A story of the kind of people you find at Weatherby, and, from my experience, throughout the shooting industry. You probably remember the tragic death of American sniper and Navy SEAL, Chris Kyle. He was shot and killed on a gun range last February. Chris had been selected to represent Weatherby on the Weatherby shooting team, and they were building him a competition gun based on the Mark V Accumark. When tragedy struck, everyone at Weatherby wanted to do something to help Chris\u2019s wife, Taya, and their children manage financially. An idea was proposed to build a limited run of Chris\u2019s gun and auction them off with all of the proceeds going to Taya. It only took 48 hours to auction 26 rifles at $3,400 each. Mike Schweibert didn\u2019t want to talk about it in the video because he felt it would do a disservice to Chris\u2019s memory for Weatherby to benefit from what they did for Taya and the kids. That\u2019s not why they did it. We asked him to let us bring it up in the video because we thought it was a story that should be heard throughout the industry, so he agreed to answer Julie\u2019s questions on camera. With all the demonizing of guns we get from the media, it\u2019s nice to hear something real. It makes you proud to be a part of an industry with such caring and generous people.<\/p>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/weatherby05.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\"
