Member Posts: 35,490 ✭✭✭
is now in the firearms business. He appeared at the N.H.R.A. Spring Nationals toting his new business. His logo Jesse James Firearms Unlimited adorned the top fuel dragster driven by J.R. Todd and owned by Connie Kalitta. The car had a giant sized AR-15 painted on the side of the car. He stated that the company built guns devoted towards both military and civilian use. The car lost in the first round.

That guy is a complete nut case...[xx(]
Yep, and I think his choppers are butt ugly too.
Can't abide a man that so disrespects his marriage he gets caught not with one but with multiple ss<EXPLETIVE DELETED>y, s<EXPLETIVE DELETED>s and w<EXPLETIVE DELETED>s.

What did you expect?
Hang with a loser. You become a loser.
As for JJ bikes, well, he has made millions from them. He has probably made more money than all of us put together so somebody likes them. As with all builders, I like some of his bikes and don't like others.
Someone posted a few months back about him getting into the firearms business. One would think that any so called 2nd Amendment supporter would be all for someone starting up a new firearms manufacturer. I can only hope he does great. Wish more people would start manufacturing firearms. If I had the knowledge and money I would open a company manufacturing single shot rifles and handguns. I love Contenders, Encores, Ruger# 1s and Sharps.
I think is is funny how some comment about things they know nothing about. None of you know him or anything about him. Same with Sandra. Looks don't mean crap in a marriage. Sandra could be the biggest * in history. None of us know.

Exactly
In another way, I can't help but laugh at the guys here that would have a hard time putting a pedal bike together without instructions, or still haven't figured out that it doesn't require an act of God to reassemble a Ruger Standard .22 pistol.
But, by all means, throw the first stone.[;)]

LMAO So you know everyone he sells to personally?
As far as his new venture building AR's, well, congrats, hope that works out well for him, maybe it'll lead to a new TV program to compete with the red jacket guys, not my thing in any way, but many people will love it

+1 I agree, lots of gun rights supporters are their own worst enemies. Many of them just run down their own kind.

As for his personal life, that's between him, God and the people he interracts with directly......
He HAS been wildly successful in the custom bike arena, I don't think there's ANY disputing that....

He associates with Banditos, that tells me all I need to know in regards to his character. He's a fantastic artist IMO, I like his work, a role model??? not so much.
Seems to be idolized by the other nutbags out there.
I figure he's a direct competition for Red Jacket for dressing up the guns on Discovery Channel. I personally liked that show Monster Garage.
Some of that stuff was fun to see build...[;)]

I've met a dozen of the clowns who buy that sort of junk. If it happens to be sunny on Saturday they get out their ridiculous-looking over-priced ergonomic nightmare of an ill-handling, back breaking chartreuse green toy and ride it up to the WalMart parking lot two miles up the road, then turn around and come home before dark and stick it back into the garage. Speaking of L'ing MAO.
What a loser!
I dont think Kat Von D was the one he got caught with. She was a nasty blonde looking postitute. On that I'd take Kat over Sandra any day just as I'd take Angelina over Jennifer.As Confederate Railroad said, " I like my women a little on the trashy side".
really ?

Poor Kimber.[:(]
Edit At least he named it right "Heartbreaker".
I will say that he seems to have enjoyed life to the fullest after he became a public figure and has done things many here (myself included) can only dream about.
Now as far as money is concerned, Jesse is now married to Alexis DeJoria. Her father is worth BILLIONS and is seventy years old.

I spent several years in the Fine Gun business and I have had the pleasure of taking a magnifying glass to some of the best engraving in the world, great engraving from names like Angelo Bee and J.R. French get much better the closer that you get. But the engraving on that poor Kimber, wow, I have seen 12 year old apprentice engravers at AYA that could do cleaner and more accurate work
Some months ago when we last discussed his new firearms business I went to his website then he was only selling parts to dress up guns.
