James Burton

James Burton is a writer and shooter, immersed in gun culture since before he could walk. His earliest memories were smells of musty military surplus stores, his father’s vast collection of H&K rifles and stacks of Soldier of Fortune magazine. Throughout his impressionable youth, family vacations were wandering the grounds twice a year at the Knob Creek County Machine Gun Shoot. Today, James' other passions include coral reef keeping, Japanese pro wrestling, .300 AAC Blackout, and fondling firearms and optics as they travel in and out of his family’s small, Class III NFA Weapons-based firearms business.
