

Guns? What guns? Oh, I haven't seen those since I left my garage door open one night by mistake.

I agree Bowserb, he was a hell of a man. Thanks for the link.
Just thought of 5 more,
James Hynemem
Adam Savage
Grant Imohara
Tory Belachi
Kari Byron
AKA The Mythbusters. In a behind the scenes episode Kari was asked about her feelings regarding guns. She said that she had no interest in shooting until she she started at M5. Since working there, she is addicted to it, and looks forward to the next gun related myth. Big change for a So Cal Vegitarian.

Yeah... and I was sad to see Shania Twain top the anti list too... Maybe she (& Jennifer) need to find a down to Earth fella to take them out to the range and help them with their stances and forms... I'LL VOLUNTEER !!!!!

I wonder if the Jewish anti gun celebs realize that mindset is what put their grandparents in the concentration camps in the 40's. I would think the Jewish of all people would support personal gun ownership. Funny how some money and notoriety can make certain people forget.

When and where can we meet with you father in-law. Some one needs to ask this question. And this BS of shutting people up who disagree with you won't work here. I would only accept cash from you no checks please.
