    GLL anyone know

    I guess Jerry, who was probably really Gerry Lewis has probably passed on. Does anyone know for sure. I met him once when I lived in southern California. He was older than me and I'm 68 now, so.........

    He was always a good read and he loved .38-44s. I really miss his input on this forum.........

    No, GLL was a member here. He was a geology professor, I think at UCLA. He had a lot of input into the early group buy molds from Lee. When we were in search of the real Keith bullets.................

    Look up his posts. He was interesting....

    He had some great looking revolvers and took amazing pictures. If he has passed, I am sorry for that loss.

    I've been wondering what happened to GLL - Yes his revolver photos were great. Hope he's still right side up

    Yes, I am sorry. I now remember with your reminder. It was Pasadena. He came out to Corona and picked up a 357431 mold I had and used it to make some bullets for input into the catshooter group buy molds. He asked if he could pour some bullets for himself and I agreed. He returned it by mail with about 10 pounds of nearly perfect 160gr Keith HPs. Good guy...............

    I am so happy to report that I got a PM from GLL and he has been sick but is better and is getting back into shooting. He will be welcome back here if he chooses to post........
