Jim Duncan was a wonderful gunsmith (Notch Pass Gunworks), an artist with wood whether it was stock making, fine cabinetry, or customs french doors. He was an ardent boolit caster especially for his beloved 45/70's and his Mausers. He was my friend and we had plans to spend the winter in his shop creating a full maple stock of his dreamed-of Pennsylvania flintlock while he would help me with carving my maple stock for a T/C Seneca. He will be greatly missed. Fair winds and following seas to a fine gentleman. He was much too young to pass.
