Jack Warne - founder and CEO of Sporting Arms Ltd of Adelaide South Australia - filmed in 2005 at his Oregon home. Audio is poor for the first 15 minutes
Thanks for posting this. I grew up in Adelaide and as a teenager used to drive past the Clovelly Park factory because my Dad worked nearby and as I gun nut even then used to dream about what they were producing. I recently bought a Sportco M44 .308 target rifle so I finally have one.
Nice work.. But its curious why he didn't just find a gunsmith and barrel maker in Europe, after the war such people were easy to source.. Many American firm did this after ww1 and ww2
Thank you for making the sportco Hornet and the model 44
Appreciate you posting this interview. The Sportco/Omark story is an interesting one.
