RIP in piece fella.
For those of you who have visited the "Have a go" airgun ranges at the CLA and Midland gamefairs, amongst many others that he has attended i'm sorry to have to bring you the sad news that Alan Jones, AKA AJ! as most of us knew him has passed away this morning. I did get to see him and the rest of his crew at the CLA earlier in the year but was too unwell myself to make the Midland. God bless you Alan, we will miss you.
"There is only one god and his name is death... and what do we say to him? Not today"
RIP in piece fella.

We've just lost a true one-off.
May you rest in peace, my friend, and I know you'll keep the angels entertained forever with your stories.
A sad, sad day for all who knew him.
If you don't know enough to judge - don't judge
A legend to safe, fun air gunning.
Sadly missed from a southerner who joined the road crew at AJ's Emporium 12yrs ago.
May you jibber-jabber up in heaven Alan.
Shalahoo
Never had the pleasure of meeting Alan, but always a sad day when one of the good guys passes away.
RIP.

That's really shocking and very sad!
I said good morning to AJ on Saturday morning at the Midland, it just goes to show that we don't know what's round the corner for any of us.
I was too far away to here him call "good morning world, it's a brand new day" first thing in the morning.
May he rest in peace and my thoughts are with his family and friends.
Not camp, Gary just wishes I were!
That's quite weird ...
I've just a minute ago been reading an old Airgun magazine from the 90's and I was reading a piece where there was a picture of AJ and one of his targets. I thought I'd have half an hour on the BBS and this is the first thread I've opened.
Sad news.
Very sad news.
RIP
AJ
