George Flynn NRA
Instructor & Actor / Filmmaker
George Flynn held multiple NRA Instructor Certificates
and was also listed as a Concealed Carry Permit
Instructor with the State of Wyoming and Florida.
For over 40 years, Mr. Flynn has been both professionally
and personally involved in the Shooting Sports.
He’s been an avid competitive shooter in disciplines
such as Combat Pistol, ICORE, Cowboy Action,
Skeet, as well as other sports.
He also enjoyed hunting, collecting, and writing
on firearms & related topics. He had published
and/or produced several books & videos on Firearms,
Shooter Training, Concealed Carry and African Safari.
His book & video “Guns for Women”
(released in 1988) reached and helped
thousands of people, and also changed the minds
and positions of many individuals who were not previously
supportive of firearm ownership. It's important
to note that the Book & Video were the direct
inspiration for the President of Smith & Wesson
to reintroduce the “Lady Smith” line of handguns.
“Guns for Women” was a natural outgrowth of
his excellent reputation for helping new shooters
buy their first firearm and begin to enjoy the shooting
sports.
He served on the Board of Directors of the
Weld
County Fish & Wildlife Association and
was currently serving on the Board of the Colorado
Friends of the NRA.
George was an award winning Actor, Writer
& Director as well as the host of the "Words
of Freedom" Radio Show.
In
recent years, he’s served as Screenwriter
and Co-Producer on the Motion Picture "Set Apart" starring
Richard
Roundtree, (Shaft
& Speed Racer) John Schneider, (Dukes of Hazzard & Smallville) and
Jennifer O'Neill, (Rio Lobo &
Summer of ‘42).
He
was also one of the Producers on “Tengu:
The Immortal Blade”, a Sci-Fi/Action Motion
Picture, starring James Lew,
(Kung Fu & Inception), &
Louis Mandylor (My Big Fat Greek Wedding
& CSI).
