American actor Chuck Connors was one of the few athletes who played both Pro Baseball and in the National Basketball Association. In 1952 the Chicago Cubs sent Connors to the minor leagues to play for their top farm team, the Los Angeles Angels. Is it possible he paid a visit to Bob Mizer's Athletic Model Guild compound in LA? Playing baseball near Hollywood proved fortunate, as he was spotted by an MGM casting director and subsequently signed for the 1952 Tracy–Hepburn film Pat and Mike, performing in the role of a police captain. He is best known for the hit Western TV series The Rifleman, which ran from from 1958 to 1963.

  1. Couldn't be anyone else...but Bob Mizer reduces him to standard AMG trash...

  2. Don't think these pics are The Rifleman:

    Charles Connors: Physique Pictorial 30 (Aug 1977) p. 9: “Chuck is 19 born October 29, 1956 in Springfield Mo but raised in New Braunfels Texas. [height] 5’5 154 works as a mason but would like to be a movie star. Uses wts. Travels all over the country.”

    Kevin Joseph Aloysius "Chuck" Connors (“Lucas McCain” The Rifleman), Wikipedia: “… born on April 10, 1921 in Brooklyn, New York City … Height 6 ft 6 in … [The Rifleman] aired from 1958 to 1963 … "

    1. No way to be 100% sure that this model is really Chuck Connors, but Mizer often reprinted his earlier photos in Physique Pictorial during the 1970's. I own a copy of PP volume 31 dated August 1978 which includes models from the 1950's wearing posing straps and often refers to the age of the models "when this picture was taken" and offers photo sets and films for sale from those older shoots. On page 23 there is a photo of US Marine John Davidson wrestling another model, both in posing straps. Davidson was killed in Vietnam long before this book was published, and the US left Vietnam in 1975.

      Also, he doesn't look 19 years old in these photos, more like the early 30's he would have been when he moved to Hollywood and began his acting career in 1952. Plus it sure looks like him, and I don't trust Bob Mizer to tell the gospel truth about his models. All the episodes of "The Rifleman" can be viewed for free on YouTube, by the way. Not a bad show, even with all the blammity blam blam going on; the cinematography is great especially in the first season when Sam Peckinpaugh was directing, and just about every character actor whose face you recognize puts in an appearance, from Michael Landon to Agnes Moorehead.

  3. Amazing series! I have seen two or three of these photos, but never even knew there were so many. The name plate essentially removes any doubt I had that they were actually Chuck Connors, and it's interesting that the sports shots mirror the sports he actually played. Too bad it's not Mizer's best work, though.

  4. Years ago when I was in college, I saw a hetero porn film with him in it. He got his cock sucked and dog fucked some female. His cock looked good stiff and his foreskin rolled back when it was hard. It was one of those old 8 mm grainy films. He pulled out and shot jiz all over the female's back and ass...quite a load, too. I wonder, after seeing these pix, if he did any male-male porn.

  5. The RIFLEMAN was tall as shit.
    The problem with tall, is your nude normal-sized penis looks smaller, in relation.
    Chuck Connors WAS uncut, and as a few tight britches shots proved, nicely hung.
    No JOHN Ireland, mind you, but, very nicely hung anyway.
