Sad news to hear, I never met him, but we had corresponded concerning his converting 2 rim fire Martinis into center fire for me. Since he had a mule it was going to be a painless no FFL hassle deal. I have always enjoyed his posts and the depth of knowledge and experience he brought to the table. While he will be sorely missed by us all, my heart goes out to his family and their loss.
