    Unhappy Brshooter has passed.

    Dano67 and I were called to a pickup/dump truck fatal accident today. Took me a minute to put the town the deceased was from, his truck and the Gatling gun in the back together. Brshooter was killed instantly in the head on collision.

    Wow, prayers sent for his family, there certainly couldn't have been many folks driving in your area with a GG.

    He checked in here this morning as I imagine was his usual manner. May he have a pristine GG and a everlasting supply of ammo with a sunny seat at the range in Heaven. Rest in peace.

    I didn't know the gentleman but I'll kick in $5 so we can send them a wreath. Or a donation if that is more needed.

    A St. Lawrence County man died Friday morning after his pickup collided head-on with a dump truck.

    State police said 63 year old Jon Frary of 48 Ogden Street in Waddington was killed in the crash on State Route 37 in the town of Lisbon shortly before 11:30 a.m.

    Police said Frary’s vehicle crossed into the path of a dump truck driven by 48 year old Terry Smith of 5130 County Route 6 in Ogdensburg.

    Frary was pronounced dead at the scene.

    Smith was treated at Claxton Hepburn Medical Center for chest pains.

    The cause of Frary’s death was pending an autopsy.

    Our balance sheet should easily cover a arrangement, Bret will make sure his family and friends are aware of our concern.

    I created a new area for threads such as this, I never imagined the need for one previously however the tally of our family here grows and so our forum will honor those that are at heavens range.
    May he rest in peace.

    Damn, this sucks and strikes way too close to home. And how freakish is it that one ( or two ) of our board members must respond to an accident involving another board member????? Count me in on the memorial/wreath from the board. My condolences to the family.


    And as an aside, thank you to Bret and Dano67 from a fellow NYS resident for the job you do day in and out and how many times that job must be nearly impossible to bear. Stay strong and thank you.

    Oh, my.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Jon and I shared many an e-mail together before and since I deployed. I am saddened to hear about his death. I will have my wife send a card for me from Watertown.

    He was so happy the day he got his Gatling Gun. He had been waiting a long time for it to be built and I was looking forward to seeing it and talking to him again when I got back.

    Sorry to hear, he was one poster that I enjoyed reading. What is the customary donation around here?
