He was my gunsmith!!
He had a one man shop in his garage in Lucadia Ca.
Was a pistol smith extraordinary and a rifle smith with few piers.
He bought a new Lathe to extend his boring and sleeving operation and while leveling it ,it fell and crushed him.
There so few "Gunsmiths" in California and he will be sorily missed by all who knew him
I know I shall as he and I spent a lot of hours just jawing about guns.

R.I.P. Ron - he was the best in the San Diego area and a wealth of knowledge. He had just done the trigger on my 39a a few weeks before the accident.
If you find anyone good enough to take his place be sure to let me know. Pretty much every one of us at the Pala range are "lost in the woods" now that he is gone...
Fair Skies Ron.
