ANOKA, MN - Feb. 10, 2014 - The shooting sports lost a tremendous ambassador, teacher and friend in 2013, with the passing of exhibition shooter Tom Knapp. His combination of shooting skills and stage presence inspired an entire generation of new shooters.

For more than a decade, Knapp represented these brands around the world at live exhibitions, on television and at countless consumer and trade shows.
